    Really appreciate tips you give. I'd be so grateful for one the size you guys wouldn't even call it more than bait. I've never caught anything in California water anywhere as nice as the ones you toss back. It's so nice to do a trip with you. I stay warm and comfortable and still get the joy of the catch. Thank you for your kindness in helping us come along. Stay safe.

    Always loved catfishing in the winter here in Arkansas, especially with so few other cat anglers out and about. Down size my baits some as well but do have to throw one supersized. Have noticed the bites are slightly less aggressive in colder water, too. Age and life are keeping me behind on vids here, Spencer, but still following your journey. Good luck, and keep soakin’ those baits, my friend.

    I think my back started hurting for you when I saw that fish come up. Then you said it made your back stiffen up. LOL! Thanks for the tips. I am a newby so I have only fished with worms and chicken. I see what you mean - big baits can give you big fish. WOW! Next time I will try cut bait and see if I get lucky. Keep the videos coming. Thank you - it was a fun trip with you.

    • @RiverCertified

    Thank you for the boat tips at the start there. My dad gave his old boat about a year ago and im still learning stuff about it. I was afraid to take it out during winter because of that water expansion.

    • @RiverCertified
      @RiverCertified  11 дней назад +1

      You bet. Just make sure you trim it all the way down and all the water runs out. Don't let it sit without a full tank of gas and even better make sure you run seafoam or stabil through it. If you live up north, it's a good idea to rewinterize it too.

    Thanks for another one Spencer. Please try bumping for Walters... Been watching you, Josh, and Murray for years catch those Walters, tried a scaled down version of a bumping rig and it's been the best winter fishing in years. Just like your threadfins bottom rigs but with a 6"-8" dropper for weight and a 3-4' 15lb leader, bead, and #2 hook. Even works well with Berkeley ripple shads... Please try!!! Thanks

    Hey Spencer ….. I noticed ( I think ) your baits are above the hook(s). I learned from you to use sinker sliders so I can let more line out if I do not get a bite. What determines whether you use a sinker slider ( bait below the sinker ) or using baits above the sinker?

    Sucks when waking up at 6am and freezing while hiking through the sloppy mud to the river bank and coming back with nothing the last few times. I'm ready for spring..It's forecast to snow here in South Alabama this week and be in the 20's just about every night. The north can have its weather back anytime.🧊

      Winter fishing can be tough man. I agree, this weather can go back to where it belongs.
