Never underestimate a body of water . The two fish are e perfect examples of this . I believe that was the cleanest catfish that I have seen . Nice going .

[@notmyworld44]

In the 1960s (Yes, I'm old) I worked at the Deepwater HL&P Power Plant near Pasadena TX. If I was on "yard watch", once per shift my job was to clean the screens on the condensing water intakes coming out of the ship channel. Back then the water in that channel was very nasty, and we got all sorts of slimy disgusting creatures come up on those screens. Conversely, the Bacliff power station near Texas City provided employees hundreds of pounds of fresh live shrimp right out of Galveston bay when they washed their intake screens. I wonder if they are still doing that.

Not that surprising. Fisherman in Ukraine used to fish the cooling ponds at Chernobyl (before the meltdown) where the cooling water dumped because the fish were plentiful and active. The spot was stupid popular among people in Pripyat and was often praised for being excellent fishing

When throwing from heights and you are pulling up the cast net,try pulling from like a 45 degree angle,when you pull straight up,the lead line leaves the ground before it closes allowing the fish to escape,not sure if I explained it properly

[@DocNo27]

@@millerthehunter3999 Nah - more likely than not just cooling water if it is a power plant. Warmer water = more life = more bait food = more and bigger fish. Nothing special about seeing big fish or schools of fish in situations like these.

The warm water runoff at Gandy power plant (Tampa Bay) was notorious for Reds and Snook! Access was by boat, but of course a fisherman must seek further pursuit of happiness, you just had to time the security guards rounds to venture into the labyrinths for that ultimate strike!

[@jacobmccandles1767]

"Spewing this blackish-green ooze..." In Florida they call that "water".

Used to catch tons of white bass in the outflow from the Huntley Power Plant on the Niagara River in Buffalo. There was a large 4-5 acre cooling pond before it discharged into the river, the pond was off limits but the outflow was near the small boat launch. Wiggle a little light colored lure in that outflow water 'rapids' and get one every time. The power plant is closed now.

[@mr.edwards6971]

Good show

[@peterderidder9922]

annother nice adventure !

[@jerseyveg1]

Years ago I used to belong to fishing club that had 3 different lakes right off of a big river. The club sold off a lot of the land to waste management and they developed there trade mark mountains of trash all around the lakes. Eventually after a few years we started noticing that some of the fish we were pulling out had tons of leaches on them and in them and some even had deformities!! Point is that when fishing around facilities such as these beware of things both seen and unseen because you never know what is affecting and infecting the marine life!!

[@stephbhoy1]

I was thinking the same thing, he’s telling us it’s pumping out green sludge then touching the fish and net with no gloves on. 🤢🤮

NICE! Yeah, they go where they find food and stay warm, do not know that they can reproduce, though. I have caught (or hooked) all of those up in the Hillsborough River (Downtown Tampa and estuary area) and other species including juvenile Goliath Grouper, mullet, sand perch, whiting... Depends on the tide as far as how fresh or brackish the salinity is.

[@northcountyhomestead59]

Awesome video

[@squirrelgunsmith1131]

I have fished al three of the plant discharge canals in the Tampa, Hillsborough and McCay Bay areas...in the winter you will catch everything but most pelagic and billfish there. They are all strictly salt water intake and discharge. Can't fish the intakes but restricted access to discharge unless you are in a boat.

There is good fishing just down river of the Monticello nuclear power plant on the Mississippi river. My friend hooked a big cat fish we guessed at about 45 pounds about 20 kilos. Plus some 13 inch crappies.

[@ryanhighberg6931]

You sure as hell can't get this close to that plant. I used to hike up the river to get to the power lines. Great walleye fishing. Now it's all posted no trespassing. Pre 9/11 you could check in at the gate and fish right by the plant. Those days are long gone. Of course, it is a nuclear plant so it's as tight as security gets

Dude, I live in the greater Houston area. I'm in Singapore right now, but when I get back, I would love to get together and do some fishing. I really want to know where you were fishing that you caught such a nice Redfish in what is basically a drainage ditch. Was the water at least brackish? We used to own a vacation rental in Sargent, so I'm no stranger to fishing for Drum. Super-fun fish to catch, and once you show them who's boss, they tend to acquiesce. My biggest catch was a 36-inch, 43-pound Black Drum which I caught in my back yard in Sargent. Had to let it go, of course, because it was outside the slot. I caught another one of similar size, but never weighed or measured it. Threw it back right away in order to avoid stressing it.
