Happy Birthday Alex. My wife was in the other room while I’m watching your video. You bust out in the Pina Colada song and continue into the higher pitch. She is busting up, I am busting up. Ha ha. You bring many forms of entertainment to your fans!! Ha ha.
Happy Birthday Alex , can't wait to see both you guys in more videos together both showing me different jigs and lures that I can try in my neck of the woods.
Happy birthday man! You are the king of the weird situations but this year I ran into some guys who backed a truck so far down into Truman Lake that they were swimming up into the bed like a swim up bar. They got stuck and same thing, doors open music blasting and totally ignored my presence.
Happy Birthday..thanks for spending it with us on video and taking us along. WTF is right with that truck in the middle of the river. It takes all kinds. You got some great fish today... I could watch your videos ALL day...Esp with your singing, please don't quit the fishing life for an appearance on the Voice or America's Got Talent, not because you "didn't sing well" (uh hmm ), but because we would miss you. LOL 😎🤠🤭
You ain’t gonna get John to sing. I was at his house a week or so ago and he was washing his newer suburban. I told him for his next video on it that he needs a camera set up recording him washing it with “Shes my cherry pie!!” playing on that clip lol also happy burfday sir 😎
Come to arkansas. These kinds of a holes ruined our little smallmouth creek with their side by sides. Can’t find a backwash anywhere where the mud isn’t rainbow from the hydrocarbons washing off and into. Seen them park in 4 ft deep holes at the end of rapids and use the roof of their jeeps to jump in the water. Absolutely terrible people.
The choppo in the 75 size in bullfrog has been getting it done for me. It got me my PB- 17 3/4 prob 2.75-3lb smallie. Another that’s been surprisingly good is a belly weighted berkley fluke in white. The last honorable mention is Storm 360 GT Search bait. All have been producers for me this year. Man, inflatables have came along way. I got rid of mine due to the fact I couldn’t keep it positioned and the stability was sketchy to say the least.
Happy Birthday brother. That was another amazing and awesome gift fishing with John. And of course you had some wild and crazy going on. I'm pretty sure I don't want to know how those dudes got in the creek/river or what they were up to. I guess a normal parking spot was out of the question. I knew when dad said "It takes all kinds son " that was not a compliment. However I will be at my brother's combo 55th birthday and Halloween party on Saturday and he's requested me doing my Matt Foley motivational speaker SNL impersonation which I have the full suit for the night. And the band his daughter is the drummer for is doing live karaoke 🎤 with the band. We're doing Would instead of Man in the box....in costume! Your impromptu song was hilarious 😂 😅😂😅
great video and great fishing you guys!! look like you guys had a great time!! have a good day and week. god bless and take care. wow, there was a truck in the creek, yikes and how did they get there is a good question. happy birthday Alex!!
Do we celebrate the same day? I'm the 11th! HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥳🍻🎣 I try to celebrate fishing too. Last couple years I've gone striper fishing in the NE🎣 last year caught a 45.5" striped bass. PB for me🎣
They were playing some solid tunes 👌 lol. Hey Alex, I was just wondering if you ever use a whopper plopper 190, and have any luck catching bass on it? I know it’s primarily a Muskie bait, but I’ve read that it can attract some nice sized bass as well. I recently purchased one just because why not lol. I’m in Florida where we don’t have Muskie, so it’s either going to catch me some monsters, or become collector piece. Love your videos man, keep up the good work!
Some years ago I got on a really crazy bite with that thing. Running point to point on a highland reservoir style lake throwing on those points. Wind was ripping but we caught one on almost every point. I've never replicated that bite since.
Ive actually seen this done quite a bit up in the Carolinas. Went for vacation and I saw a big group on 4 wheelers with massive snorkels just absolutely tearing up the river bed. Didn't catch a single fish in the entire 3 hours I fished either. Beautiful scenery but I'm pretty sure they fucked up the ecosystem somehow. Everywhere else I fished I caught fish in seconds after casting.
me: "what did u do with that money yo mama gave you?" you: "What money?" me: "The money she gave you for singing lessons, cause you obviously didnt spend it on that. ." lol. love your content, have you ever fished in Georgia? I kayak bass fish on lake Sinclair and on the oconee river here in middle Georgia weekly.. was just wondering..

That man in the truck at his breaking point for sure, god speed brother. It'll get better.
It’s hard to beat a good choppo day! And that F250 blasting music in the middle of the river was wild😂
Happy Birthday Alex. My wife was in the other room while I’m watching your video. You bust out in the Pina Colada song and continue into the higher pitch. She is busting up, I am busting up. Ha ha. You bring many forms of entertainment to your fans!! Ha ha.
That thump when that fish hit at 13:56, just wow, I wanted to see you skip a bait under that truck😂
At this point, I'm convinced crazy just spawns when Alex fishes the rivers.
1000%
Happy Birthday Alex , can't wait to see both you guys in more videos together both showing me different jigs and lures that I can try in my neck of the woods.
I got so tickled at you talking about the truck in the river, great video Alex 🐟🎣🐟🎣

