@@BackroadsAngling you need to try hooking up with Spencer and collaborate with him he loves a good Wiper bite with the shot at a bonus Walleye or Flattie or even Josh with Pig Patrol would love sling that baby whale there. Fishing with either one of them would greatly increase your subs I would bet. Great vid.
Hey Steve, it was great to meet you out there! I bet we'll run into each other again soon. I hope you and your son stick some big ones this fall! Thanks for watching!
Nice fishing! I was out there sunday and only caught a couple. I think they prefer plastics out there. I was using lures. That color green looks good there. I am fishing lake red rock dam tomorrow though. Wish me luck!
This was a few weeks ago. I've noticed it slowing down since the water went really low. The cool weather might make them turn on again at some point. White and chartreuse are my go to colors for wipers. Good luck!
How could you not expect fish to bite at that spillway? That place is practically holy land. Those drum are kinda ugly, but they still look like fun. I would love to catch one, or a wiper, one day.
There are plenty of slower days at this spot. I just show the best ones. But you are correct it is a pretty amazing fishery. Drum are underrated I think because they are so plentiful but honestly they are just as much fun to catch as most of these other species. Thanks for watching!
Once a plastic is tore up is there a way to repair it ? Lol i see you started pouring your own so figured id ask. Maybe melt it back down or apply heat to broken sections?
@@DreadyEDDY710 yes i melt the plastic back down and re-pore. Most of these I’m using have likely been recycled many times. I separate the white from the chartreuse with scissors before melting.
You don't need a permit before 7:30am if I remember correctly. I can't remember if you need one on weekends - I don't think so but check the sign. Otherwise you have to make a bit of a walk from further down the street.
@@shaartvader4830 it’s been a few weeks. I don’t think it was prefrontal. Just one of those hot humid stretches we had. That’s why I was surprised they were biting.
@@coreygraham796 Ya they have some meat to them. And the plastic I'm using is pretty dense/hard. They work pretty well in fast current because they hit the water and punch quickly below the white wash. The fish at this spot seem to like them anyway.
You're killing those fish by dragging them across the rocks and gravel, knocks off the protective slime cover.👎 A good rubber net can be had for cheap. Get one and use it please.
There is a nice shallow water landing area where I can usually keep them in shallow water while I'm landing them. All these fish were released happy and healthy.
Man, that was some incredible multi species action! That walleye was a tank! Great stuff
Thank you! One of those days when I was 50/50 on getting out of bed. I'm glad I did!
Iowas most famous fishing TH-camr at his best!
Thanks! River Certified and Marling Baits might have something to say about that.

It would be awesome to fish with any of those guys!
@@BackroadsAngling I should've said most Underrated..Naw most famous fits better
Classic spillway action for you. Impressive as usual. Keep it coming!
My favorite spot! Thanks for watching!
Killer spillway bite! You knocked off all the high tier species in this one
The big 3 of the spillway were all chomping! Thank you!
That’s awesome man! I get so hyped every time I see a new video of yours in my feed.
Thanks, that makes me feel like all the editing is worth it!
amazing fishing. gotta love it when theyre biting!
Thanks, it's a good feeling when you discover the bite is on!
Great stuff! Good to meet you this morning. Perhaps again sometime. Until I'll be watching your great videos!

Very nice walleye.
Thanks!
Great video! Was there last week and couldn’t keep the drum off my line, but no wipers or eyes.
Thanks, the water level is dropping fast and it seems to have slowed things down over there. Maybe cooler weather will help.
Awesome catches! Make me wanna come back again! Ive been skunked twice now at this place….
Thank you!
That tug is the best drug!
You know it!

@BackroadsAngling thanks man, good luck to you. Yeah the fishing has been a little slow lately. Good year overall though
Nice fish
Thanks!

Great fishing!! Is this dam in Wisconsin?
5 to 15 lb flathead are the best eating fish you caught, especially in hot weather.
I've heard they are good. I've never tried eating a flathead before - might have to sometime.
Good bro
@@TULUSRECORD thanks!

I need to figure out how to get to the other side. Can you park in the spots that say you need a permit?

I see someone made a little makeshift dam to hold their fish
Ya, there were several live wells there.
Where is this?
What day was that, Thurs, Fri? Pre-front bite perhaps?
@@shaartvader4830 it’s been a few weeks. I don’t think it was prefrontal. Just one of those hot humid stretches we had. That’s why I was surprised they were biting.
What plastics you throwing?
White/chartreuse flukes. I made a homemade mold and pour them myself. You can get similar ones from Zoom plastics.
@@BackroadsAngling they look super thick though compared to flukes I’ve fished

Im surprised no one walked within 2 foot of you and started fishing.
It definitely happens sometimes!
Don't you bring any fish home to eat? They look tasty.
I like to put most of them back but sometimes I'll keep a few.
