- In this video I meet up with Dome Life at the Caddo river in Arkansas and I kayak camp for the very first time! Cody and I fish and catch endless fish such as smallmouth bass, brim, stripped bass, and I catch a crappie! We have a hoot of a time swimming and playing in the water and by the end I am sun burned.

You are all such good people. That's the biggest value of your videos for me, apart from joining in with the adventures. It's important for others to see the world has good people in it, which is comforting and consoling in our strange times. Thank you!
Had a blast with you brother! You did an amazing job on this vlog!
Had a blast with y’all as well! Thank you!
Didn't know you had a channel until Cody mentioned it, so I liked and subscribed. Buona fortuna!
Just subbed !
Your relationship with The 3 of you is very sweet!You guys are very blessed to have such a close family!
It's a nice thing to see.
That was fun. Thank you for sharing your adventures on the water and camping .
You were right. It's Swingin. :)
You've got to have fun in life and this trip of yours looked very enjoyable. Please keep sharing your fun with us, and thank you.
Much improved video quality! Thanks for sharing your adventure.
I really like the peaceful nature of your videos along with important facts. ❤❤❤
Going on an adventure in the wild is the greatest thing! You set an expectation make a plan, that's about the best you can do. Sometimes it gets rocky, those times will be the prelude that will make the most memories for you. These are places you cannot see from the car. It can be hard work, but that's what got you there. It will be worth a belly laugh later, some mistakes, determination and all of the things that make a great adventure. I'm loving your videos!
Thank you for watching!
Ha! I was ducking when you went under the limb! That looks like fun!
Fun video! Looks like you all had a fabulous time. 😊
Love that sound of water. Some of those places looked shallow. U guys r hellarious floating on u backs down water. Lol!
Love the outgoing, "keep it wild!"
Swanging Bridge Access 🤣
This year's drought was no joke! It transformed a lot of streams I love into rocky creek beds! Fortunately, Missouri and Arkansas are full of springs to keep some of our rivers flowing. Awesome trip and thanks for picking up the trash!!
i just absolutely love your videos johnathan they are a special treat each time. you make my love for Arkansas nature even bigger
i LOVE to kayak and fish. If i ever make it to Arkansas I'll definitely check out Caddo River. That looks like such a fun day!
what a fun trip! loved it.
We love to kayak the Caddo but have never gone past Glenwood. Will have to try that on our next trip. Great job on the video, Johnny! OMG, and listening to your sister scream was hilarious.
Great perspective
I
Like you history plugs
Your fishing is very good 👍
I'm from the UK and love the USA.Came over to your channel via dome life.Cant wait for our next USA vacation in Southern Arizona next march.Good luck with your Channel.
I’ve canoed that river many times. Can get tricky in a canoe. River is so clear. There’s some pretty big fish in there. Seen one at least 3 feet long swim under our canoe. Lots of gar & baby turtles too. Thank you for picking up other people’s trash & helping to keep that river & wildlife alive & clean.
Great vlog John B ! What a beautiful river and I knew exactly what you meant about the water and the sun ! I’ve tubed down Rainbow River in Florida, which is a spring, so cold water and hot sun are definitely a match made in heaven lol 😆 So glad you enjoyed your trip 😎
Jonathan, this was my first time watching your channel and I loved it! Well done! You are an excellent speaker. The part of the video I really enjoyed was of you all floating down the rapids. I loved the Salt River near Pphoenix, Arizona, where we tied a dozen or so inner tube together. Two were dedicated to a coolers. So much fun. Great video, Jonathan, and you acquired a new subscriber. Good luck...you're gonna grow big!
Good video really enjoyed it alot. Stay safe and enjoy
Thanks Jonathan...looks like a great trip.
Looks like you all had a great time together!
It's my pet peeve too when I see litter on the water or just along a road! Why are some people just so damn lazy that they just don't take their trash out at a convenience store or home! Wow! All that floating down the river looked, and sounded, like lots of fun! 😂 Loved hearing Kelly scream! lol! What a great trip that turned out to be 😊Thanks for sharing!
J.W with in 5 Hours 1.2K is Epic for sure. 💯💯❤🔥Love you Bro keep it Coming. Domb life forever.💖👍😜🤪HOLD up wait a minute. Dome life part two with J.W. 💖💯
I found myself ducking sitting in my recliner watching the video. Lol. Just a couple hazards. The body surfing looked like fun.
So fun Johnathan 🎉
Love all your “fun Facts”
Please keep those history fun facts coming!
