Went lake sturgeon fishing. The guide used lots of night crawlers on a big circle hook. Like 5 crawlers on each hook. Worked great. Try it.
Just one will work. As long you in the right spot. Caught 62 pounder with one worm
I remember an article in Catfish Insider ( over 20 years ago 🙄) where said he used a big circle hook with as many night crawlers as he could fit on the hook for giant catfish. His philosophy was that the bluegills would nip at the night crawlers which would then attract the catfish.
@@user-wk9wq8yq5uHmm. You’d think if the large fish were attracted to the bluegill, they would then eat the bluegill and not the worm. I’ve never caught anything over 8lbs on night crawlers. However, with live bluegill and cut bluegill, I took my personal best catfish from 8, to 23lbs. I caught nearly a dozen 10-20 pounders that year too.
We use one night crawler and one-half slice of bacon on a circle hook. Rarely fails and the bacon is like candy to a fat kid.
@@Eke817 No, I catch all sorts of fish, and I can catch them reliably. Not to say that a night crawler isn’t a good bait. But it’s not as good of a bait for LARGE fish like large flathead or large blues.
Blues are good on cut bait, and flathead live bait. Generally speaking from my experience, and the experience of most people I’ve seen.
I'm sure that blue gill is glad it was colorful and cool looking. Live to see another day
Long ear sunfish
I felt the same way. I was like dude let him go, and the fish was like dude seriously you could make a wish right now! Very magical area. I would love to fish all day there.
@@DelightfulGlassblower-sn1xkpumpkin seed
@@jonahtaylor9338 def not. definetly a longear. you can quite clearly see the extended "earflap" that pumpkins dont have.
Bait
I'm loving this new series, "the hunt for the river monsters".
Dude, that was one of the sickest fishing spots ever. Places like that are something out of my dreams. An old unused dam that's just been left to nature with all kinds of rockpiles and jams and structure and such. You have to go back there.
I wait for this moment all week!!💪💪
I love the honesty and videography on this channel. The fact it’s not edited to catch after catch is authentic!
❤ 100 percent agree!
Your last sturgeon video inspired me to get out for em on my local river. Landed a 6 foot white sturgeon from shore. Don't stop the search, it'll be so worth it when you get one. Cheers brother 🍻
Another great day of fishing with multiple species of fish not a a waste of a trip at all! Thanks for taking us along Nick! Have a fun and safe weekend and take care Nick! See you next adventure!
Big fish is music to the ears and makes the 2 plus hour drives worth it
I like how after every fish you say, “see ya later buddy.” Shows such a great appreciation and respect for the fish. You are truly what being a fisherman and conversationalist is about! Keep up the great content brother!
Great adventure Nick! Cool to see your fishing spots in the midwest. Love the filming, especially the drone footage. Keep them coming.
As always amazing work with the camera....use primarily worm even for large sturgeon....every big one I've ever caught was on worm....set sinker close to your hook cause sturgeon feed on the very bottom even more bottom than cats lol
I’m old school with boats when it comes to fishing. I’m impressed with the amount of gear you can get on that kayak and the spots you can access especially dealing with spillways. A traditional flat bottom boat or skiff would be dicey in those currents. Loved this video!
Go Nick go. Make 2024 the year you catch all your new PB's and Bucket list fish. Love your channel bro.
Determines whether live bait gets used based on coolness - my type of fisherman
Always enjoy every episode!
Hey Nick, have you ever taken a subscriber with you on a fishing adventure? If not, I would love to join you!
Best season ever and it just started. Fish On, Brother!
Love the content! Need more! He deserves so many more subs. Compared to the trash on RUclips! He's in another universe! ❤😂
Best community on the interwebs.
Would you ever make a video about how you film/ fishing kayak setup for traveling with cameras?
Best fishing RUclips channel🔥
Man, what a great looking area. Too bad it was so far away. Scary looking current for the kayak. On top of that rain all day. As always, so fun to tag along.
