I love tournament fishing, but I can’t wait to see you pulling big flatheads out of brush piles in small water, Spencer!
Yep same man same
I love them old videos as well bro 👍 hopefully he can get on some of them this year 💯
I've been scouring google earth and scheming up some spots to hit. I'm getting excited myself.
So do all his old subscribers. That’s the whole reason I subscribed. Now he’s just another guy in a boat.
@@ryanharrod1155 I'm not sure if this is a compliment or an insult
Definitely one of the biggest hopefully see you at the rising sun tournament in September it's usually about same amount or a little bit more boats but definitely a blast.
What’s with the blurring out of the sonar/fishfinder screens??
It's fn fishing! Leave it alone
What do you mean?
Well that was a waste of time!
That doesn't seem fun. You don't appear to be having fun. I do like it, tho
I enjoy competing, but the conditions made this one tough. I'm glad you enjoyed the video though.
Sure miss you pulling that yak up to a big log jam and pulling a big flatty out of it
Me too. Hopefully I luck onto a few this spring and summer.
Love seeing the tournament fishing. But you should definitely get back to the yak fishing. Catching monsters in tiny water. Just keep doing you brother!
there is no going back to that. These things are one way
I'm looking forward to it too. I love kayaking and it's been a while since I've had the chance to tangle with a good one out of the tupperware.
Tournaments take the fun out of it a lot of times. Take er back to your roots, my friend. I here the creeks are risin.
They have their ups and downs for sure. Looking forward to hoping in my tupperware vessel.
@@RiverCertified you ever check out Justin from KayakCatfush could be KayakKatfish. The man is the king of "Tupperware Boat" fishing. Fishes the Tennessee River mostly. Lot of tournaments.
Getting back to the river certified I started out watching I fish a few tourneys here and there but my passion is stream fishin channel cats and smallies just got a kayak to go get a bit farther than I like to hike into
I can see how tournaments kinda take the fun out of it, but just as a spectator the little hit of adrenaline is exciting.
It's a grind, but I'll keep chipping away at them here and there. I'm glad you enjoy watching them.
Stormy day, no Bimini top. Perfect!! Hey, that first Flathead looked hungry for sinkers. Lol
It's funny how it works out that way lots of times. He was spared from eating sinkers haha
Do what brings you the most satisfaction...just promise to bring us along with you! 😉♥
Thank you very much. That part I can promise I'll do.
You the man I still haven't got a nice flathead yet. Buddy went with me got a nice one. I have a lot of small muddy rivers around me an I'm about to get a kayake to get away from the beatin path
The kayak will definitely help. I'm cheering for ya dude.
Always love when you upload a new video bro 😎 and your content is always great keep up the awesome work and keep slaying em man
I really appreciate that man. Hope you're catchin' em.
I am itching to get out on my kayak too! Fishing from a boat on big water just isn't the same, somehow I feel much closer to nature in a kayak, just need the water to warm up a little bit here in Missouri.
Couldn't agree more. I got out on a little creek the other day and had a lot of fun.
Life is too short. Go and do what makes you happy and relax. Fishing is meant to be enjoyed. Not stressful and tension running high, like tournaments seem to bring.
I wish you all the best in whatever you are doing.
Cubby
I enjoy the competition. My balance with it is a little off I guess. I appreciate it sir.
@@RiverCertified I totally understand
Personally I enjoy the lower stress levels of non-tournament fishing. Regardless, I'll be watching. Your content is always top shelf. Thanks man.
And I appreciate that immensely. I'm always trying different stuff. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't haha.
Every video you post I comment; here kittie kittie kittie 😅
Well no one can site ya for not paying your dues. Always enjoy. Thanks Spencer.
Honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way. I appreciate ya man.
Hey Spencer ….. enjoyed the video …. Definitely can’t wait for your kayak videos.
It’s May 9th at 6:15pm …. I’m headed out to see if I can catch a a 35” plus channel cat to beat my last PB.
