Shallow Water CATCH AND COOK!! (Spring Fishing)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.พ. 2025
- In early spring, the water is cold. Cold water can make it tough to catch bait and catch the fish you're after. On the upside, when you do catch a few, they're some of the best-tasting fish you'll ever have!

For real that's probably one of the best catcher Cooks he cooked that catfish like he had some experience😊
CATCH AND COOK in the title always gets my thumbs up even before watching the vid. Thanks!
Awesome man. I got a few more lined up too. Glad ya enjoyed it!
Mans got me drooling over here. God I miss the country fishing life. But I joined the military so here I am
I honestly am immensely thankful for you making that sacrifice. If you ever want to book a trip I'd gladly discount ya.
The will force is strong with this one. I could never wait until all the fish was done before eating a nugget or fillet. You have my respect. :)~
I've been practicing that lately. I've even cut back on beer. Mostly haha
The fact that you respond to soo many comments shows us how much it means.
It definitely does man. It also helps I enjoy talking about fishing stuff. Wish I had more hours in the day for that.
Best line... when I'm hungry, I'm hungry now 😂😂😂😂😂
Glad to see you on the bank catching, and cooking catfish. Allot of us catfish from the bank so we are there with you, and learn allot from your vids. Showing us how you catch your bait is great. Nice job Spencer!!!
I'm glad ya enjoyed it. I'm really excited for the creeks to come alive and do some bank walking there. I absolutely love it!
@@RiverCertified Cool man!! I fished out of boat for 30 years. Getting older now I am a bank fisherman now, and love it. I have learned a few things about bank fishing flathead off the bank that you have taught me and I am grateful of you.
There's nothing better than camping fishing catch and cook, just enjoying yourself are with your wife and family ,thanks Spencer you just talked me into buying another boat😊
I watched you cooked them fish with Frank's red hot iv used it ever since. I love your catch and cook I wish I could go fishing with you I 62 years old . Even if I don't get to I'll keep watching you thanks
I don’t ever get tired of watching you catch cats!
Hell yeah man. I appreciate it!
Watching this at 4:30 pm and it's making me so hungry. That fried fish looks so delicious. I'm going to catch some cats this weekend and do exactly that.
I truly believe that your name and catch and cook will be synonymous in the history books of catfishing 🤣
That would be one proud accomplishment on my end haha
@@RiverCertified you have definitely earned it
It's been so long I forgot what a sneeb was. Good to see the small water baitfishing is back!
It never left, you left
That there is Spencer at nearly well may kind of could be in one of his happy places catching bait! Catching ice cold channel long whiskered dong turd slurpers then some Frank's some whisker seaker crumb a gas burner and a smile like a Cheshire Cat with a belly full of dinner.
Thanks for the adventure Spen I just love these type of videos.
Keep up the hard work even if you make it look easy. Thanks for taking us along
You summed it up nicely man. I'll hopefully be catching them on bobbers soon as well. Can't wait until I get to do a little creek walking. Thanks for always watching!
@@RiverCertified you are welcome my friend very welcome. I wish we could get the bigger bottles of Frank's over here ! You have converted me I have it on alsorts now!
Watching your videos get me excited here in St Louis waiting on the water to warm up so I can start catching catfish another nice video brother
They're biting now, I promise ya that. Good luck man!
Bravo! The hangry moments are cracking me up! Relatable, hilarious.
Haha I'm glad you appreciate that Trish!
I wish TH-cam didn't make it so hard to find channels like this. I really enjoy the content is video and a get a god laugh out of your commentary.
And I'm glad ya found the video man, and even more happy you enjoyed it!
Love it when you have to lay a fish on the bank to reel in another!. Good day on the river.
I concur. Glad you enjoyed it man!
Spencer you just keep catching catfish after catfish not only in this video but all your videos. Dude teach me!!!!!!!!!
I've been thinking about doing a $5 subscription based live video and talk about what I do to find catfish. There's been a handful of people who thought it was a cool idea.
The leak technique always works for me !!!
