Fishing By A HAUNTED DAM!!! (We caught a giant)

[@MarkFox]

Thank you for the Woody update, so glad to hear the Cancer was removed! I love seeing both Woody and Skip out on the water with you. ❤

[@RiverCertified]

You bet! They're a pretty laid back crew on the water.

[@KunesRGr8]

Hello 👋 Spencer and Micka, I really like watching each of your individual channels, but I especially like watching you two together. You two have to be the most symbiotic team I’ve seen yet. Thank you for sharing and taking the time to film for our pleasure 👍💪🙌🌈✌️

[@RiverCertified]

I'm glad you enjoy when we fish together. Micka is a great dude. We have plans to do a whole bunch more sooner than later.

[@clydecantrell9975]

Glad to hear Woody is doing good. Love Skip and Woody

[@RiverCertified]

He's a tough ol' dog, but he's doing great. I'm glad you get a kick outta them.

[@billcotton1551]

Skip still has his buddy, Woody! Great news! Love those dogs. Flathead was a beast!

[@darrenangle4493]

Awesome video Spencer. I love when you guy get together and fish. You both get along so well. Also super happy to hear Woody is doing well again. Pets are like our own children. They depend on us so much and we really get upset when they aren't feeling well. Thanks for sharing.

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks for all the kind words Darren. Micka is a great dude and lot of fun to fish with.

[@pablo10447]

Hey to two of my favorite people in 1 video!!! That’s awesome to see!!! Sorry to hear about Woody but glad he got it removed and hope he has a speedy recovery!! Hope you catch a big one!

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks, man! I appreciate all that.

[@darrelllykins8754]

Thanks for the awesome content as always. Sooo happy to hear Woody is doing well. Pets here are referred to as our children!

[@RiverCertified]

Woody is a better dog than I deserve. I'm glad you enjoyed the video man!

[@baggers-]

[@JoseyWales-ed]

[@RiverCertified]

Woody is doing good right now. I will still keep looking for those volkswagen sized ones.

[@pabllam8017]

Glad to see you getting a few nice ones. Hope your back feels better soon. Enjoyed the slower pace and no need to worry for your safety. Thank you. Stay safe.

[@RiverCertified]

Thank you very much. I really enjoy that place. It's a super cool fishing spot.

[@randylippert6416]

Glad to hear puppy is well, and great to see you and Micka sitting in the same boat great video Spencer 👍👍

[@RiverCertified]

He's doing great thanks for asking! Glad you enjoyed the video.

[@RicardoHaruoIriguti]

Nice to see Woody’s doing good. That’s a dandy of a flathead, Spencer, I hope the second part of this video is even better!

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks man. Ol' Woody is a tough dude. He never whines and keeps chugging along.

[@bidenhasdementia8657]

It does my heart good to see woody again. That's a romping dog!!! And very well behaved. I silently judge people based on how their dogs behave😂

[@RiverCertified]

Haha that makes 2 of us. Please don't judge too hard about Skip. He's the most stubborn dog I've ever met. At least, I think he's a dog.

[@LawrenceCostello-f3i]

Good to see you and Micka fishing again 👍. Awesome flathead, bro!

[@RiverCertified]

Appreciate that man. I'm always stoked to fish with Micka!

[@travishanger8604]

Happy Halloween to you and the whole Fam Damily. Glad to see Woody and really excited your fishing with Micka again. Can't wait to watch his channel grow over the next few years

[@patriciapowell3824]

[@randypittillo7272]

[@RiverCertified]

Thank you!

[@ledraps22]

24:00 You got cut off by a spooky MONSTER fish! That was a nice flathead, congrats! And that's wonderful woody is doing better. Please say hi to woody for me, also pet him, heck in fact just give him a good ol hug for me. Of course SKIP is the one to go after the armadillo!!!

[@RiverCertified]

Maybe it was Freddy Kruger haha. I've been giving Woody plenty of treats and attention. He's gained a few pounds haha

[@StonedDead1981]

What a guy, giving free catching lessons like that.

[@RiverCertified]

Haha I like to think I'm pretty thoughtfull like that

[@Volfor321]

Awesome video as always. That one cat had to be a MONSTER! Maybe even Volkswagen size hehe

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks man. I was pretty dang happy to get a cat like that.

[@terryrathmel7496]

By the way not sure i ever said I'm proud of u getting the new boat! U r definitely living my dream! The real difference is u had the balls to go for it! Man I tell ya I'm jelly, I'm driving a semi now to bank out, but I would much rather be living ur life! But again thanks for the videos so I can live through u!