Last one was 33 inches but he was a fatty. State channel record is 29 pounds. I called the state DEP and they have no certified scales in my area. However, the guy I spoke to told me to send me a pic if I catch one in that range.
As always,
Dan
22 you so much for sharing these fabulous fishing videos. I really can say that I have learned alot from watching. Dude you're quite the guy. However, I' must say in my opinion that it's mighty concerning watching you fish while it's thunderstorms out. Please be very careful and stay safe. God bless you and yours.
And I'm glad you enjoy them. We would have took cover, but the lightning was short lived enough where it would have been past us by the time we reeled everything in. Thankfully it all worked out. I appreciate the concern.
The content isn’t the same I like the small water kayak fishing
I’m sure a lot of people say this but I would love to come on the boat and go fishing with you one day! Keep catchin 👍
Love watching the videos, but yes I miss the small river stuff big time.. I would love to see a lot of kayaking and camping with you and Ryan and where did Denny go? I've been wearing out your old videos because they are more relatable..
Same here man. I think Denny pretty much quit fishing to focus on some other stuff. Haven't talked to him in a long time to be honest.
I'm with ya Spencer, nothin better than not having to catch and no time limit for less $$$ 👍👍
I'm gonna fish a few tournaments this summer, but I'm gonna do a whole lot more fun fishing for sure. Focus more on having fun than catching fish.
It would be awesome to fish with you someday
I like watching your creek fishing with your yak also, still great footage of your tournaments. Awesome videos bud💪💪💪👍👍👍
I'm glad you enjoy them both man. I'm looking forward to getting back in the tupperware haha.
Great Video. As long as you chasing them whisker fish or ones with stripes. We are with ya
And I appreciate the hell outta that
I’m looking forward to you exploring too. These tournaments aren’t working out. LMAO. Jk. Always fun to see you in your element. Your outro is hilarious. Just keep doing you, it’s awesome.
I've been fortunate to have a few top 10 tens and a top 5, but have definitely had some bombs. I've learned a ton though, and that's what I wanted out of it.
Bro that was one hell of a try and I like all your videos. But when you get down to the nitty gritty there's a special place in my heart for big flat heads in a kayak
That's good to hear man. I enjoy doing all of that stuff, so I think I'm gonna try to do it all. Hopefully I have time haha
Hey man never give up . Persistence always pays off. Totally enjoyed video.💯💯👍👍
I'm persistent if I'm nothing else. Glad you enjoyed the video man.
Hey Spencer. Better luck next time. And all you can do is try your best. And you for one, always do that. Back when I was younger and fished carp and catfish tournaments myself, there was ALWAYS alot of luck that went into winning them. You'll win your share, I'm sure of it.👍🏻Always appreciate your videos bud.
The only thing I'm in complete control over is my effort and I try to keep that at the front of my mind. I'll keep chipping away at em. Thanks man.
@@RiverCertified That's about the best a person can do. As long as a person puts forth good effort into something it usually always pays off. For sure
Bud fishing competitively is extremely taxing and tough, you'll be going up against fellas that's been covering these waters for decades and that makes it tough along with the unpredictable weather. I say do what you like best but still fish a few tournaments each year. Also, I am a firm believer that Skip and Wood need to be in the boat on tourney day! When those fellas are in the boat you do some of your best fishing! Keep it up, win or lose we'll be here waiting on each vid you post man.
That's what I'm gonna shoot for I think. Skip definitely would have been in the boat if the wind wouldn't have been blowing like it was. I think you're right though. He brings a little bit of luck with him. I appreciate all of that a ton man!
Entry fee 20.00$ boat repair $150.00 you're correct the prefish hammers the fish,they aren't hungry, thanks for the trip Spencer, now have some fun and no stress fishing
Yessir. I've been having a bunch of fun walking up and down creek banks chasing channel cats.
Whatever you do I look forward to it brother. 👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾🙂💯
And that means a ton man. You're the man!
