    Proverbs 17: 9
    Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but
    dwelling on it separates close friends.
    Ephesians 4: 32
    Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted,
    forgiving one another, just as God through
    Christ has forgiven you.
    Matthew 6: 14
    If you forgive those who sin against you, your
    heavenly Father will forgive you.
    Colossians 3: 13
    Make allowance for each other 's faults, and
    forgive anyone who offends you. Remember,
    the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive
    others.
    2 Chronicles 7: 14
    Then if my people who are called by my name
    will humble themselves and pray and seek my
    face and turn from their wicked ways, I will
    hear from heaven and will forgive their sins
    and restore their land.
    GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING!

    It’s good to see someone using old equipment. I was beginning to think it was impossible to catch fish without a $100,000 boat and $5,000 in gear. Great video!

      I still have my Penn’s and my ABUs.

      My Penn’s were made in the United States.
      My Abu’s were made in Sweden.
      I do have a bunch of Shimano reels.

      Didn't you hear? Fish can't be caught unless you see fish, lure, strike, 100' out in front of you, live, on screen, in real time, for $20,000. Didn't you know? Rich people don't have time to be "fishin'"

    Richard, thank you for taking us to catch some sauger. I always have to tell people what a sauger is because most I meet never seem to have heard of it. Sauger was mom's favorite but she liked crappie, too.

      When you target, let's say crappie, that's when you'll catch a sauger. 😂. I've targeted catfish, and I end up catching smallies. I've caught so many smallies intentional and unintentional. Watch I'll target bass, that's when I'll catch a catfish. Maybe that's what I'll do. I'll use a football head jig trying to get a bass, and I'll bag catfish that's happened to me a bunch of times, lol. 😂

    Wow! I just searched Google Maps & had a look at where your fishing!
    I can't believe how nice & LONG of a concrete walkway you have there! That's awesome,,,, an OLD Ohio's fisherman's dream.
    Up North, the DNR doesn't know nut'n about giving handicapped fishermen access! We BEG all the time, for more fishing access, especially along the Ohio River, & below it's dams. We are forced to slide down 40' -50', 1 to1 hills, just to get to the water. Then we gotta walk on & over huge rip-rap boulders to find a flat enough, safe enough place to fish. It's a sad sorry *** shame.
    THANKS,,, for showing us what could be!!

    @joegrande4848 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I know this is off-topic because this is about catching sauger. I've seen and learned a rig or lure you use for 1 type of fish. You can catch other fish. For example, I've caught catfish and nice ones on black and blue football head jig with black and blue creyfish. I've done this early spring when it's chilly still catfish, hugging muddy bottom of water in a hole to keep warm. Bass, do this, too. Also, when its hot. If waters calm enough and you can see a dark shaded area on the water surface, it's either a hole in the lake, a river, or a pond bed. Or, it's heavy grass or brush patch.