I'll definitely keep trying it haha
That was pretty cool, nothing like relaxing on the bank catching fish then cooking them up. Great show man, keep them coming!✌
Glad you enjoyed it man. I will do my best! Hopefully the weather starts to cooperate again!
What can of fish is that
The fish every morning “ dam man that hungry ass guy is out here again spread the word to the others”🤣
"My jig is too big for my bobber..." 🤣🤣👍New fan good job bud!
Glad ya get a kick outta it dude!
Chanel cat videos never get old. they're just so relatable and on cold windy days when I can't try to catch em myself, watching someone else do it is the next best thing
bait fishing also never gets old. always relatable
Good deal man, especially because I have a lot of fun with them. Glad you enjoy it all!
oh wow all nice size catfish, living the dream catch and cook..
Thanks a bunch man. I try my best!
I think the meal between lunch and supper has always been Lupper for me. I like to eat brunch and lupper when we are on vacation and just grab a quick breakfast and snack around those two bigger meals.
I found myself doing something similar when I'm on trips. Well, I guess I just eat whenever I find time haha
Grate video I enjoyed the fact that you caught the bait with a rod, and the end product looks so good , golden and crispy 😋👍👍
Thanks man. I'm glad ya liked it all. I appreciate ya watching all the videos!
Finally found a underrated fishing video, my fav so far.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
The Monkey and Puppy police were here asking about you. I told them NOTHING! Great video - thanks for taking us along.
And thats whats I appreciates about yas haha. Glad you enjoyed it Tom!
That lil disclaimer about 17 mins lmao that's why I keep watching. And listen to the podcast.
Glad ya got a kick outta it man. Leaving now to go record another podcast!
The enthusiasm is contagious! 😂👍
Glad ya enjoyed it!
I'm so glad that they were talking about your channel last Saturday on the Debo's Fishing livestream! I've been consuming your content en masse for several days straight. Love your vids!
That's awesome man, I had no idea. I appreciate you letting me know and I'm glad you enjoy the videos!
I live for cringie awkward moments like Chunky monkey and this is not actually a puppy. 🤣 When I say things like that my daughters roll their eyes and laugh. They "low key" think I'm funny. Keep the videos coming, Spencer. Thanks brother! 👊
That story reminds me of the response I got from most of the JH kids I had when I was teaching. I hope you continue to stay Dad Joke strong haha
THAT Plate is fit for a King sir. Great Day!!!! Awesome vids sir!
I felt very spoiled afterwards. I also felt pretty fat haha
Love your pass the time away commentary.... disclaimer "not really a puppy was funny". I liked..and I subscribed.

Nothing better than fresh fish fry cold water catfish is the best good job

U sure know how to make a person’s lips flop clean up over their noses 👃, ain’t nothing better than catching an cooking fresh caught fish. I’m proud I was taught this way of living when I was growing up. There needs to be a lot more young people like u Man. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
You're too kind man. I do my best to enjoy my time out there, and cooking what I catch is the cherry on top. Thank you sir!
I’m glad you take the time to respond Man. Thanks for the videos, they are awesome.
I am a proud river rat, I've watched every video! I'd really love to go on a hunt for flattys with you sometime if you ever come towards Illinois! Keep up the amazing content my dude!
I really appreciate that man! Glad you enjoy the videos. That's badass you've seen em all!
Good video. Back to the best part of it warming up. Bank fishing!
Thanks Cody! I'm definitely a fan myself!
Love these videos, start with worms in small water, go up the chain, and end up with fried channels, good stuff Spenc! 👍🏻
Hell yeah man. Hoping include more bait catching in future videos. Glad ya enjoyed it!
Looks like so much fun eating fresh fish on the boat and on land god bless the life we live
I promise it is. Hope you get the chance to enjoy it yourself!
Sweeeeet, Catfish cuisine, smells so good, btw I carry the Murphy’s law handbook in my fishing shirt pocket….😜
Haha that makes me feel better that I'm not the only one. Glad you enjoyed the video!
simple and to the point. catch em. clean em. enjoy them. doing a crappie one tomorrow with any luck.