Well out of all those boats, I sure hope you fellars got into some money, at least show ( win, place, show, you know) , that’s pony racing talk, that’s seems fitting there. Haha! Ain’t no way of Jerry rigging that Bimini top up? Shoot I believe I’d be trying to finger it out somehow, lol, know what I mean Vern? Haha!
Well that says it. If you take the fun out, what's left. Just fishing with no expectations is the best kind. Have some fun with it. But always, stay safe.
I'm definitely gonna go have some fun. Thank you kindly. I appreciate all the kind words and support.
Appreciate the consistency of uploads. Nice to unwind after work by watching a video 👍
You bet man. Glad you enjoy em.
That tournament fishing can be tough. Great video Spencer keepem coming
It definitely will push a guy, especially the lack of sleep. Thanks for watching.
I like how he say little flat head and proceed to net a fish bigger then anything I have ever pulled out of the water 🤣🤣🤣
It's funny how a nice flathead like that doesn't feel so special when other dudes are catching 40s and 50s haha
You’re as real as it gets man! You’re a great teacher. I’ve seen a lot of your videos for some years now. This is the first one where I’ve heard you swear lol. That’s my go to catch phrase when it’s not going my way 😬. Any adventure is always fun so bring it on! Also Sam and Ryan are an awesome addition… anyway thanks for the fun.
You should get rid of that stupid hat though
I do my best to not do anything more than be myself and share what I'm thinking. I'll have some fun adventures coming up. Go Cubbies!
Glad to hear your heading back to your roots, looking forward to a kayak camping trip with your boys ryan and sam
I got my new PB this morning. 36lb Flathead on the Raccoon River with live bullhead. The tree shaker is from Troy on Swamp People.
Thank you most people won’t apologize for cussing-That’s why I don’t watch those fishing shows anymore
There are a lot of good catfishermen out there just most of them can't afford to do it for a living yet alone in a 60,000 dollar boat. Those seaark easy cat's though sure look purdy 🤤 one day maybe!
How does a catfish tournament not include any NIGHT TIME... seems strange
Better Luck next time !
It seems to me pre fishing for a tournament uses up
all your chances for catching big fish .
Like you can`t catch big ones every time out .
And thats why river fishing is better get back on your kayak Spencer its way more fun than hauling a boat spending tons of money in has and gear just a couple of rods and tons of fish! Love ya bro
Good evening Spence and everyone else
Good evening
Awesome video man 🎣🎣🎣🎣
Thanks man!
If you want to get back to your roots just go catch some drum buds with Josh jk he's an awesome dude and inspired me to mushroom hunt
i have a catfish tournament myself not this weekend but next weekend. 10k to win at a local lake we fish it every year.
Have never tournament fished. Hope to someday until then I am undefeated in tournaments. Go do what you enjoy. Love your content.
Yes!! Bring on the flattys in the yak! Cant wait. Tis the season lol
Out of curiosity, why is the Fish finder Pixilated out? I cannot think of a reason.
Really don't hope u have a discount code for the net u use watch all the time bought the same net didn't realize u used the same
I really like his videos! I laugh a lot because he sounds like butt head!!!!!😁
Thats why they call it fishing and not catching. Better luck next time.
Man sucks y'all lost the tournament. New waters?
Good stuff guys!
Glad you enjoyed it man!
what brand of rods are you using I would like to buy some Thanks
Spencer, you need to show how to catch flatheads from a kayak.
good job like watching alll . like the camp outs u do just haveing fun thats what i do
Can’t wait to see you doing the kayak/creek fishing thing, pulling up on a logjam and pulling out Ol Mr. Flathead!
This is Decatur Alabama I witnessed some monster
Lets go my guyyyyy
Yesssiiirrrrrr
I've enjoyed watching most of your videos; but you have been looking more haggard with each video.. I hope you are able to get some rest as you get back to basics, and I look forward to seeing the next adventure. "I hope you catch a giant!"
I took a few days and slept in. It was a nice recharge. I appreciate the thoughtfullness man.