I laughed 😂 along with you all as you swam down the Caddo river!
What a wonderful video
I’ve got to get there!
This. Is. One. Of. The. Best. Vidoe. Ya. Made. I. Love. To. Watch. Fun. And. Funny. I. Like. Others. Ya. Made. Also. Very. Relaxing. To. Watch. Them. In. The. Arkansas. Ones. The. Most
Thank you so much!
Beautiful scenery!! The boat dragging is just that....A total drag!! Lol
Videos are your thing for sure!! Love it!!
Lol I just watched your sister n Cody now ima watch you brother hahaha 🍻💙😎🔥🌮💪🏕️
Hell let Cody and Kelly know too but if you tie a short rope to the front of you kayak you don't have to bend over or pick it up to drag it through the shallows. Enjoying the channel.
Good one Johnny!
Enjoyed the video, Johnathon!
Great video enjoyed it very much.
Enjoying your videos of all the beautiful sites of Arkansas. My biggest pet peeve is litter also...it doesn't make sense why ppl litter. Have fun and stay safe on all of your adventures!
Looks like epic arrowhead hunting territory
Keep it Wild!!😎
Jonathan! I loved this video! Good job!
Good job fixing your sound Johnny B Whild.
Real fun vlog! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Jonathan! I have seen you in Kellie and Cody's vlogs. I didn't know you had a channel and it came up on my feed. What an awesome vlog!! I subscribed. Nice sunglasses! It was so fun to go on the river with you three. Funny..I actually shifted in my seat once when you were digging in to get over some rocks. I've been in my kayak twice this season. I need to get on a river very soon! Thanks for the push.
It was funny how you filmed those snakes, one was eating something I think, Wow! Creepy! Dont care for snakes and spiders.
Well, keep enjoying life and making these vlogs. Cheers!
Fun trip!!!
Loved your video and all the little interesting information you told along the way.
Someone may have already mentioned that the colorful little fish you caught at 7:32 are called pumpkinseed sunfish or perch. Beautiful little creatures. Beautiful stream.
Yes they are!
Great vid ...thx for sharing.....can't wait to go camping with my friends .....we're all kayak nuts also ......so hooked on taking now 😁
Great video vlog.😍
Would like to see more canoe/kayak camping! Love that stuff! Wow,look how many people are following you already!
That was fun to watch. What was up with those snakes on the rock? Looked like a water snake and a cottonmouth hanging out together eating a fish.😮 Thanks for taking us along on the river.
First time watching... So cool to see the American flag hanging over the river awesome 👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲 take care be safe God bless y'all!!! ✌️🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I thought so as well! Very unexpected on the river
Fun video. thanks for sharing.
Great trip, great video JW.
I always feel nervous when I paddle under trees. I’ve seen too many snakes in overhanging branches. How often have you contended with similar circumstances in Arkansas? Great video. I love that you include some history, and I really love that you seem to look in the same direction I’m wishing I could look. Hahaha. 😁😁😁
I have seen snakes in trees while paddling but never had any fall on me, yet.
@@johnnywhild If one fell on me, … Man! you’d see this girl walk on water and fly through the air. The thought totally freaks me out! Thanks for the reply. Cheers.
I would probably freak out and hurt myself flailing, but never be bitten.😅
@@ursinidaho 😁 I'd consider that a positive outcome versus snake bite!!
HI JOHNATHAN 👋
GORGEOUS AREA 😉 THE KAYAK RIDE LOOKED LIKE A LOT OF FUN ! WHEN YOU PITCHED YOU'LLS TENTS ⛺ ⛺ DID YOU USE THE ORIGINAL TENT STACKS OR LONGER ONES 🤔 DO YOU LIKE THE SIT ON TOP KAYAKS BETTER THAN SIT IN ONES ? HOPEFULLY YOU PUT SUNTAN LOTION ! IT LOOKED LIKE A LOT OF FUN , GLAD YOU'LL CAUGHT SOME FISH 🐟 ON YOUR ADVENTURES DOWN THE RIVER ! JUST KEEP AN EAR / EYE OUT FOR STORMS UP STREAMS FROM YOU'LL ! IT'S ALWAYS FUN WATCHING 👀 YOU'LL ! OH HOW LONG & WIDE IS A GOOD KAYAK TO GET , PLUS WITH HATCHES TOO . BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! ENJOYED 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 GOD BLESS YOU ALL ALWAYS ON YOUR ADVENTURES 🙏 THANK YOU 🙏 😀 😊
I used the stakes that came with the tent and there was not any wind so longer stakes were not needed. Definitely a sit on top kayak! More versatile than a sit in kayak.
