Catching HUGE FISH On A Desolate River!! (Overnight Kayak Camping)

[@ChasingtheMoby]

It was a ton of fun to fish with you Spencer. Glad you could come down and fish my neck of the woods! Come again any time!

[@allenagainst]

How the heck am I gonna get KZbin famous, when you're over here getting you tube famous!? 😂😂 awesome video man!

I like this!

[@jakethecomrade]

Yes!

[@mattwilliams1450]

Glad to see the both of y'all fishing together, 2 of my favorite channels

[@williambenner701]

The audio wasn't so bad. I mean when you have wind, you will have sound issues. Some very nice blue cats! Very enjoyable video.

[@randall517]

Awesome to see you back out in a kayak. Had mine out the other day and caught 4 nice channels. No flatheads yet this year though.

[@RiverCertified]

I hope to be out in mine a bunch. Hopefully Mother Nature plays nice this year.

[@sly-1429]

Spencer it's that time of the year!!!! GO CUBS GO!!!!

[@houstonmade8327]

You should make a video on what rod and reel combo you prefer to use .Also should show how you rig your poles up ! Great video

[@shawnt9256]

Another fine River Certified Production

[@dangledstash]

First! I love these kayaking/camping videos! Been missing them over the long winter!

[@catfish573]

Was totally surprised and delighted to see you and Austin fishing together. Have been watching you both for a good while. He has some good water there.

[@saltinecrackers9640]

Just wondering when you and your peps will have a shrooms catch and cook again .👍on the boat

[@PatriciaPowell-id2iv]

Excellent fishing trip Spencer. That big blue cat was a nice fish glad you were able to catch it. Sure do enjoy these videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@owenpowell102]

Definitely recommend cutting out the plastic well in the front hatch of your Shoalie, it gives you a lot more storage space inside the boat. Plus you can store up to 9ft spinning rods in it when you open it up. That’s where most of my camping gear and a couple longer rods go when I’m doing overnighters.

[@RiverCertified]

That's exactly what I did. Cool I'm not the only one.

[@doingitwithdylan8851]

Went river camping this past weekend caught two small flats and a solid 20s blue cat

[@williamboyd776]

Thanks for sharin Spence. No flattie this time, but that fattie blue was nice. Happy fishin my friend God bless

[@daveward1935]

That stretch of water must be downstream of Morales dam near Yuma, AZ. On the Colorado river.

[@jakejohnson9533]

Oklahoma

[@daveward1935]

@@jakejohnson9533 Yeh, figured from the soil color, but couldn't help not being a smart alec. Won't ask for specifics. I did fish below Morales in the early eighties.... DON'T go there.

[@joegrande4848]

Hip wader boots help. I'm getting myself a pair. I've used knee high rain boots. If tides low ill walk out a bit to get my line out further into deeper water.

[@TheDetroitman20]

Sound was fine. Great content and thanks as always for sharing brother!! 👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾🙂💯

[@comiketiger]

Fun stuff! Thanks for taking us along. God bless all here

[@RiverCertified]

Absolutely. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@zbreeden7622]

Great times, just had a blustery Sunday bank fishing the Osage, but the bait feeders on the penn fierce did great with the big blues

[@bertog-2023]

Hell yes. Appreciate you sharing. I couldn't wait for you to get back on the kayak 😊. Good video

[@RiverCertified]

Glad ya still enjoyed it man

[@PaulLorenzini-ny2yw]

Looked a little green and hazy out there bro, a beautiful sunny day, cheers!

[@KansasFishingOutdoors]

I just want you to know you are doing a fantastic job absolutely love all your videos

[@jeffreyneely9283]

Hey you done great ,had no problem watching y'all have fun .Dang nice fish . Totally great video...

[@billcotton1551]

I had a 17 inch smallmouth bass tow my kayak last weekend. I can't imagine the sleighride those blue cats would give.

[@ztemde978]

Nice trip! What luck finding those keys! Thanks for sharing.

[@RiverCertified]

You bet. Thanks for watching!

[@RyanSchultz_]

Do you use Okuma coldwater 203s or 303s for flatheads?

[@RiverCertified]

203s. Just switched to fathom 15s though.

[@RadicalLinguisticDescriptivism]

looks like fun! the kayak looked fun too. The wind was noticeable but not unwatchable. Tech issues are my middle name so I feel your pain there...

[@dextersgarden404]

Can hear you fine, bro. The video is stellar as always.

[@tadhghayden8440]

Hunting party at night some nice fish interesting terrain... Imagine a 100 lb flat head!

[@jakethecomrade]

Great video as always!

