River, kayak, fishing...yes please.

[@RiverCertified]

Hell yes

[@troywehr4029]

Dude, when you first got your big boat I was so stoked for you and appreciated the fact that you got one and were enjoying it. Can't wait to get mine up and running. But I am as equally stoled to see more of these type videos this spring. You da Man, Man!

[@RiverCertified]

Glad ya dig em all man. Thankfully I love the boat and the kayak.

[@troywehr4029]

@@RiverCertified yeah man! As a boat and canoe guy, no matter how awesome the boat, small vessels just seem more adventurous. Anyways, you da Man, Man! Tight lines!

[@Mak-Talon90]

I religiously follow you and two other fishermen on KZbin and you have the kindest subscribers I’ve seen!

[@RiverCertified]

That's pretty cool to hear man. It sure makes putting out videos more fun.

[@4digitfishing]

Loved that camera transition at the beginning using the tree. Editing level 100

[@RiverCertified]

I try to utilize all my resources 😆

[@patriciapowell3824]

Another fine video Spencer. That Flathead was a beauty. Thanks for sharing I sure enjoy watching. Stay safe and God bless you and yours 😊😊😊😊

[@jimharbison7589]

Another great video and you got dinner, thanks for the trip Spencer

[@QCBrian..]

this is perfect example of when "fishin" becomes "catchin", great video and environment, we still getting a bunch of storms down here in KY.ugh

[@waterratlyle2590]

Love to see the old spencer videos back. Kayak getting fish out of the brush. Awesome job as always.

[@RicardoHaruoIriguti]

That two bites from that flathead was awesome! Hope you’ve made it back to the ramp in time. Thanks for sharing, Spencer!

[@RiverCertified]

It's funny how ya fish all day without much action and then you find a fish so tuned up he bites twice. I made it back just in time. Thanks for watching man!

[@YFZMoto]

Nice to see good water for you this year after so many years with no water.

[@RiverCertified]

It's a breath of fresh air. Thanks man.

[@TheDetroitman20]

Best part about Monday. Thanks my friend!! 👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾🙂💯

[@RiverCertified]

You're the man!

[@brianbenedict8374]

AS usual awesome my friend. I have always watched you on my cell but just bought a lap top. Watching you on a larger screen priceless! See you tomorrow!

[@matthewdean8070]

Awwwww, the content that brought me to this channel, Going Kayaking next week w/ 5 friends/family for 5 days, Buffalo National River if the rain holds.

[@shadrowe6636]

Big boat vids are cool but these are the vids I subscribed for.

[@tterbay]

Amen

[@kalyanbean5526]

These videos are what got me into fishing last year. I would love to see more of your rod set up for catching live bait. Hook sizes, weights etc. that would be a great for a beginner like me to get some live bait. Awesome videos man!

[@bigmikeluch3589]

A super string of kayak, small stream catfishing!!! Nice flathead too!!! Thank you!!! 🐟

[@pigsandapples]

The greatest opening to a fishing video ever.. I felt like my head had been bashed by that log and was seeing stars...and then your dry "you guys ok?" comment. Hahah

[@RiverCertified]

Glad you got a kick outta that one. I was laughing while I was editing it haha

[@djbarker2536]

I just got my first kayak yesterday. I’m super excited to test it out on fishing!

[@weedhopper]

🤣 edible one....well....previously edible hahaha that channel cat said not today Spencer and he gone!! 🤣

[@RiverCertified]

He used all the moves and it worked well for him haha

[@Doug-qh6et]

So this is the only fishing channel that I am addicted to... I truly feel like I learn and really wanna fish every time I watch. Keep it up man

[@RiverCertified]

Hell yeah man. Glad you enjoy it!

[@scottgarber7363]

Your videos inspired me to do some catfishing. Just took a family vacation to northern CA and caught a bunch of 10-12 pound channels. Not big for your standards, but every family member that caught one, including myself had a new PB. Will keep you posted on my progress. Lol Going for big blues in the local reservoirs Friday.

[@recordhuntertv9921]

Listening to the cubs get smoked by the brewers? Lol love the adventures!

[@RiverCertified]

You are correct haha. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@recordhuntertv9921]

@@RiverCertified been watching for years bud! If you ever come to Wisconsin, I know some places for all fish and love rivers as much as you!

[@EthanPageHunter]

Got some great small rivers down around me. I’m only a little ways south of you in North MO. Great video as always man.

[@RiverCertified]

I have a list I plan on chipping away at very soon. Like next week haha

[@roberthowe5315]

Definitely enjoyed the video stay safe on that raising water Spencer

[@ryanpaulsen5603]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has to finish the song every time I hear "it's tricky!"

[@yukiinglis4948]

Love watching your videos, even though you're a Cubby fan...lol! I am happy to see My Birds on the bat ahead of the Cubs in the standings.. even if it's just by a slim margin! Keep it up!

[@RyanMOutdoors]

Ahhhh. Listening to a ballgame and fishing and catching. It doesn't get any sweeter than that!

[@RiverCertified]

Definitely my preferred way to spend an evening. Thanks for watching!