Hell Yeah!!! Get Fired Up!!!! It's fishing time!!!
Beautiful little fish, I'm glad you released it.
Always a pleasure watching your videos
Nick is living my best life. Awesome!
Such a cool spot with plenty of different fish species. Nice find.
Stay close to your rods Nick , the one that got away!. Awesome spot . You’ll get the monster next time . Great video 👍
Thanks for always taking us on your fishing adventures 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
618! Thanks for the clean and chill content!
Dreamy fishing spot.
I just wanted to let you know that I like the songs that you put on your videos. I don't know what it is, but they are on point.
SICK Episode Nick! ... .. 🤙👍
Awesome catches, Nick! This was a good way to wind down this eventful Thursday! Waiting on the triple digit catch!!!!
Nick, chase your dreams. Fun time! Thanks for taking me fishing!
Cant wait until you fish this spot again! 😊
Great video nick! Keep up the great work
That's a nice looking spot with some nice fish!
The wiki page shows the lake sturgeon as wanting different bait. That might help getting one to bite. Those catfish you caught were nice.
Great fish again !!! Perfect shots 👍
Please let us know which river you are on.
I enjoy your videos and it has motivated me to get out for catfish.
Well I got out last evening on my local river, the Susquehanna.
Stiff wind and choppy water ahead of a rain storm but I pulled a Channel Cat out the size that I like for the table.
Cooked it up for my wife and she said "get me some more".
Music to my ears.
You want to catch monster sturgeon?? Come to Oregon and fish the Columbia river below Bonneville dam.we have some of the biggest around,my personal best from a boat is 12 ft.and from the bank was 8.6ft!! True river monsters🤘💪
Despite the rain what a great day.
I’ve been fishing for lake sturgeon. Used a lot of big nightcrawlers on a circle hook. We never had to wait long for bites. Also here’s a tip that could be useful, while a catfish will but a real bend in the rod, the sturgeon bites were always very subtle and gentle. Even a 35lbs fish would gently tap the line so I had to hold my finger on the line so I wouldn’t miss a bite
What a great adventure! That looks like a spot I'd target more for sure. looks like a place big fish would be with the current right up against some slack water, and some deep water.
Think I would have to sit down and cry with joy if I found a place like that to fish.
One day you need to make a trip to Selkirk Manitoba for Channel Catfish.
Awesome video, Nick! Thanks!
The biggest flathead I've ever caught was on a shad side. 63 lbs. I've also caught several 1-5 pounders on nightcrawlers. I've never, ever, caught a flathead when I target them. It's always on accident 🤷🏻♂️
Awesome as always be waiting on the next one ! Caught 3 over 4 lb large mouth bass in last couple of weeks and a bunch of small stuff finally getting warm here in upstate n y
Coolest spot I have seen you fish....maybe just plain coolest river spot ever. Can imagine how many different species you can catch there, and how pretty it is on a sunny day! Nice work as usual.
I love the way you release your fish really cool thank you
Thanks for always putting out great content! My boys and I love watching.
The Okuma battle cat is one of my absolute favorite rods! From cats to grouper it’s fantastic!
It's refreshing to see someone else keeping it real... Slipping on the rocks, snagging on underwater obstacles, and just plain not getting the hits you want to.
There's a reason it's called "Fishing" after all.
Great catch! Also, could you make another video about Muskie fishing (maybe from your kayak)? I love your content keep it up
8:38 when the music starts… you just wait and expect greatness 👀
Enjoy these adventures you take us on, your passion for this is obvious and makes it that much more enjoyable !
That sunfish you threw back was a pumpkinseed dynamite bait for flatheads
Nice little pumpkin seed that colorful sunfish awesome colorings
Pretty little pumpkinseed. They're VERY common in Upstate New York.
