  • It was one of those days were a lot of things weren't going right. Bait was tough, getting to the spot was tough, had a black cat run across the road in front of me. But, it only takes one bite, and I was fortunate to get it!

    I'm new to your channel and like your content very much. I love the way you include the whole process of catching the bait and the catch and cook. I've lived hunting and fishing for 45 years now and I just hope younger people carry on this tradition.

    I really liked this particular video(although I thoroughly enjoy all of your videos) because you accurately showed the entire process of catching bait and all of the trials and tribulations that go along with it, all the way through to getting on the river and going for those big ugly flatheads! People done often realize what a struggle catching proper bait can be at times and it’s good to show the entire process, just to portray that it really is an all day venture most often and it’s anything but easy! Thanks for taking your time to make these videos for all of us!

    Moon phases absolutely matter for both hunting and fishing. We run trail cameras on 5 properties in 2 states, and you'll have these one-off nights once or twice a month where you just see a shitload of big animal activity. More often than not, those nights correlate to moon phase changes.

    • @RiverCertified

      Couldn't agree more. The more I've learned, the better I've been able to adjust tactics, and it seems like I catch more fish.

    That’s a damn beast. Yes, sleep is needed. A few of the spots I travel to, I’m able to back down to water and catch some sleep in back of whatever vehicle I’m in at time. Sometimes in A/C, it’s so nerve racking when you need to sleep but are focused on hearing the clickers or the singing of bells. It’s usually not a very relaxing snooze. Anyway, I’m glad you caught another Giant sir.

That usually equates to between 45 and 50. We caught a 10 incher last weekend and it went 72. Another cool trip it looks like.

      The challenge is one part that drew me in, but the adventure chasing them is the best part!

    Wow that was a monster! Like always another great video. Would love to see you get a tank and keep one of those small flatties for a pet.

    From one angler to the other nice vid and nice catch. I wish I had thought of recording my fishing trips before I got married. I had some good ones and lots of bad and hilariously funny with friends back in colorado and kentucky.

    I wish I could find big cats in northern lower Michigan. I have been enjoying your vids and can’t wait for it to warm up a bit. By the way I like the catch and cook from the bank

    • @RiverCertified
      @RiverCertified  Před 4 měsíci

      I've heard some of the rivers in southern Michigan are really good. Hope you find some man!

    @drw5252 Před 3 lety

    I live in Texas and here where I live we don't have Creek chubs about all we have are the pollywogs mud cats perch I bet they're pretty good bait though the creek chubs that is great video keep them coming

  • @MarkWilliams-yx7bx
    @MarkWilliams-yx7bx Před 4 lety +1

    Great video as always. Growing up outside of waterloo only fished the cedar,wapsi, iowa river mainly. Never once caught a big flathead. Only small in the cedar. Back then could only use chubs. You couldn't use any other live bait. Hopefully get back there and try again the rivers. I know some small creeks off cedar with lots of cover that should produce

    • @RiverCertified
      @RiverCertified  Před 4 lety

      I've heard lots of great things about those rivers! Hope you find em!

  • @clearlyepic9958
    @clearlyepic9958 Před 4 lety +1

    Ok that does it! Gonna get a kayak and head to Iowa! Non-resident permits are cheaper than Nebraska!

    • @RiverCertified
      @RiverCertified  Před 4 lety +1

      I'm not gonna stop ya, but I promise the flathead fishing is better in nebraska. Kinda jealous really.

    • @clearlyepic9958
      @clearlyepic9958 Před 4 lety

      Well I did catch a baby Flathead a mile upstream from that spot you fished with J on Sunday... 8” at best.

  • @hensleyshobbies-doug7761
    @hensleyshobbies-doug7761 Před 4 lety +1

    Ol’ buddy of mine used to whack the Flatheads on nothing but mostly chubs, about the size you were catching there. And under a big pole float! Man, he’s hit some big flatheads too, but that was at a lot of different paylakes too though, and if he wasn’t using chubs he was using green sunfish or warmouths.

    • @RiverCertified
      @RiverCertified  Před 4 lety +1

      Everything likes to eat a creek chub it seems. I really like them in the spring and fall.

    • @hensleyshobbies-doug7761
      @hensleyshobbies-doug7761 Před 4 lety

      River Certified - yeah, I believe that’s when my buddy liked to use them too..probably still does.?!?!

    Nice flathead. Sometimes catching the bait is as fun as the actual fishing trip.

      @RiverCertified  Před 4 lety +1

      Gotta agree. Taking my mom out baitfishing tonight. Should be entertaining haha