[@blueghost6967]

Idk if you ever considered trying to snag sooonbill/paddlefish in northeastern Oklahoma. Prehistoric fish that’s lots of fun, big fish and fun trying to land. Fish on!

[@RiverCertified]

Yeah, I used to live in Muskogee and snagged em on the neosho. Definitely a fun fish.

[@blueghost6967]

@@RiverCertified I have family in Muskogee, I live around low water dam. Spoonbill are starting to pop up around here, maybe you should take somebody that doesn’t know anything about that fish and let them take a nice gander on it. Crazy that they don’t have much bones if any other than their head!!

[@FishingNature87]

I can tell you guys are gonna have a lot of fun fishing together and getting to know each other more from watching his videos you both are a lot alike especially when it comes to fishing for catfish lol

[@RiverCertified]

We definitely had a good time. Hopefully I can make it down that way again. Thanks for watching man!

[@shawnt9256]

Alot of work on your part to take us along,it's appreciated here in Cincinnati...

You got that right!

[@kylegrosvenor772]

Ahhhhh the plastic boat fishing vids are back. Summer is coming. Good one man. I'm jelly still gotta fix my yak lmao 🤣

[@HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy]

this looks like the bear river in Utah. Pretty sure we got some dirt ol' blues in there, along with shit fish like carp.

[@cortygrams3891]

🔥🔥🔥!

[@bretgeidel613]

The WST ice rods work nice on kayaks.

[@jbhodj2012]

Spence you always seem to sniff out the best little rivers. What’s your method on finding these little gems

[@RiverCertified]

I guess I'm not scared to take a risk of not catching anything. Plus I've been traveling to places like this long before I ever made videos.

[@Wabes_1]

Small mouth Buffalo Fish, and Blue cats , all looked great.

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks 👍

[@frozen6787]

Im thoroughly intrigued about his new rods that he built. i would love to hear more about those and how he did it. maybe in a one off video or something.

[@RiverCertified]

I built myself a set of 4. I'm really diggin' em so far.

[@KayakKid]

If you’re ever coming through Oklahoma, I’ve got a few river spots we can hit up!

[@dannymayo298]

I just got a Shoalie too! I plan to take my up and down the Iowa River.

[@RiverCertified]

Haha glad ya got a kick outta it Steve!

[@subaquaticsleepwalker7240]

I’m always glad that I took the time to watch one of your videos. Another good fishy watch ty. My fave of this one is the Buffalo! I’m a fan of these native fish. A bucket list item of mine is to catch a huge albino one. This way anytime someone approaches me when I’m fishing I can say I’m hunting the great white Buffalo. I crack me up. But I do love Buffaloes. Under appreciated field of endeavor. My other kind of odd ball fan boi fish is the yellow and brown bullheads we have here in Washington state. They only run a couple pounds but on two pound line it’s pretty fun. Can’t wait for the next one viejo. Take care of yourself, drink until you pee.

[@subaquaticsleepwalker7240]

Oh btw I thought you might be interested in the mfr website they’re blowing out certain nice bait-casters. CI-354LXa $88 CI-273LXa $68 I’m gonna pick up one of each. Catch a giant buddy.

So do you sink the live bait to the bottom, or let it swim with no weight? Im curious.

[@Brunnen_Gee]

Man I want to get out on my kayak again so bad. Problem is, we're going to have 11-45mph winds for the next week or so. I couldn't even do anything this past weekend because of it. Frickin sucks.

[@EFTProf]

Wow. That all looked seriously muddy! Yuck... 🤓👍

[@HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy]

Hey Sir, you fishing medium heavy rods? they look pretty stout.

[@RiverCertified]

I'd probably call em a MH, but I haven't decided yet.

[@HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy]

@RiverCertified well shoot, if you get to pick, spice it up a bit. Medium rare ultra tonka fish face poking...weight. That sounds good in my head, hah!

[@fishingnightnday]

Wind noise is authenticity. Since it is an amazing day, of course I can't go out. Thank you for the view today. Also, for your daily dose of humor, in you copious amounts of spare time on my channel "teaching a grown man to fish" is hysterical

[@gohryu2004]

What rod blanks are you using for your catfish rod builds? They look great!

[@RiverCertified]

They're some generic 9 foot fiberglass blanks I cut down to 7'6" at the action I wanted.

[@gohryu2004]

@@RiverCertified thank you. What poundage are the original rods? The whisker seekers I saw online were rated 10-50pounds. I've been scouring Internet sites trying to find medium action rod blanks like that so I was wondering what were the rod stats you finally settled on? I like 7'6" to 8' rod blanks as well! Mostly I build on Calstar, and old St. Croix blanks and rebuild Ugly Stik blanks to fit my uses.
