A friend and I was fishing the Gallatin TN steam plant last winter. We had 2 big live skipjack on for stripers. He was casting for more skipjack when his bait got eaten. While he was trying to get his skipjack pole in , a Skippy hit his jig. So he set that pole down. While he was fighting the striper I see his skipjack, that's still hooked on the skipjack pole, swim up to the top of the water beside the boat. Then a 25 pound striper ate the skipjack and almost pulled the pole out of the boat. I'll never forget that. The most awesome fishing visual you could imagine.
Just wanted you to know I have enjoyed your videos a lot wherever you go to fish. An old lady like me can't get out there like that anymore, I still like fishing. Thank you for sharing your trip.
Wow! Spencer it was kind of looking like you were catching bait for the bait. Also Mark us such a stud hands off another great fish like it's nothing. Congrats on another healthy striped one. As always thanks for taking us along!
The whole time I was watching the familiarity was intense then I realized I was going down memory lane thanks for the ride and nice rockfish. It's good to see guys in my old backyard . The elk and duck are my backyard now
I’ve always been a creek rat and my bigs are baits compared to what you catch! Man ol man I wish I could fish giants with someone like you for sure! Always glad to see new content! Never change brother…your camp trips are therapeutic for us working dads
Man, Spencer, just love your channel! Being an old Iowa ex-pat river rat living in Minnesota, you won't believe the river catfish disrespect I hear from these lake walleye obsessed bozos up here. If I feel the need for walleye, I'll head down to a Mississippi channel dam. I also think I recognize some of my old haunts on the DM & mighty Coon rivers. Takes me back to flathead fishing with my uncle John. Ah, the smell of stinkbait in the morning! Keep up the good work!
I believe that. My gym teacher growing up was one of those walleye anglers you speak of haha. Glad you enjoy the videos , you're talking about some of my favorite places.
That's SICK DUDE!!! Marks got the same alarm that I have ...and actually even ACTS THE SAME AS ME when it pops off!!...anyways..Spence...im headed back to THE LAKE to try and catch BIG FISH FOR THANKSGIVING!!!!hope yall have a GREAT ONE and CATCH A GREATTT ONE for Thanksgiving!!!!.....but I gotta say...I'm just a Lil jealous of you guys...but its got me ZEALOUSLY seeking BIGG FISH!!!!THANKS GUYS....KEEP'EM COMING!!!
You were fishing in my backyard for this video. We have caught a lot of striper there. I have caught more in the river instead of Caney Fork. Catch a lot of walleye and sauger in Caney.
Man Mark is a great dude handing you the rod with that tank on it! What a guy. Is he guiding you? Or is he just a nice dude? And oh yea, I was about to comment yall are using fish for bait bigger than the fish I caught for 16 years lol.
I love your channel I love the fact that you use big hooks big baits for big fish I've tried fishing with numerous buddies and they don't fish like me and I don't like putting on a babysitting service I fish out of a kayak until I find a place where I can Porsche make a camp and I use baits anywhere from Palm size perch to three and a half 4 lb suckers and I do extremely well on the Guadalupe River be just North of San Antonio Texas and my favorite fish to catch is flatheads and your channel has taught me so much my six five six seven hot hooks weren't cutting it and I really need to use your two hook rig and I can probably catch some that would be 60s and 70s pretty much every weekend but I love your channel I'm still chasing the giant my biggest is 86 and no I didn't land it got it to the boat and it ended up the paper a couple weeks later where kid out of town 30 minutes from us caught it and it was my fish but no problem but still chasing Giants have fun and I will watch every video you post thank you
We do love fishing with big live skippies in tn.. hooking into the 30-40lb stripers is some of the most exciting fights you'll ever have. Oh and catching the big ones on artificial is even better :)
I do landscaping and fishing and hunting is harder . More enjoyable but it's work. A few hours in 10 degrees is going to be rough this weekend. Some good days and some good days with hunting and fishing.
if you ever convince ryan on a internation trip ya gotta strap a camra to his head just to see the random shit he gets into lol because we all know hed be the first to jump in after a fish and tto fight a crocodillaform
I have one question when is the best time to go for flats head here in Illinois I’m from pekin by powerton witch I’ve seen u have fished before I usually fish at the Mackinaw river
Man those are monster and those baits would be killer for flatties. Has dude ever tried trolling big rattle traps? I'll hit you back on Gmail in a day or two. We been busier than a cat covering up poop. Awesome vid and keep your powder dry and your pantry stocked young man 💪😎🙏
Dude down in tenn you gotta get with justin from kayak catfish. These two do vids together something. It would be a fan freakin tastic video. Per the usual of course.
Nice job Spencer, enjoy the channel.. seems you are getting more commercials on your channel.. it's ok, I sit through them because? I think it's helps you with gas money.. 🎣😄
You would break a nose for a 30 and chip off a cpl front teeth for a 50. If I ever got an opportunity to fish with you the first thing I would do is put my teeth in my pocket. Love your vids.