Missouri's clear waters produce some absolutely beautiful sunfish epically pumpkin seed. It's a bit of a drive from the 618 but I totally recommend you make your way to the gasganade. I think you'd be amazed by the fish there
Hey Nick have a great day and l like watching your channel and hope you catch that fish and god bless you
That river looks beautiful. I would loved to have fished it with you! Nice catfish and mean mouth! I wonder if there are any smallmouth in all that current too?!
Awesome spot Nick! After this water goes back down it’ll be a good place to try again, kinda like the river resetting itself 🙌
5:35 is a longear sunfish! My favorite sunfish!
I drive right by that dam all the time. Good fishing in those parts
You want some flatheads I can bet you'll find some right up near the damn or by that structure like the wood sticking up with a live gill. They are probably holed up right against the damn in washout holes and little nooks and crannies all over. Gotta be some monsters there! Sturgeon are hard to target but hope you get one next time. I caught mine on nightcrawlers by accident more than when I targeted them with other things. Big ol big ball of em worked!
I like the 618 videos because he is proud and grateful for every fish he catches great and small .
Go fishing at that spot again, please. And at that powerplant spot from a few weeks back
They looked like cat fish bud!
This place looks amazing
I think that one beautiful fish was called a Dollar Sunfish. What an incredible looking species
How are you awesome beautiful people doing today??
Serene❤
Terrible
@@Thelastviking95 that sucks it's not because you're the last Viking are you? That's awesome name by the way. What's up what's going on?
@@vapormissile outstanding glad to hear it!
Sore throat, but otherwise good 👍
I would like to have you mention what river systems or resivoir spillways you are fishing.
Though I don't fish central Illinois since I live by the Chain O Lakes in Northern IL - I would still like to know if any of the central Illinois systems or MO systems are actually worth checking out.
Omg I love that location Nick!! You definitely need to come back to that spot! There's definitely some monsters in there!! 😃❤️🙏
So the cool brim is called a pumpkin seed. Might need to try a surf fishing trick... boat your bait way out from shore
Awesome Blue 👌
Those Blue Catfish look like a really hard fighting fish. Just got back from Thailand where I had Amazon Red Tail Cats to 50lb, proper fighters that give you a tough work out! Also saw an Aussie guy called Dennis fight and successfully land a 130lb Giant Mekong Cat, he uses a special harness as he only has one arm and I had to watch in admiration as he managed to get in the net a species that destroyed me later in the day
crawler ball for sturgeon for sure is the top bait..
Awesome day !!! Great place !
Last two spillways been the best ever since iv started watching u I’d get a 5 gallon bucket and get a bunch of thoes green ear and all live baits and on very big 2x hook full skip jack big baits big fish brother
Go to Praire du sac dam in Wisconsin. You can catch like 20 an hour there if you go to the right spot.
You always have great music in your videos. Keep up the great stuff!
It was good to see the ARCH again. TY Nick.
That park can see brim that you threw back was the best bet you had all day
My fishing trip got ruined today by 30 mph winds so this will have to do lol.
Even though you didn't get a sturgeon that is a pretty cool spot and some cool fish you caught. I just took my new kayak out fishing for the first time yesterday and caught a bunch of crappie. I'm loving it so far.
That's a really good area to catch lake Sturgeon. There are some places that are better than up at the lock and dam
I've had good luck with perch heads with the guts still in tact or just a big ball of night crawlers. Lake sturgeon give you a hell of a rush.
that was a wonderful adventure. One of the the best
You are really great. I really enjoy watching your videos. My friend wishes you lots of health and success
You’re awesome. You kept my attention the whole time. Very cool. Keep it up
Good day fishing 👍
Thank you for your time and effort.i got fish the river this week and 😂it wore me out.great job on your videos
That place was like a perfect evosystem. All those fish were in absolutely pristine condition! ✌️
I would've gone for the sandbar instead of that rocky shore. It has more options on where to cast and you can have one rod on either side of it.
Love the catfishing videos, keep em coming
Parabéns pelo Canal Jake.🐟🇧🇷