[@Fatherhogg]

Oooo my head lol thanks for yelling duck 😂 keep on catching my friend

[@RiverCertified]

😆😆😆

[@travishanger8604]

You and Josh are racing to 169k.... Let's go. Thanks for another great video

[@ryanbortzbluecollarlife]

Now your fishing like a real man 😂 welcome back to the cool kids club

[@RiverCertified]

🤣🤣🤣

[@boxingstarcmbballer8797]

I can’t believe you didn’t get a flathead tattoo on your leg . What’s up with the baitfish instead ? A carp 😂 I cut them up for blue cats and occasional flathead bite .

[@sistaslab3159]

Awesome video love watching 😊

[@daveallover]

Definitely in your element. Looks good

[@Hookedonfishing.]

I love the videos don’t ever stop making them lol😂

[@pabllam8017]

Boy, this was a fun trip. I get nervous when you pull and bend over the sides of that little thing. Dinner was hard to come by, but sure worth the effort. Stay safe

[@RiverCertified]

Those kayaks are more stable than they look thankfully. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@TheRiverBugProject]

im heading out in the mornibg to hopefully do this lol thanks for the video

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks a ton!

[@coyroberts8356]

Thanks 😊

[@DaltonKillman]

Have you ever thought about drifting some bait as you go up/down the river?? I’ve caught hundreds of flats and channels just by drifting in between spots on the river.

[@ffemtp830]

Always happy when you getting back to the old ways. Lol about to do a 3 day trip myself.

[@StayFreeRelax]

I'm sorry but when the look on your face changing when you realized that it wasn't a flathead and when the situation changed to "was an edible fish" was just hilarious. You can't make that stuff up. Thank you for another informative and entertaining video Spencer.

[@RiverCertified]

I'm just glad you get a kick outta it haha.

[@mattwiederholt7258]

My best flathead spot is one josh took you to last year and yea… the visibility right now is half an inch at best currently, these rains every other day have all of our rivers and canals hard to fish

[@jamesatkinson8130]

Loved the video wish i could fish with ya man i could learn alot from yea

I always look forward to your next video..

[@RiverCertified]

Glad to hear it man

[@keenejoel]

Very nice fish!! Like how you give us Iowans a taste of what's in our waters. I have a question, I notice when you fish logs brush piles you fish the front side and not much on the back side of them, what's the science behind that? Does the slack water behind them not hold fish? Thanks again!!

[@roberthall843]

Lol Great intro bro. Lol. Always great to see you fishing in a yak

[@RiverCertified]

Glad you got a kick outta that man

You Spencer got me to do the kayak fishing. I’ve watched you for 3 years your videos are great. I have one question and what’s the life jacket you use? Keep it up and tight lines.

[@RiverCertified]

That's awesome man. I use the bass pro AM 24 life jacket. They go on sale quite a bit, so it's a good thing to keep an eye out for.

[@ArticulateStudder]

Love the kayak videos dude. Shooting for a guided experience in 2025!

If you are ever in central alabama looking for a spot to fish holler at me! I live by the cahaba river right around where it dumps into the Alabama river and we fish stuff that looks exactly like what you are fishing! Would love to get the chance to fish with you!

[@RiverCertified]

I almost hauled my kayak down there in April. If you're serious, shoot me a message on FB or IG.

@@RiverCertified I am absolutely serious! Shooting you a message now!

MY RIVER RAT BROTHER I WANNA GO FISHING 🎣 WITH YOU TOO!!!! 😢 😂

[@donjulio3200]

Randomly odd question. When you are kayaking / boating or camping out on the smaller rivers / creeks do you ever come across any bison bones, skulls or even mastodon teeth / bones or native American artifacts? Love to go hiking the sandbars and creeks and have had great luck over the years finding these things in plain sight sometimes.

[@RiverCertified]

I don't, but I'm not usually paying that kind of attention either.

[@rsgns6541]

Love the videos man! What kinda of kayak do you use?

[@RiverCertified]

Hell yeah man! I got a crescent shoalie. Pricey but I love it.

[@tterryshenanigans1820]

I've had a shit day but it's better now, thanks for asking.

[@RiverCertified]

Glad to hear it man

[@nameistrever71498]

new to the channel, going to be watching all of the vids i can tell already and, you probably hear this all the time, you remind me of chael sonnen 😅 stud

[@RiverCertified]

It is kinda funny how much that pops up. I'm not as tough as him haha

[@gagetaylor769]

I think we need a kayak rig update. I can’t imagine much has changed but with new model I’m sure you’ve made some improvements/changes

[@RiverCertified]

That's a good idea. I'll work it into my next video.

[@tziegler5715]

So I’m assuming when you paddle downstream, you also have to paddle back upstream or do you have somebody meet you downstream to pull out? Because of you I got a kayak and fish the Kaw river in Kansas. It took me an hour and 20 minutes to paddle a mile up river and about 15 minutes to get back, what a nightmare.

[@ericallison4494]

[@goodnightliberty]

As my dad said to me when i pulled my sunfish too quick on a flatty the other night, "They're not that smart, get it back out there"