Hope you find the crappies. I'm gonna have to make a day or two just for that myself.
Always great content Spence. 😁
I had to laugh when YOU got a call, I thought it was MY phone, and I found myself checking to see who was calling me. 😆
Haha that's funny. Glad ya enjoyed the video!
The days of sitting on the bank with poles out and clickers screaming are right around the corner for me in ohio. Thanks for sharing spencer, this gets me pumped up
Dude I can't wait either. Hope you have a great season!
@@RiverCertified thanks alot brother. You as well
This guy single handedly could eat the whole population of cats in the world in his life time. Lmao
I call them life goals hahahaha
@@RiverCertified lmao
Every video he is always eating something breakfast, snack,lunch, snack snack oh yeah dinner and then night time snack
“out in the doors”
Great video bud, back to the basics! The scenery is beautiful as well!
Thanks man! Spring time is my favorite time to fish for channels, especially after a winter of doing all the other stuff.
Love the catch and cook. My freaking mouth was watering. I like Texas Pete hot sauce, Frank’s red hot is great to but on the vinegar side
I value ur ability to enjoy nature...so few of us get time with work etc...loved the content
I do my best not to take it for granted. Glad you enjoy the videos!
Spencer, would you ever consider heading to the Erbo River in Spain to catch the giant wels catfish that live there? Love the content!
Giant carp there too
There might be something in the works. sssshhhhhhhhhh.
I lost my sis not to long ago due to cancer your videos bring me joy thank you ✌️
Man I couldn't imagine. I hope you continue to feel better and I'm glad the videos help!
Thank you . tight lines
5:21 sounds like hank hill fell over lol love the videos
Hahaha I could see that
p.s. haven't had fresh fried catfish in decades but you inspired me to cook up some supermarket fish recently using your cooking methods more or less. When it gets a little warmer here in Mass, I'll be out there catching and cooking, hopefully!? Thanks Spencer.
I hope ya do man. Good luck!
That was an absolute huge pile of fried fish.
Reminds me of how I eat, start off small them im like hmm, add this and this and this then before I know it I have 2 Meats and 3 sides and im like what happened lol.
Hope you enjoyed and had a blast!
I just ate the last of it yesterday with some fried eggs. I figure if I make too much, I can always eat it later. Thanks for always watching dude!
Between lunch and dinner is linner keep up the videos man
Good to know. Glad you enjoy them!
Seems like every time I watch your catch and cooks I'm starving so of course it always looks delicious. Always love watching your videos.
I understand. I end up getting hungry again when I edit them haha
@@RiverCertified lol
Looks so relaxing and the fried fish looked good too. LOL
Absolutely was, at least I thought so too. Thanks for watching!
That time of year. Those reels look good for channels . Looks like the perfect set ups. Awesome video like always
I'm really digging them Scott. Thanks for always watching!
That whisker seeker fish fry is the 💣
Dude I felt like a king eating all that on the bank haha
Love your vids like this. Can't wait to hit my local river banks soon. Oh' yeah... Go Braves!
Hope you beat em up! Go Cubbies!
Takin' a leak is usually a sure-fire way to get 'em to bite! You just had the exception that proves the rule, that's all!
Awesome video, the way you fry catfish looks delicious I'm gonna have to try it man. Thanks for the videos.
I hope you enjoy it! Glad you like the videos too!
Love the Catch and cooks bro
Glad you like them, especially because I like eating haha!
I love these videos my new favorite side of TH-cam
Hell yeah. Glad ya enjoy em!
You can never eat enough fresh protein. Franks or Chalula (prefered ) it is soul satisfying. Keep em coming Spencer.
Gotta agree and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
It's not actually a puppy 😆. You have a damn good fishing spot, I'm jealous. Down here in Texas there's not many water bodies to fish out of. And I love me some fishing! Fish on 🤙🏼🎣!
Thats a nice kastking reel you got there. They can haul in monster fish no problem
Very down to earth... great video
I absolutely love your videos brother! From Arizona
Nice not having to turn the fish with something other than a plastic fork.... No burning fingers. Great Video.
Haha very true. Glad you enjoyed it!
