- Koaw damages his spine while surveying creeks and rivers with nets and fishing rigs. Many cool Michigan fishes including Iowa darter with black spot disease, western blacknose dace, brook stickleback, and maybe even a northern sunfish.

Surgery went well last week! Should be up-and-moving in a few weeks. Thanks for the support and good luck out there!
Its been forever since I've caught a Northern sunfish, its been so long in fact that I thought they were Pumpkinseeds haha. Learn something new every day.
Yeah, those northern's can look so similar to pumpkinseeds that the IDs are tricky.
Sorry about your injury. Get better soon.
Thanks much! Back is doing better these days.
Excellent video. Really enjoyed the closeups of the fish and the ID markers.
Appreciate that! I've subbed to your channel so I'll be readily able to get some Florida fishing tips when I get down there...eventually.
love the content, and beautiful fish
I just came across your channel. I love how you describe the details of each species. It's very informative and enjoyable to watch. Nice job! Hope you get well soon.
Glad you enjoy the details on the species. It's something I always try to add in. I appreciate your nice words!
I still like the look of the Pumpkinseeds, but that hybrid Bluegill was interesting. Thanks for bringing us along on this trip, and wishing you an exceptional recovery that eliminates the recurring pain!
Thank you very much! Glad you took the time to watch this one. And yeah, pumpkinseeds are definitely pretty.
The dedication is amazing
Thanks much, Andreas!
Thanks for the videos 🙏
Thanks again, Jerry!
Great video man.👍love the descriptions of all the fish. Love the music in between too. How do you get those clear pictures on the fish and get them to sit still? Thanks😎
Ah thanks much! For the clear pictures I use my mini-glass tanks and try to get most shots with my DSLR. Glass just offers such clear photos. I made a video on how to make these tanks th-cam.com/video/zJT9SD8tk_0/w-d-xo.html . As for getting 'em to sit still: If the tank is small enough they won't move around too much. Otherwise, it's about snapping a whole bunch of photos and just nabbing a good one out of the lot.
@@KNFishingSmarts I will definitely check out your video. I currently use a plastic photo tank and take pictures with my iPhone. Thanks!
Wetlands are my favourite ecosystems too.
Ah, hey man! Yeah--definitely fun habitat types.
Very cool! Love the ID graphics. Thanks for all the good work. Sorry to hear about the surgery. Good luck with it.
I appreciate that. And I just checked out a video on your channel. Great stuff. Love the science-backed presentation. I'll be watching more for sure.
Man sorry to hear about the injury. I was starting to wonder why I hadn't seen any videos lately. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Appreciate that David. Hope to be back out getting good footage for the Spring and Summer.
Hope you heal well…I like your detailed fish descriptions, well done.
Thanks Peter. I'm actually a few months post-op and doing great. Appreciate your kind words.
Dude awesome videos.
Thanks much, Trevor! Glad you enjoy the KNFS content.
Very good to see your videos. I hope your back gets fixed up right.
Thanks James! Appreciate that much.
Thanks for another great video and hope recovery is going well
Very much appreciate that ratfish! Should go well.
Extremely interesting content! Thanks for sharing and I hope your back gets better soon 👍
Thanks! Glad you enjoy the content too.
I recently bought some bantam sunfish for my biotope native aquarium. I noticed 1 has a few black specks on his body, wasn't sure what exactly it was or if it was harmful. Once I saw the Iowa darter at 4:23 I knew that's exactly what is on my fish! Thanks koaw! 👍🏻 now I know what to treat for 🙂
Ah, glad to help. Hope that was the case and you were able to treat for it!
Ouch!! I've slipped my lower disc quite a few times already and yeah i sucks! BUt it didn't stop me from fishing either! :)
Ha, indeed it does! But yeah, fishing still remains a priority!
Howdy!! I watched your Green Sunfish video!!! Great stuff!!!! If you ever come to southeast IOWA we can catch those guys in the double digits in about 10 min!!!! Ive got a couple of Sweet Spots Id love to share with ya
Appreciate the invite Deion. I'll keep it in mind if I get to Iowa. Cheers!
Do you have a link to the lead-free split shot you use? I looked on your gear page and I couldn’t find it. Thanks!
If you just Google "Loon Outdoors Camo Drops" that'll bring up that lead-free ones I love using these days. They're a bit pricey, but worth it.
The very first big mouth bass you caught was so tiny! Do they spawn upstream and then move out into lakes when they’re big enough to hold their own?
Hey Sarah! Usually the bass don't spawn in the small creeks/streams. Typically the adult bass spawn in a bigger water source (lake, pond, river). That little bass probably just came upstream from the nearby lake.
@@KNFishingSmarts Thanks! Amazing to think that such tiny beings would be such wanderers.
Weirdo went camping near Holland ,don't live there anymore thank god people were horrendous