Who makes those kewl green rods love um .Awesome video
Nobody understands the clumsiness felling when you go from crocs and tacky shorts to bibs and boots in one day. 😂
one year , a few years back the sea ark,,,became the ''sink arcs'''' at the winter blues, when the idiot tournament director released everyone in white squall hellish conditions , no one should have been fishing in , but they are still good boats.
I bet it was an insurance nightmare. Glad no one was seriously injured, at least from what I remember.
Awesome video. Love catfishing in the cold. And awesome boat. Quick question is what are the long black things hanging on the lines? Special weights?
Thanks man. They're dragging weights.
Let's do this brother keep the faith!!!!!
I appreciate it Brian!
Me and my buddy Mel had many trips to wappapelo lake in Mo. and caught many catfish. Sadly he can't fish anymore, he's got diabetes so bad that he can't even get in and out of the boat. It's sad to see a man come to that reality.
I couldn't agree more. My grandpa always said it's hell getting old.
Yo Spencer come up to Michigan sometime and give the grand River a try I’d show you spots
I appreciate the invitation man!
Have you ever fished Pickwick?
Why u blipping out ur fish finder?
Enjoyed the video. Was the Bimini top a seaark top and did u do something wrong to get it to break or just too rough and it should not be up under rough conditions. I am going to get a protege soon
Glad ya enjoyed it. Nothing wrong with the bimini design, it was just super rough the first few miles from the ramp. Every single boat in the tournament had stuff break. I was able to repair it.
You guys are not in the top 200. You made a very dumb video of dumb fisherman
We're definitely in the top 200. There were only 180 teams. Devil's in the details😂
I enjoy your videos better when you aren't in a tournament. You seem more relaxed, happier, and of course you get to bring Skip! Love your channel and I hope YOU catch a GIANT!
Love the videos. I swear I haven’t found one where you’re not eating in the mic 🤣
Haha I get hungry a lot
Wow Spencer. Damn it 🤯. Use your words Spencer hahahaha. You are the most chilled, no swearing, which I appreciate. But sometimes you just need to let those words out 👍. Another exciting video.
I love the tournament videos
I almost commented on your last video that I miss kayak Spencer and camp catch and cooks. Been following you since about day one and miss the old ways a little. Great work though still here and following.
Why u bluring th fish finder
I really appreciate all the time and energy you put in filming your adventures. It cannot be easy, you seem to have the perfect fisherman temperament and it makes your videos a joy to watch, even when you aren't slaying the fish.
Whats the bag in the water for
What reels are you using
I know you are into protein bars. Have you had the Gatorade ones yet??
Yep. I dig 'em.
Them tournaments can really be a kick in the nuts to your confidence as a fisherman. It seems we always do the worst when when our confidence is highest. My best tournaments are when I can just mentally treat it like any old day out on the water fishing for fun. The tournament mindset speeds a lot of people up mentally and makes them rush. You're a great fisherman, most the guys I fish with learned everything they know from your videos. Keep your head up player, you'll have your day in the sun.
Yep, my bimini did that on the first rough water ride. I replaced every rivet once I realized they used aluminum rivets... damn shame cause that setup is strong otherwise.
I'll have her sturdy as a rock with those new rivots.
Why is the unit blinded out
Do what makes you most happy man and don’t stress it. Love watching your videos before going to bed waking up at 4:30 to do the 4:00 to 2:00 everyday, one of my highlights for sure.
Best budget polarized Sunglasses??.????
Definately Waterlands dude. My promo code saves ya 15 percent too. RC15
Nice fishing
U do u, we got ur back 😅❤
Great video like always Spencer. Yes, tournament time does fly by.
Tournaments or not this one of the best fresh water fishing channels out there! Im going to watch regardless! I hope you catch a giant spencer and ill be here to watch it!! Hit that like button folks!
👍👍👍👍👍still a great 🎣video just a tuff day. Be watching for the next one.
Great job Brother!!
