    Still going back to find more of your content for extra info and this one was amazing! Nice fish dude!

    Man, much respect. I love all of your videos. You do what you have to do to catch fish. Much like myself. Although I don't have a boat. But I go through pure hell sometimes to get myself in the right positions to catch a good one. Keep up the good work bro.

    Beautiful fish, I love all fishing, but nothing like a catfish bite especially a flathead, in fact going in the morning got a creek full of chubs right behind the house, great video 👍
  • Dandy! You have a lot more water than we do. Had to drag our kayaks a half a dozen times yesterday on the Des Moines river. Great video
  • @mahoney1138
    Checking out some of your old vids and had to know what section you were on. Good thing Im a master at google maps and know my rivers pretty well ;)  Great vid
  • Stud channel cat!! I went to the Ohio River for 3 days in a row this weekend. I was hitting flatheads on nightcrawler the first night. Then the next 2 mornings on while creek chubbs and cut creek chubbs. Caught 9 flats, biggest one was 26lbs, and I caught 4 stud drums, biggest 12lbs. So much fun!!! I guess u can say that I was River Certified!!! No pun just fun!!
  • This is a SWEET video, Spenser. I can't believe you can land a fish that big on a kayak!
  • I'm really digging your channel, Bro. By the looks of it, I need to come out to Iowa and try to find a flathead or two! I've never tried creek chubs in Michigan. I always use spiney baitfish
  • Loving the videos man! I just subbed! I'd love to get ahold of some creek chubs to use!
  • @62oldawg

  • @hikewadepaddle

    Hell yea man. I had goosebumps when u hooked that flatty. I'm sure it was super exciting. U got me hooked. I'm a subscriber 😁👍🏻
  • I fish alot for catfish in northwestern Pennsylvania. On the western border of my state there is a massive reservoir called Pymatuning. Over the past 4-5 years I've caught well over 400 channel cats out of the lake. I use a combo of bluegills, nightcrawlers, cut bait (fish, woodchuck hearts and goose hearts from hunting, liver, gizzards), and creek chubs. I clean house with creek chubs. They are just perfect bait. Nothing beats setting the hook and seeing the rod tip bend and feeling them just stop like a cement block stuck on the bottom right before they really start fighting. And the burst of energy right as you get them close to shore is just explosive.

    I was catching a bunch of blues on my last try with creek chubs. Nice fish!
  • @SuperHank777
    Very nice!! Wish I could find some chubs! They're hard to get here lol.
  • @TheOutdoorsman

  • @balla2172
