    Hey man. Brilliant channel. Grew up in Iowa on the Wapsipinicon (Wapsi). 20 years ago I met a beautiful Norwegian girl and switched countries. There aren't too many things I miss from the states aside from family and friends, sweet corn and catfishing. There are no big ugly mean brown things over here, except for halibut in the ocean. Really enjoy your channel. Brings back a ton of memories. Keep up the good work. Already looking forward to the next episode. If you ever find yourself in Norway, look me up. I'll buy you a beer.

    One night me and my buddy were doing a flathead trip during the mayfly hatch. The bugs were thick on top of the water, and for probably a one mile stretch of river there were channel cats skimming the surface with their top lips out of the water just cruising around scooping up mouthfuls of bugs
    . I'm talking between 12"- 30" channels. 1#-10+# probably 250 of them or better. They were all below a large power plant downstream of the warm water run-out from the plants cooling system. Only time I've ever seen them ride the surface like that. Awesome video though

    Hey bud fishing brush piles is my "specialty." I call it precision guided fishing like precision guided bombing because i put my bait right on top of them to do the most damage and then work the bait out around the snags when I'm moving my bait around. I have been fishing brush piles for 25 years and it's my favorite kind of fishing. You can't give them one inch of slack, hook getting turned around and out of the snag. I use 9 foot ugly stick with a Garcia 7000c3. You cannot beat the Garcia gear ratio and drag for not giving in when your cranking big flatheads out of heavy cover. But just a suggestion I only use one pole and I hold it the entire time I'm fishing heavy brush piles because I have more authority over my bait and can keep him moving when he's not or keep him from going deeper into the snag. It keeps it simpler when your fishing for 50 plus pound flatheads in that crap. Love the video!

  • @chadnolte1546
    @chadnolte1546 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great show. I do a lot of wade fishing and just fish in the piles of brush. But I notice my hook up aren't that good. I'm using a 8ot big river made by guamagetzu. Should i be using a circle hook maybe since sometimes they slam it and I forget to set hook it happens so fast.

    • @RiverCertified

    Caught 30-40 lbers in the Mississipi. They were beautiful! Think they're record channel cats? Not with that tail! Looking for 80 lb pictures. No luck yet. There's a big one in the TN aquarium with a face like a muckshovel. Maybe they're different? Florida bass are so much prettier than Texas bass. Living in Mexico missing my catfish. Bagre! Mexican word for hardhead.Welcome to my life.

    Went fishing Sunday night, but the river was flowing too hard and moving bait way downstream. Caught a 5 pounder and a baby flathead on trot lines tho. I don’t see how you consistently catch flatheads, it’s really impressive.

    Another great video bro! Super exciting! I'm really interested in a nuconue kayak and wondering on your preference between the f10 and f12. Mainly be using it on smaller creeks and rivers?

    • @RiverCertified
      @RiverCertified  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Glad ya enjoyed it! My favorite is the f10 because its really easy to move around and if ya gotta haul it up yhe bank thats really nice. If you gotta paddle very far though, the 12 is where its at.

    Hey man quick question. So I want to start throwing to Santee Cooper Rig. Just to try it out. I’ve always use just regular Carolina rigs and regular three-way singer-hook. I was gonna go get basic peg flow. But now there’s all these like fancy lure looking peg floats. Is that even worth it? you know what they say lures catch fisherman not fish or something like that haha.

    • @RiverCertified
      @RiverCertified  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      For drifting and trolling the rattlers from whiskerseeker definitely help. Live bait fishing they have a tendency to tangle. Just use a regular peg float for that. I think I have a link in my description
