- The nostalgia trip! I fished the river a lot when I was young, and I busted out my old baitcaster combo for this adventure. Worked my way down the Three Rivers Heritage Trail and caught some bass and a drum. I need some better fish identification skills! The lure of the day was the Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap in silver and blue. Also had a giant break me off on my very first cast. Such an awesome day. I hope you enjoy.

Great video! Definitely a musky in the beginning, I’d LOVE to catch one of those in downtown. What an awesome video that would make…
Hey Matt ... I myself have caught many large fish in the rivers in downtown Pittsburgh including large walleye pike! Great video!!!
Dang man I hope your channel keeps growing and growing. I clicked your video since I’m like 25 mins from the Allegheny river, but I watched the whole video and truly enjoyed all of it. Good edits. Good content. Makes me think I should start bringing my go pro when I go fishing!
Great video! Keep em’ coming!
Great Video! I use to fish the Allegheny up near Springdale when I lived in Pittsburgh. Subbed... Can't wait to see more stuff.
@@MASMOfishing thanks, I try to fish in just about anything… doesn’t always work out. I’ll let you know when I come in to da burg if you wanna meet up and fish. It’s funny I went to Duquesne and never once thought to bring my stuff to school with me…what was I thinking?
Great video, those drum hit like a tank! City fishing is the best you always get fans stopping to cheer you on lol.
Great day of fishing downtown Pittsburgh. Pretty sure that was a big ole musky that took your bait there at the beginning, and that was definitely a drum you caught there at the end. Awesome video!
I enjoyed this video. Fishing downtown looked really fun. Never tried that either. Fish on!
Go further up Mon next trip near Sandcastle Water Park. Homestead Grey's Bridge. And the Dam behind Kennywood Park😃😃. Been fishing that river since I was a kid when the mill was still open. Unfortunately for the steel city the mills are gone. But the water is clean and fishing is good.
Spent a lot of time down on those spots, myself. Caught a Muskie right at that spot, at River Rescue. Hardest part was pulling up the drop-off.
You never know what you will catch out of the 3 rivers. I caught an alligator gar out of the Ohio on Neville Island last summer. Flatheads to muskie and saugeye not to mention the stripers. Summer night fishing with cut and live bait it can be better than Erie trolling. Nice video!
I don't mean to offend you or anything but it wouldn't be an alligator gar you got up here. I'm a fisheries biologist and lived in Pittsburgh all my life and WISH alligator gar were up here but they are a southern species. Up here we just have spotted gar, shortnose gar and longnose gar so you got one of those. Nonetheless they are all a really cool fish and going down south to catch an alligator gar is still on my list of dream fish to catch
@@ericfelix7388 No offense taken, I'm just a good ole boy fishing on the river raised up that all those long nose teethy fish are alligator gar. I don't know how to upload a picture but it was about 20" and had some spots so maybe spotted? IDK thanks for taking the time to reply.
The fish there are easy to catch in Pixburg!! They glow in the Dark!!!
The last was a freshwater Drum for sure. I never catch anything out of that river. Honestly had no idea there were all those species in there. Honestly was beginning to question if there are any fish in any of the three rivers. This video just restored my faith lol.
How do people think there are no fish in the rivers?
@@treysolomon1941 You're prolly too young to remember the steel industry. Pittsburgh used to be filthy and toxic as hell.
@@davidsaxton4211yeah and I’m sure the reason for some of these absolute giants is due to some sort of mutation like that 64 pound catfish the one guy caught but that’s just me
Could of caught a baseball as well - PNC park was right behind you. Nice fish and beautiful city
Drum sheephead
We should link up down there 🤟🏼
THAT WAS A DRUM!!!
I caught a blue whale there once using some braided line with the same kind of lead. Thought my pole was gonna break but it held on. Was my PB.
Just a heads up that was a white bass
Striped bass at The Point, "Head Of The Ohio". Fascinating.
I’m Mexican and I’m living here now in Pittsburgh, I would like fishing with you !! Teacher me
Nice lil spotted bass
Awesome video!
Last tyme eyes dahn er i dun did gud on em with a chartreuse purple headed flip-flopper tipped with paherbait

You definitely deserve more subs
hybrid bass not striped bass @4:15
i live like 45 mins away from Pittsburgh and i fish down there a lot
Nice yinzer fishing day
That was nice..
I enjoyed your video. Wish you could of caught that first fish.
What time of year was this?
White bass
I went fishing all day and to be fair I wouldn’t say my friend or I have good lures or baits, be it hard or soft bait. And this was at your exact spots mind you, any tips
Just found your channel 👍
Nice bro
Freshwater Drum
I caught fish on a cigarette butt with vanilla extract on it before there..lol
What was that silver bait called?
I used to fish there all the time
Where is that location at?
HOLY SHIT
What bait is he using
If there's musky in the waters, you need a leader.
I have a dumb question... Would you eat those fish? I'm not a fisherman, but I boat in that area all summer. I always see people fishing the rivers, but I know how nasty the water can be. Are the fish edible? Would they taste funny? I always wondered that.
It depends where you catch them. The state outlines what is a permissible amount to eat each month based on how contaminated they are. One meal per month is typical. Personally… I’d rather go to wholeys..
Where’s this at?
Where is this at I’ve been looking for somewhere to fish I’m new to the Pittsburgh area
He is on the North Shore/North Side ,from Washington Landing to the ballparks area
Fire video bro
1:13 that was a musky
is the fish good to eat in this river?
@@MASMOfishing I’m new to Pittsburgh and is any good place for crappie fishing here? Thanks.
@@hongli4908 Try Moraine State Park in Butler County or Racoon Creek State park in Beaver County.
Good video! We need to get you out on the boat with us! Watch our channel to see some of our recent catches!
Do you guys have alligator gar fish ?
Sure do. You don't catch many, but we have pulled a few out, especially about 3 miles upriver from there on the Ohio.
Don't surf swim out there just suggestion got to fast red meat 3 days.....barley oat diet
Love the video dude I live in the area If you ever need fishing friends I’m always catching walleye and big cats on this river. I’ve had walleye take my bait like that good chance that’s what it was. Could have been a Muskie. But respond to my message and we could fish one day if you’d like.
Sounds good Aiden. I don't get down to the river enough. I moved from that area but I'm still pretty close, so I'll let you know if I'm ever fishing there. Thanks for the comment dude.