[@RiverCertified]

I appreciate the kind words man. Hopefully you find some time to get on the water too.

[@trinityoutdoors]

[@RiverCertified]

Glad you enjoyed it man.

[@jimharbison7589]

You're still on big fish after the kayak tournament, great video thanks for the trip Spencer

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks Jim. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@atuuschaaw]

Cash Canyon? That was one sweet flathead! Good to see Woody doing so well. ♥

[@RiverCertified]

Not sure where that is. I was pretty excited when that fish popped up. Love those things. I appreciate that about Woody.

[@atuuschaaw]

​@@RiverCertified, I've always heard the Tennessee River Gorge called Cash Canyon.

[@RiverCertified]

@atuuschaaw didn't know that. Thanks for sharing that

[@christianmorgan5952]

😮 glad Woody's shaking back brother

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks man

It's solid stuff man. Thanks for watching!

[@marktracy2577]

I'm so stoked you are in Tennessee! Welcome! I live in Nashville but fish near there often.

[@RiverCertified]

It's a great place to fish, you're lucky to live near there!

[@dougstiehl3133]

Nice flathead catfish 🐟🎣

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks Doug!

[@royschlickeisen2539]

[@tonysimons7218]

I like the tag team vids! Bros helping bros🎉 great trip

[@RiverCertified]

I'm glad you liked it! Micka is a lot of fun to fish with.

[@chrismatsko6601]

My favorite holiday aswell. No better place to fish then a haunted prison 😅

[@RiverCertified]

Haha especially that one

[@Rango_TM]

Welcome back Woody!

[@RiverCertified]

He appreciates the welcome haha

[@timduke4616]

Why do I start to feel some type of way when Skip is staring at me, like he trying to fight or something 😂😂

[@RiverCertified]

He thinks he's a lot tougher than he actually is haha

[@everette6358]

Happy Halloween

[@ericorange441]

Great video and I'm glad woody is doing great

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks Dude!

[@HooksandHammocks]

We fished there once with Steve Douglas. Caught all our fish about 8 miles upriver from the Haunted place. By the time we got back to the sunken dam we had to load up due to weather. We need to get back down there!

[@RiverCertified]

Sounds similar to our experience. It's a cool place to fish for sure.

[@markbartolowits5354]

Great job on the Flathead

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks Mark. Happy late Halloween to you.

[@jimsmith-i3r]

Great flathead Spencer cool video

[@RiverCertified]

Thank you Jim! That fish more than made my day.

[@phillipjohnson915]

Growing up we had a big mutt dog (Ginger) and a wiener hound (Penny). They would tag team an armadillo when it beat them to its’ hole. Penny would go in the front door and Ginger would wait at the back door. The rest was history for the armadillo. Hey, I really enjoyed this video. Really nice yellowcat!

[@RiverCertified]

That would be a fun team to watch. The big dog/little dog combo is something Ella and I have talked about. I think an Irish Wolfhound would fit right in haha

[@bjcoutdoors]

Great job guys 👍 sure do hate that I miss out.

[@RiverCertified]

We will get on the water one of these days. Just let me know when you have some time and I'll hop in your boat.

[@bjcoutdoors]

@ Awesome brother sounds like a plan 👍

[@JeepDogs]

Great to hear Woody is cancer free, give him extra treats and Skip

[@RiverCertified]

I definitely will. Thank you.

[@violentdawg]

DUDE!!! So happy for Woody!!! I need to know what breed Woody and Skip are because as much as I don't want to talk about it... If something happens to our boy, my wife and I said when we are ready again it'll be a small dog (also so I can take him kayaking). None the less, Congrats to you and your family for the great news!

[@RiverCertified]

Woody is a mutt we got as a rescue when he was a puppy, probably a terrier mix of some kind. I think Skip was a breeder mistake haha. He's half yorkie, half brussells griffon, probably another half monkey. I appreciate all that man!

[@violentdawg]

@@RiverCertified Breeder mistakes seems to always be the best! I just got to make sure when we rescue the next family member I can give him a mohawk 😂

[@darrickgoodrich2169]

That view on the lake is bad ass

[@RiverCertified]

It's a beautiful place for sure

[@Outlawcatfishing1983]

Hey glad to see you fishing here in Tennessee. I was literally 15 minutes away from where you were fishing at lol. Hopefully you catch a giant near that hales bar dam.