That was amazing. Mark - what a nice guy! Great scenery and just an awesome ride. Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you had a good time while you were here. Hope you return and I can try to meet you.
Woooo doggy, what better way to start a morning than to watch giant baits get got! Much love from the Philippines
Wow! Spencer it was kind of looking like you were catching bait for the bait. Also Mark us such a stud hands off another great fish like it's nothing. Congrats on another healthy striped one. As always thanks for taking us along!

What a great trip, watched, liked, and subscribed to Top Knox…. Great time, always a joy to watch!
Really enjoyed watching you fish with Marc he is a heck of a great angler . Always catching Hawgs. Again much enjoyed
Those skipjack look fun. They're just like hickory shad catch them by the hundreds every spring
Looks fun! Thanks for the videos River Certified and Top Knox!

I got a trip to Texoma in February scheduled, hoping for some big stripped fish and some big blues. Great video Spencer keep it up.
You were fishing in my backyard for this video. We have caught a lot of striper there.

Catch a lot of walleye and sauger in Caney.

Well that was a tank for sure.. awesome catch bud
Congratulations guys on the Giant striper
There's a lake up by me lake wallenpaupack that has some massive hybrids in it

Foley spoons are my go too skipjack lire that and crappie jigs they kill it in My area of arkansas
Awesome catch man.
I got a friend who lives right by the clinch I sure need to go see him And do some of that fishing there puts Texoma too shame
If big stripe Feesh don't get your heart pounding you may be dead! C'MON Baseball! Is it Spring yet?
Nice striper! You guys worked for that one.
I haven't been fishing in like two months now and it's killing me.
Love the vidoes
I love fishing there!!
Man that was a HAWG!
if you ever convince ryan on a internation trip ya gotta strap a camra to his head just to see the random shit he gets into lol because we all know hed be the first to jump in after a fish and tto fight a crocodillaform
For a big bait fish those skips seem a little temperamental in the tank. Nice to see you get a stick bender in the end!
I have one question when is the best time to go for flats head here in Illinois I’m from pekin by powerton witch I’ve seen u have fished before I usually fish at the Mackinaw river
River certified merch....
Congratulations brother, I've never caught a striper
Well done bud!! Not quite a wels... But a great fish none the less 👌
Couldn’t you put some kind of aquarium tank oxygenation thing on your bait tank?
That striper was a beast. “PB?” Ha! Just kidding!! Looks like it was a great experience!!
Nice fish!
Time paid off. Nice Striper.
Come to Ohio! We have gigantic steelhead that are biting now ! Line peeling monsters and alot are over 10 lbs
Man those are monster and those baits would be killer for flatties. Has dude ever tried trolling big rattle traps? I'll hit you back on Gmail in a day or two. We been busier than a cat covering up poop. Awesome vid and keep your powder dry and your pantry stocked young man 💪😎🙏
What a monster!
What lure setup to catch skips
where y'all fishing at
I love all your videos, but I'm really missing flatheads. Spring needs to hurry.
Dude down in tenn you gotta get with justin from kayak catfish. These two do vids together something. It would be a fan freakin tastic video. Per the usual of course.
Hell of a good fish
Where are y’all fishing at?
You ever tried Nikajack dam??
Nice job Spencer, enjoy the channel.. seems you are getting more commercials on your channel.. it's ok, I sit through them because?
I think it's helps you with gas money..
🎣😄
What was the net guy doing? Lol
*Boat weight rating tag* Am I a joke to you? 😆
Tell buddy put the phone down next time lol damn kids
Glad I wasn't backing that boat up a tree for them. The humor author Patric F McManus has humorous outdoorsy stories competitive to this video.
Joooo Spence
Where are you guys fishing at in Iowa? I live in NE Iowa and the rivers look similar but we don't have stripers like that
He's fishing in Tennessee with Marc Cooper.
@@jeremybolin5832 interesting how similar it looks to NE iowa
Lumenvitae where at in Iowa. I am moving from alaska to cedar rapids area 2023. Would like to meet people to fish with n learn from
Did you see all that deer meat at the beginning of the video
What is the bag of stuff
Man I would love to go fish with you
I'm going to book a trip with him soon. (He's a guide with a website.)
I'd punch someone in the face..... lol
Thats classic
Dude with the net new to fishing?
In my head I was saying don’t put the net in the water till you are going to net him. You let him get away with that for a while before you said it.
Now that was a sloppy striped fish
Did you want him to scoop’em in the net?! 😅
Oklahoma water
Steep and leafy on that ramp.
I'd fish all day and all night for a big catfish but not for fish with stripes!!
🍀🤘🤘
Nice cow..
Thanks man
@@RiverCertified You know that means get a bigger one?
@@jameswalsh3976 I'm gonna try
You would break a nose for a 30 and chip off a cpl front teeth for a 50. If I ever got an opportunity to fish with you the first thing I would do is put my teeth in my pocket. Love your vids.
No tortillas?
What was the weight. I hate mysteries
He almost costed you that fish trying to net it one handed because he was worried about recording on his phone
Net job was cringey
Painful!
It always is with Spencer and his friends . They need to go trout fishing or something to get some better net skills lol 😂
Came here to say that 😂
Um seems fine cringey lamo whatever
@@jeremywells2904 yo comment cringey
