This MUDDY River Was LOADED!! (Cold Weather Kayak Fishing)

Best part about paddling upriver to fish is you get to float back.

Not once have I ever watched your videos without leaving in a good mood. That says a lot.

[@RiverCertified]

I really do appreciate you taking the time to tell me that. Thanks man.

That’s a great winter fishing day, Spencer, the blues were hungry! Hope the big flathead shows up, you deserve one! Thanks for sharing!

[@RiverCertified]

I appreciate that man. I'm gonna keep chipping away at them. I have a few more adventures planned yet.

[@jimharbison7589]

You showed why you like to fish this time of the year ,the fish are tuned up for sure ,thanks for the trip Spencer

It aint for everyone, but I definitely think it's a whole lot of fun. Thanks for watching!

[@patrickvaugn897]

I've had days where I catch one fish on one type of bait and had to change type of bait to get another bite. Learning to alternate between 3 different types of bait to keep catching fish out of the same hole

[@RiverCertified]

I try to fish different baits on every rod, but a lot of that just depends on what kind of bait I can get.

The poopiest of poopy rivers. Lol Good video brother. I got man handled by a big ugly today while we were Crappie fishin on Cumberland. I got him out of the tree once, but he took me right back in it. I had 4 pound test. Not ideal...lol Caught a nice mess of delicious Crappie, tho. A 16", 3 or 4 15s. Good bunch of 10 and up. It was a good day!

[@JakieRhodes-lb6dv]

Great show again, hope you make it down here sometime, we got giants in Beaver, Grand lake,Ufala, ten killer, and down where I showed you the photos, Lake Millwood, and Lake pattmon,in Texas. And that's a great wife you got your right, man you've got everything, hold on to her tight bro❤😂😂😂

Come fish the brazos or navasota river with us sometime down here in Texas! Got plenty of land accessible to the water with miles of river to fish

[@RiverCertified]

I'm gonna check those areas out this spring. If you know some people that own some dirt that would let us access the river, shoot me an email at [e-mail]. I'd appreciate the help.

[@MsKindaSorta]

To be honest, when I saw this river I actually said, “Damn that looks a lot like The Brazos!” I’m in AR now but lived in TX for decades. Lake Livingston also has huge flatheads. I think they call them Opelousas as a nickname.

[@Natures_Edge_Outdoors]

@@RiverCertified yessir I sure will, I know a few people who would be more than willing to let us, or you access it.

[@RiverCertified]

I try to focus on positive things, and there ain't much positive on what the media focuses on. I'm always thinking about catching big ones haha.

I feel for Chris, paddling up river on the old town can be a work out! I learned real quick, don't be in a hurry on that kayak lol. Also how you liking the Hell Kat rods? My wife got me Whisker Seeker rods (I couldn't decide but knew I really liked the WS as my cousin uses them).

[@RiverCertified]

Those aren't the most agile kayaks in the world. I'm digging the hell cat. I very nice balance of backbone and forgiveness on the top half of the rod. Can't go wrong with a WS either, especially the MH.

Cool video man! Heading to St. Louis this spring and hoping to get into some cats. What's the spike you're using for your kayak?

[@haroldcooper3428]

Brother need to ask about a trolling motor. I have a 10' flat bottom, what size trolling motor would you get to push the boat up moving water. I trust your opinion.

[@RiverCertified]

I'd get a bow mount 80 lb thrust 24 v terrova and get a 100 amp 24 volt lithium battery. Im using epoch batteries and love them. It would be a pricier option, but you would have spotlock and if you get a bigger boat down the road, you could move it to that one.

[@muddymo7641]

Was that yellow rod at the beginning a med or med/heavy?

A medium.
