It amazes me a nice gill in Iowa is 8 inches. The smallest I would want to clean is 9”. I don’t understand I grew up on ponds an lakes that regularly produced 9 inch gills but here it seems everyone thinks that’s unheard of

Go home then

Think positive my Friend.

Lighter jig hesd

I usually don’t fish deeper than 20’ out there. But when I do I set the hook hard enough to keep them on then reel up slow. Haven’t had a fish blow up in the last few years doing that.

To many Carp

Need a cover for that auger man that thing will bite you some day

U need heavy line for that kind of fishing tie a rag on your line for snags and it go all the way down your line then pull 80 percent come out trust me I have been fishing bridges for 50 plus. Years and sill do I catch 40 to 50 lbs strippers off bridges. !!!!!!!!!!!!?

catch and release bro cmon

Caught a 32.8lbs flathead here today subbed to the channel. Used Google maps satellite to find this location 😂 first time there caught my PB

Is that over by copart?

What’s that set up you got if you don’t mind me askin?

What size line,rod?

People that comment negatively on this don’t realize that they are of the Elect ! If you have faith it is because you are elect!!! Not because you chose. But by God’s Grace your heart was regenerated to respond to God’s calling you. It just goes back to who you are crediting your faith to. Your ability to have faith? Or God who caused your Faith. “For by grace you have been saved through faith. “even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved-” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭5‬ ‭ESV‬‬ ( He made us alive) And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭ESV‬‬ (Not a result of anything we can do)

What's the size limit on those eyes? Down here it's 18". I catch a ton of 15"-17" fish. Might get a keeper 1 out of 10. Thanks.

Is this in iowa.i see a blue heron lake in one video.just figured out I live practically 2 blocks from racoon river park.is this near

This is awesome!

Those days don't come around very often glad you got to enjoy it. Happy fishing

Have you tried the fake worms at Wally Worlds where the hooks are? Always wondered if the wallies would slam those they have the treble hooks on it.

Good ole crawdad crank bait lol

Nice when you can find a consistent walleye bite plus a few other bonus species. Good vid!

River will probably be trash after that 400,000 gallons of poop hits us.

Awesome video! Nice catches.

That’s a damn nice fish to be pulling out of there, buddy

Ran the lower section down by vandillia and it's pretty low, we're you experiencing any up above the dams?

Hammering those fish. 👊🏻

Was a great stretch of river years ago but thanks to river phest it's moronic founders and thousands of kayakers every season it's ruined ! Started my raccoon river adventures in 1972 and now you couldn't pay me to suffer through all the city people and their bs , another rural treasure ruined by city folk !

Blue Heron?

Long time no see!! Glad to see content!

You love to see a healthy stream like that. For me I'd rather spend an afternoon catching a variety of smaller fish than spend hours for one big one. Thanks for the film

This year has been crazy at work, I haven't been fishing in so long ,

fun to watch keep the videos coming! very relatable to how i fish lol

Need to make some flathead videos again

New subscriber here. Thanks for the video. By the way, 1 or 10 they're still called Bass. Not basses. 😂

Glad to have you back making some content. I’m not scared of a little channel kitty.

Thats a good job tillering ❤

Pflueger presidents are such great reels.

I know you haven’t posted for 2 years or a couple months I’m not 100% accurate. But, I’m not new to fishing and I am new to chasing flathead, been trying all summer, live baits and such and log jams and holes, however I’m from by Ames and there is jack ceap for flatheads around here. Thinking of going down to the middle river and raccoon, is it loaded with flatties like I’ve heard? I don’t care if it’s a 3 lb flathead or a 53 lb flathead I just want to catch one. Any tips for those two rivers or secret holes you could help me out? I’m only 16 trying to get one, thanks ! Edit: looks like a damn good time on the old sandbar

there are ways to unsnag your bait without breaking the line

for me, walleye, i just use a micro perch crank on my ultralight with 10 pound, or jig with a worm!

It’s illegal to fish that area now, even though people do it anyways.

I see you've been following our Fire Hardened White Wood Bow video that we released a few years ago. I think you could have cooked the belly a little more to give it a more toasted brown color, but that's o.k. Looks like a good shooting bow, and I'm sure you noticed an improvement in performance even with a light cooking. You can always cook it again later on if you want.

hey thats my bobber !!!! nice fish man i know im late to the party

Good to know I actually live right by there!

Didn't know you can bring beer there. Or i would have ! lol

Considering it’s 100° outside right now and you’re in a coat and hat. I’d say this video has been sitting for a bit. 😂 I’ve seen that Beaty out and about.

found a fellow Iowan! Nice Video with some good catches! Got me excited to hit the river up this year!!!

You should invest in some quality rain gear. I bought the cabela’s guide wear years ago and it will keep you bone dry even in a down pour. I’ve had some of my best fishing days ever in heavy rain!

When I go looking for bass and settle for crappie, I usually turn them into dinner.

I'd prefer to catch crappie anyday over bass.. I'd clean and cook the crappies even save the cheek meat.. ahh bass, would never eat a bass...
