That’s one beautiful fishing spot! When I was in my 20s I fished 3 to 4 days a week. Caught a lot of monster catfish in the Mississippi and Missouri river. Nice video David! Makes me want to go fishing🤣👍🏻👍🏻

[@mountainlifewithdavidkelsie]

Better get outside! I would love to catch some monster cats

[@toddsoutsideagain]

Also thanks for the shoutout you didn’t have to do that👍🏻

[@billedgecombe9040]

respect for nature is a great thing

[@loganfishbeard]

The boys down river really made sure to sort out the big ones for you. All those fish seem to be just smaller than a 9" mesh😕. Maybe one day we'll get a ladder on that dam. I ready a study a year or two ago that concluded salmon populations in lake Roosevelt tributaries would be "highly viable", just have to convince to public to give the fish a path to get there.

I'll have to bring you along to Alaska one of these days, they come in so thick you can near cross the rivers on their backs, a guy gets sick of filleting them after a while lol

[@gregkahler]

These fish have the best genes to make it all the way back from the ocean. Let em spawn.

[@mountainlifewithdavidkelsie]

They are a part of our life and our food

[@richardmcgowan716]
