I was laughing to myself earlier, thinking Rod is definitely going to like this. I have been wanting to go bank fishing and I didn’t like the way the weather was acting the other day so I wanted to be safe than sorry and I will ended up working out really well. Tons of fun with them youngsters, they keep you on your toes.
Sorry you broke your rod, but what a great video. I appreciate you explaining your technique. I would love to fish that spot, but I can’t handle the rocks. Thanks for your terrific videos.
I sure appreciate you watching, it’s a rough little area that’s for sure. Got to take your time really good plus the other problem is all the people, I was lucky to be able to slip in that day, which was really weird ha ha
That's my home spot, I live 5 minutes down the road from there. Last year I caught 6 trophy size species from the beach. Once u figure out the fish, they're easy to catch.
Hey man i watched this last night on the tv and forgot to comment. Good job out there i enjoyed it! I have a couple places i could try this. Thanks for the info 👍
I was mainly catching the small ones there about five or 6 inches right now. I lucked out and got those two big ones that you saw on camera. Plenty of little ones around and actually all over the river right now.
Hope to run into you someday down there. Been 6 diff times with no luck snag snag snag. Now gonna try the rigging you shown. Oh an its weird not seeing a certain group of ppl hogging the wall up lol. Must've been their day off.
Yep not one striper guy. Probably cause wasn’t any out there except for a couple white bass plus it was supposed to rain and storm that morning. Really crazy because it was Sunday also ha ha
I do enjoy the bank vids. In fact a bank vid was how I found your channel. As I recall, Hagan mentioned it, Planer board from the bank I think it was. I still need to try that.
It’s usually good for a few cats and a blast on the stripers if you can get your butt in that area. I don’t have very good tolerance when it comes to getting crowded so I’m usually not over in the wall area to much
One of them has a custom built 11ft8” Batson casting and a Saint Croix 11 foot mojo spinning. Float would be fine as long as you know your depth, and stay somewhere bottom. Good luck 🍀
Honestly, haven’t bothered going since they shut them down. I guess we got a couple more weeks hopefully not three till they turn them back on. Usually fills up with gar when the water is low and they have them shut down
Ya stupid things man. I don’t like being on camera with that. It’s one of my downfalls. but the darn fish kept hitting, so I didn’t have anywhere to put it down out of sight like in my boat. Eventually, I’m gonna give them up.
@riverlunacy good on you bro..I was just kidding about it because you mentioned it in the vid..I live about 13 miles from the mighty Mississippi in nw Tennessee..I hate them barges and don't catfish much there because of them. But they are some absolute monsters in there for sure..I think I'm gonna get back into catfishing because I enjoyed it more..I'm a big crappie and bass guy but catfishing is 2nd ta none.
@@riverlunacy 25mins mud bottom pulled on line with only fingertips. Couldn't get him to turn around so i pain manage him to the riverbank. Second time he stayed long enough to grab him. Great spot and video bud👍
Stop sayin Eatin size if youre just gonna turn em loose. Eatin means it goes home and gets eatin. If you are putting them back, they are "Chuck It Back" size.
A good sportsman doesn’t always keep all their fish He’s saying they are good eating size but he’s not keeping it No one likes an internet smart ass that types more than fishes
@DustinPFishing 😂 I kind of like him, now when I throw a fish back, I call him chuck it. He’s watching and commenting so that helps my channel out. 👌 Thanks to both of ya
A day of some good time just fishing because it's what you like to do. Thanks for letting us on your adventures.
A fun time. Thanks Andi
I guess you don’t need to be on a boat hihi , thanks so much for the video sir
No, I don’t have to have a boat haha
Another good “bank” fishing video. Really enjoyed. A lot of action.

If they are there it can be a good time

I wonder if watching on TV credits as a view?
@@RiverRat-2112 it does
@@fishinfever Cool. Can't comment from my TV but watching on the bigger screen is nicer.
@@RiverRat-2112 i agree, i do livestreams and my vjewers prefer the tv
Yes
Heck of a workout day. Looked like big fun🎣💪
No doubt buddy that’s just part of the day right there ha ha we didn’t have enough time for the whole video
@@riverlunacy was really nice with that cloud cover and looked hot errrr when the clouds disappeared. Regardless bro, looked like a wonderful day
Definitely
Nice james wish I could get on some skipjacks like that but good day of fishing James buddy

No, it was drifting from the bank. Now you got to see the dragging/walking version ha ha.
Good stuff brother. We fish alot of the same areas. Keep it up, Fantastic stuff
Thank you. Always more on the way
One of my favorite spots when it's not full people. Great day man.
It’s usually good for a few cats and a blast on the stripers if you can get your butt in that area. I don’t have very good tolerance when it comes to getting crowded so I’m usually not over in the wall area to much
Awesome video man thanks for bringing this to us I definitely learned something from this thank u very much
Thank you I appreciate the nice comment
Sweeet spot
I love it there
😎👊
It’s too much fun, I love popping them baits around
Fished that alot with no success. Will have to try that technique next time I'm there. Looked like a good time
Sometimes it’s not the size that matters apparently ha ha. I sure had a blast. Good luck I’m sure you’ll do fine next time
Thanx, ill have to try this technique some time.
Thanks for watching. Works well with fast water.
is this the meldahl? ive never been but want to try it out.. i usually fish the markland but the ky side has horrible access and parking.
Yes. Thanks for watching
Keep up the good work man!
Thanks buddy 🦾
Below that dam is one of my favorite places to fish. Especially in the Winter. It can be either on fire or absolutely nothing.
The Byrd is like that. Very seldom do you get a mediocre day, most times it is either hot or dead.
Absolutely agree with that, either on or off. Seems like they’re always somewhere though.
no boat no kayak just bank fishing for any thing to eat. lol. fish on fish gone.
I regretted not keeping a couple of them youngsters that day for the grill. Thanks for watching.
Good times!
2PoleMfnTodd🦾🦾
That’s right!🦾💯
Do you think the sandbar area is good too? I’ve only been there twice didn’t have much luck off the pier or the sandbar each trip
Sandbar is good when the waters up some
What is that rod you a using? Would a float by bait work to from snagging? Wonder if work in a eddy of river? I might try this out to.
One of them has a custom built 11ft8” Batson casting and a Saint Croix 11 foot mojo spinning. Float would be fine as long as you know your depth, and stay somewhere bottom. Good luck 🍀
I fish here all the time. U have any luck since the generators have been off?
Honestly, haven’t bothered going since they shut them down. I guess we got a couple more weeks hopefully not three till they turn them back on. Usually fills up with gar when the water is low and they have them shut down
@riverlunacy yeah man, haven't been out there too much besides for skipjack
Got some skips at Wilson today thank God
You need one more cig..lol

I don’t know what you’re waiting for ha ha
Caught a 45lb+ flathead on 15lb w/ an ultra-light... Talk about fun😅
Now that’s a long fight. Good going man

Yeaaaaaaahhhh
Ya buddy fun stuff
Dude that sky is heavenly when your rod got messed up. Sry bout the rod tho
I’ll fix it. Was my fault. Only had the butt looped under a rock. Yes was a nice day
I knew that rod didn’t break on me
Hahaha
Promo'SM 👌
Thanks

Good point. I guess I should start saying I don’t know if I’m gonna eat it so I guess I’ll just chuck it up haha