I feel like we’ve had a lot of rain. I’m surprised the river is that low.
The eastern half of America has been experiencing a dry spell for at least a month, maybe longer. It will take lots of rain to get water levels back up!
Longear Sunfish at 7:35. If they grew to five pounds instead of five ounces, they'd break your rod off. Green Sunfish at 9:37.
Hello mr
Wild , I just subscribed to your awesome channel me and my wife also watch dome life and wanted to support you keep up p the awesome work 🤙
What a great river even if you do have to walk a little bit it seems like a great river to kayak You guys always have the best spots can't wait to visit some of them in future❤❤❤
What kind of snake was that on the rock? Was it a water moccasin? As you paddled close to the banks and under the trees, I recalled a canoe trip on the New River in western NC about 20 years ago. Paddling under trees, my friend and I were afraid a snake would fall into our canoe from a tree branch. Instead, a big fish jumped into our canoe, just about causing me a heart attack! Glad you all had a good time.
I believe they were a non venomous common water snake.
You should have played that fish longer and let him take some drag, Jonathan! I've lost nice fish in my haste to get them in as well, and will continue to do so for years to come:)
Y’all using head mounted GoPro?
I love the kayaking videos with your sister and brother in law Kellie and Cody. Y’all are so fun to watch.
Yes, we are using the GoPro head mount. I am wanting to get my hands on a chest mount for maybe a better perspective?
@@johnnywhild I agree the chest mount would be a better perspective
Which GoPro do y’all use?
If y’all are using treble hooks, it would be better for the fish if you flattened the barbs. It’s more sporting that way, too.
Just found your channel and subbed. I have been seeing you on Cody and Kelly's channel 😊
hey if you have a piece of rope tied to the handle on the bow it helps to pull in shallow water.
Please watch out for all the snakes. Please!!!
Hi Jonathan
Awesome! Will you be putting links for your equipment someday? 😊
P.S. I kept ducking and leaning when you went under branches! 😂
You guys would love the Sacramento River fishing in the Tehama County area!❤❤
Man, I love watching the videos that you and Dome Life post. Such genuine people, real, down to earth, and loving the simple fun life! I do have a question for you. What kind of Go Pro do you use? My wife and I are thinking about getting one to record our adventures with our family. Not sure which way to go! Thanks again!
Thank you for watching! I use the GoPro hero 9. It has been a great device. I do recommend purchasing a second battery to go along with it as one battery will not stay charged very long.
@@johnnywhild Awesome, thanks so much for replying to me! Have a great week!
Watched same on Dome life. You both gave it your unique artistry and perspective. Congratulations and much success with your channel!
Was that’s Brim, also, that Cody caught? What type of snake was that on the rock? It was creepily huge!!
Yes those were brim, and the snake I believe was a non venomous common water snake.
im in Southern Kentucky let go fishing
The Amity take out is about 5 minutes from my house.. did y'all read up on the sewage leak before your float?
We did not. I just read up on it
Man awesome trip. You out fish Cody lol was this the trip where he lost his phone?
Yes this was the trip Cody lost his phone
Man what we going to do with him lol I have been following them for years lol and he always has a guff up. Now I intend to follow you both 🤙
🙀…Was that two large 🐍 on that rock y’all floated by and if so what kind?
Yes it was two large snakes! I believe they are a non venomous common water snake.
John , where are you gonna be during the solar eclipse?
I will be at Mount Nebo state park working that day!
Was that a python at 11:23?
I believe they are a non venomous common water snake.
So this is recent I take it? Are u saying the Buffalo river is non navigable right now?
There are many websites to check water levels for a lot of the rivers and creeks in America, including the buffalo river. Arkansas has experienced some rain this past week which has made some rivers more runnable. Water levels can change within minutes depending on the amount of rain!
What kayak do you have?
My kayak is a Perception Angler 10
Yours not mine
What is the name of the Dome Life hummer? I
The bearjew!
@@johnnywhild 🙂 is there an interesting story behind the name?
@@veeemit9719 yes on dome life they have explained it. basically its named after a movie character
🎣 Johnathan…You’ve such a calm, easygoing, happy demeanor I can only imagine how wonderful a daddy you’d become should children be in your future. The several occasions I’ve seen Erica well she seems to be such a sweet gal and darling companion it’ll be interesting to see what both your futures hold. 🏕
Camping is fun.
Camping with your family and having a great time like you guys floating in the life jackets...thats the best. 🏕 🏞🤙
