REMOTE Winter Fishing and Camping on a GIANT RIVER!! (Catch and Cook)

I love the case of busch light in the back 😆. When you see the busch light you know it's gonna be a good video! 🎣😎

Letterkenny reference only solidifies my admiration To Be Fairrr it has never waned! Nice Feesh , props to your Bubs for putting up with the constant Bro Shots wish I could Feesh with my Bro 1 more time ! C'mon baseball!

[@RiverCertified]

Glad you enjoyed it. I hope to get many more trips in with my brother for that reason and many more. It's a ton of fun when he's out there. Baseball is getting closer!

[@C_JAdventures]

Man you're living the life! Family, friends, great food big fish. Couldn't ask for much better! and yea big blues are mean, when they roll is the absolute worse. You can always tell when a fisherman had a good day when his thumbs all tore up!

[@RiverCertified]

I'm pretty dang blessed man. Blues are probably the orneriest of the catfish haha

[@C_JAdventures]

@@RiverCertified living the American dream my friend! And 110%!

[@lonesomekennels5047]

Yet again you show us a good time, Spencer. Fishing, especially catfishing is about far more than catching fish. Keep em coming brother man.

[@RiverCertified]

I have to agree. Catfishing definitely makes it easier to make the trip less about the catching and more about the experience and people you're spending your time with. Probably what makes it my favorite!

[@emeryjohnson1264]

Same here I love the relaxation until the poles start getting bit and the rest of the time you're too busy fighting fish to be able to do anything else.

[@vinceh5163]

Awesome camp fishing video, best part was the jibber/jabbering between brothers and buddy and let's not forget the cooking and eating! Do more of these and bring woody...

[@RiverCertified]

I'm glad ya enjoyed it all. I'll have my brother on the water next month. Definitely looking forward to that.

Spence!! Dude!! I think I have told you this already but just in case I'm gonna tell you again. You have got to get some Franks Red Hot seasoning powder. Its basically Red Hot in powder form. Just sprinkle a good coat on your fish before breading and fry. A lot less messy and gives an awesome flavor, better than the sauce, not sure why buy you gotta try it. Great video brother keep em coming.

[@RiverCertified]

I've been meaning to get some, but I keep forgetting. I'll remember next time I'm at the grocery store one of these days. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@attitudeadjusted9027]

Looked like a great trip. The trail dikes with blowouts always seem better the wing dikes, for us down here anyway. Side sonar is crucial. Those were the top side of good eaters. Oh and tell James sitting on cold rocks will give ya piles😲 Great vid and keep your powder dry and your pantry stocked young man 💪😎🙏

All great stuff sir. I'll be sure to pass that along to James haha. I hope you do the same sir!

Hi. I just found your channel. It's great. Was wondering on the tracker. I saw the boat is running the multi bar racks. How did the racks gets mounted on. Is it mounted into the plywood with a plate under it? I have a lund I'm wanting to possibly add this system too, but the mounting location is wood. All the boats I see running this rack system it always mounted to a all aluminum boat. This is the first boat I've seen where it looks to be mounted to wood? not aluminum. Thanks Tommy

[@RiverCertified]

It's screwed into the wood. It will work, but not nearly as secure. James plans on adding a backing plate I believe, but for now it's just screwed down