Every river float video you has at least one WTF moment. WTF? 😂 At least you didn’t have to call the police this time.

literally less than human, I genuinely hate "people" like that
Side bys are a plauge
You sure it's not *their* smallmouth jeep creek?
@ 😂 they sure think so! But the majority of the river is in national forest.
Sounds like the creek by Dover

Those dudes are living there best living, that’s badass 😂
Great video beautiful place I was bass fishing today and was not able to catch anything
The high notes got me 😂😂 rock on brotha !!
Happy birthday Alex may you have many more
Happy birthday, amigo! 🤙
Hope you have/had a happy birthday Alex 👊😎
Happy birthday fishing buddy 🎣🤟🏻🤟🏻👊🏻🎂
Happy Birthday Alex!
Happy (belated) birthday, ARudd!
Well… that’s one place to smoke a joint where the po po won’t walk up on ya. 😂😂😂😂
Great video nice fish
Happy Birthday bro!
Agree… A Ford in the river is strange. A Jeep or a Dodge would be normal here. Happy Birthday 🎉
should create a bloopers channel and see what you can get away with lol
Happy birthday Rudd.
Good stuff.
The views! 💪
This must have been before the hurricane rain that came through? We were at 10" in Sept. in West TN.
And the bros definitely have great taste in music!!! 🤘🤘🤘
It was before the flooding but this river was unaffected.
Happy birthday 🥳🎂
Happy birthday 🎉🎉🎉
Happy birthday!
Good one!
Love the video, but man I was kinda nervous with hooks and toes sticking out😮
I like doing dangerous things carefully
love it!
Do we celebrate the same day? I'm the 11th! HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥳🍻🎣 I try to celebrate fishing too. Last couple years I've gone striper fishing in the NE🎣 last year caught a 45.5" striped bass. PB for me🎣
Alice and chains can't go wrong with that
That sure is a pretty river.
When someone first gets a truck 😂
100% legal and sick af
Well that's different!!
They were playing some solid tunes 👌 lol.

Lol, Tweekers do some weird shit.💯😆🤷♂️
This was my first thought too. Especially when he said they wouldn’t look at him.
Happy bday
Where are you fishing at in this video. I used to catch some trout below south hoston dam (tail waters).
The fish at 22:19 looked huge.
It was 😅
Happy Birthday sir.....
I'd like to know what they were going to do when the water started flowing again!!!
Right? I told John the same thing.
@@AlexRuddFishing Hell, if you had Austin with you, he'd be yelling "FRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEBBBBIIIIIRD!"
Ever hear “Deliverance” music floating down the river?
Happy birthday
Teen spirt hits hard 😂
😂😂 tight lines
Maybe they were Moonshiners?!
is it legal to drive on a creekl bottom?! Jesus, how much pollution it causes for the creek!
Dude what whopper plopper are you throwing that sounds insane
Check out the pinned comment 👊🏻
Hey what GoPro mounts do you use!
Chesty: amzn.to/3NtVeJ6
Pole: amzn.to/40mLRD5
You were scaring me with those trebles between your legs 😬 sick video though !!!
Keeping you all on your toes.
Ive actually seen this done quite a bit up in the Carolinas. Went for vacation and I saw a big group on 4 wheelers with massive snorkels just absolutely tearing up the river bed. Didn't catch a single fish in the entire 3 hours I fished either. Beautiful scenery but I'm pretty sure they fucked up the ecosystem somehow. Everywhere else I fished I caught fish in seconds after casting.
For some reason I feel like those two dudes in the middle of the river don't know how they got there either
That tracks.
An F-250 taking a break from tailgating in the left lane long enough to recharge by ruining some creek habitat.
How did the truck get there?
They drove from somewhere but I’m not sure where. That entire area is in the middle of the woods with no roads.
I use a 90 choppy. Maybe I should move to 120
I mean if the river is as deep as a puddle it's not that weird.
me: "what did u do with that money yo mama gave you?"
you: "What money?"
me: "The money she gave you for singing lessons, cause you obviously didnt spend it on that. ." lol. love your content, have you ever fished in Georgia? I kayak bass fish on lake Sinclair and on the oconee river here in middle Georgia weekly.. was just wondering..
I’ve spent some time on the Flint and Ocmolgee down in GA
@AlexRuddFishing HECK yeah! love those Shoal bass.!! I caughtt my 1st Altahama bass today at the Oconee River...(yayyyy meeee..!!)
Watch yer six! Didn't you see what happened to that poor kid (riding his dirt bike) on 'Breaking Bad'? Oh, yeah...happy B-day!
I feel like they get a pass for playing some Alice in chains.
as long as they don't leak oil that's awesome
Or break dust, transmission fluid, break fluid, diesel, steering fluid, etc.
They still tear up the habitat.
What river?
Elk
i cringe every time i see someone put a fish between their legs with loose treble hooks 😱
You keep using that thigh clamp you gonna end up with a treble in a knee ,
I like doing dangerous things carefully
Happy Birthday Alex!