Pro tip, always have a rod set aside so you can pretend to be leaving. That’s when they all come running…well swimming 😂
That's super pro tip haha
Thanks to you Spencer, I've developed a Frank's Red Hot addiction. Never saw it here in Australia but maybe just didn't notice. Anyway, now it's on the table next to the Tabasco and Sriracha and Sambal Oelek.
Now that is awesome haha. It goes really well on chicken wings too!
Now I'm hungry again thank you.. Driving to work it'll work at 4:30 in the morning and morning fried catfish. Great work as always 🤝🏼
I got hungry while I was editing this one haha. Thanks man!
You got it!every time I see your video I have to go fishing
Hell yeah man. Hope you've been beating them up!
great video,nice catch and cook, between lunch and dinner is lunner lol. stay safe.
Got excited when I saw Walleye.. then cats happened.
Need some 'eye jiggin' soon!
I have several of them lined up. I'm just waiting on a few things because the first one has a big announcement in it. Sorry to keep ya waiting dude!
It's so freaking cold today... no good weekends yet to go sit by the water
I snuck out and froze. Caught a walleye, so that warmed me up a bit haha
@@RiverCertified try and catch a catfish on ultra light setup for a video. It's fun as hell
🔥
That fish looked good... thanks for the video!
Glad ya enjoyed it man!
I see you making them gains! Looking good bro! Awesome video again. Love the catch and cooks! Keep the videos coming!
Wish I had smellavision !!! That's the best lunch ever !! Tight lines Spencer !!
You might have regretted that when I was baiting the hooks though haha
Good video! Catch and cook are fine, can't go wrong with channels either.
Glad ya enjoyed it! Cold water channels are my favorite channels
Spencer on the roll with the uploads. Never disappointed buddy #1
I try my best. Every Monday/Thursday 4 pm Central Time!
That made me hungry, great stuff mate 👍
I try my best haha. Glad you enjoyed it!
I don't know how some people don't like the taste of fried catfish. I feel like fried anything is amazing! Lol
Agreed. Frying fish of any kind is at the very least going to be edible haha
Gonna have to try your method of frying catfish, thanks bro for all the videos, 🤘🏼
It's not the only way, but it's my favorite way. Glad you enjoy the videos!
Lupper lupper is between lunch and supper 🤙
I like that one too
Great video Dude! Gotta wonder about the intelligence of a creek chub tho. Chub 1- "Hey, Frank just ate one of those and disappeared. Do you think you should eat that?" Chub 2- "Yeah, I'm sure nothing bad will happen to me...."
Sounds like a lot of conversations I heard when I was in Junior High haha
@@RiverCertified Ditto....
great video man! trying to catch my first walleye this year and my first flathead! your vids are giving me clues to catch my first of both. going walleye fishing soon, a spot where i know they are. keep it up!! 🎣
Good luck man. Cast straight out into the current, let your bait sink to the bottom, and reel only fast enough to keep the bait off the bottom and your line tight. Let the current swing the bait. At least when the water is under 50. Hope that helps!
@@RiverCertified perfect cold water lure fishing technique.
My kinda day great video and you better let that marinate for a minute
That's a Texas sized 10 4 there bud
Great video
Just fried some up this evening with whisker seeker fry dredge. Very tasty
Oh man, I was in my own little slice of heaven. Glad ya enjoyed it!
Appreciate you brother! I finally got on some Spring Channey's the other day, same eater size as you got, but fun in the kayak none the less... can't wait for some summer Flattys!
They make a great appetizer before the flatheads man. Hope the fish keep biting for ya!
Thanks for another great video Spencer! You keep making these amazing videos and I'll keep watching them!
Hell yeah man. Glad you keep enjoying them!
I bet Al Linder would use a St Croix rod to catch Creek Chubs if he lived in Iowa😂. Loved the back home video. Definitely relatable however; the videos you put out this winter makes me want to take a trip down south!
I bet you're right haha. I'm editing up a few blue cat videos still. Those blues are a blast!
That looks great!!!
I promise it was. Thanks for watching!