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks man. You live in one heck of a place to be a fisherman!

[@Outlawcatfishing1983]

@RiverCertified yes sir. Hope to fish with you again on a kayak tournament. Are you making it to south Carolina?

[@MrCaissed]

Hey Spencer good to hear woody is much better! My own dog has had cancer 3 times. She just turned 6 and is completely healthy. Expensive meds and surgeries are not cheap. I had saved for several years to get a new Tacoma and my entire down payment disappeared. So I share an suv with my wife. I’m disabled so saving is extremely difficult for us. I’m not able to get a used one now. If while fishing you catch a Tacoma just hang onto it I’ll come and get it. It’s the least I can do! 😂😂😂

[@RiverCertified]

It was an easy decision for me because Woody should have several more years of quality life. Sounds like you were in a similar boat. Next time I land a Tacoma I'll be sure to put it on a stringer for ya.

[@artotfc890]

Those steaks look amazing. great video.

[@RiverCertified]

Micka brings the good stuff when we fish for sure. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@ridgerunner955]

Yea for Woody! Great news.

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks man!

Hey man thanks for oh that was a nice is Mike getting soft or something he seems awful soft anymore but thanks for showing up on my facebook. I'm glad the dogs are all right

[@faronmastin8683]

Glad Woody is doing good. But you found out what happens when you tease your fishing partner for loosing a fish. LOL He got to see his fish LOL

[@RiverCertified]

Thanks man. And you're right, Karma is real haha

[@nicknamean]

Is Micka the dude that caught that 100+ lber state record?

[@RiverCertified]

Yessir. He actually caught a couple that big.

[@OnPoints-p3m]

Glad your dog's okay buddy. I was watching burkhart's video yesterday he was slamming the catfish in shallow water. I like him he seems like a damn good man and one hell of a fisherman that's dedicated just like you Spencer thanks for the videos bud happy Halloween🇺🇸🙏

[@RiverCertified]

Thank you. Micka is definitely a great dude and one of the best, if not the best, catfisherman I've had a chance to share a boat with. Happy Halloween man!

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Good deal bud, glad to hear about Ol wood-man, glad he’s doing alright! Now, y’all get er done!! 👍👍🤙🏻🤙🏻✌🏻! You and Ms Ella pass out candy tonight? That’s what I did, it wasn’t too bad, we got about 20-25 kids that came around, even though it drizzled rain a little bit, but yeah it’s was pretty good, I’m an old man now and all my kids are grown, even the grandkids so I just stay home and pass out candy.

[@RiverCertified]

Not too many tricker treaters in our neck of the woods when I'm down south unfortunately. I definitely miss that part. I might have to stay in Iowa a little longer next year just for that.

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

@ - right on right on bud, I hear ya! Stay safe down there, 🤟🏻🤙🏻✌🏻

[@boxingstarcmbballer8797]

That big blue with huge bite mark probably makes you want to fish that place with a 3 pound live channel cat on a double hook rig and see what happens 😂

[@RiverCertified]

Can you read minds? hahaha

[@diggy-d8w]

You've got quite the setup on Rod-Holders on the boat..... got a video on how you made them? Or closeups of them? I guess I'll go look for them but I liked yours. peace

[@RiverCertified]

I appreciate that. They're MulTbar rod racks with Smackdown rod holders. They're pricey but work awesome and are transferrable if I ever get a different boat.

[@diggy-d8w]

I know they'll go with you when ya change boats, if ya change boats? I have no use for them right now but they struck me as different enough to carry the thought with me thru life..... whatever that means? Yes, they're a cut above others I see. Nice fishing video too. peace

[@kennethharlson577]

Happy to see your fur boys doing well. I do have a question not related to this video. How do you prepare the catfish that you cook on these trips? Do you skin them and then chunk them up or filet them first? Just wondering.

[@RiverCertified]

I fillet them, cut all the red meat off and then chunk 'em up. Hope that helps man. I appreciate you watching.

[@mikewest712]

What broke the windows ? Lead sinkers?

[@RiverCertified]

Probably Mother Nature would be my guess. Or ghosts.

He tries to get them to chase him back, but they never do. The frustration on his face is priceless.

@@RiverCertified that’s the way my father always ate his. I remember in that movie Cowboy Way, with Woody Harrelson. Him and Kiefer Sutherland went to this fancy place and got steak and they ask Woody how he wanted it cooked, he said, knock its horns off, wife it’s nasty old ass and throw it on a plate!
