Just run across this video and it wasn't disappointing, haven't been to Monroe lake in some years. I live along the Ohio river and could fish everyday in some lakes near to me. Great Catch !! KEEP ON FISHING
@PuddleWalkersOutdoors i don't fish it alot but ,fish the Big Blue river some and caught a 141/2 Crappie, which i target mostly,and fish the lakes at HOOSIER NATIONAL FORESTRY, But would love to fish Lemon lake in 2025
I have been fishing those same Waters my entire life. I have been a fishing guide part of my life and fished in the Ohio River and White River and various lakes and reservoirs around Indiana. I believe that's the best fishing in Indiana right there. Never know what you're going to catch and there's a lot of big ones. Before I knew there was a bowfin record, I caught some bigger than a state record. Since I started keeping track of them to get a record, the biggest one I've caught out of there was 15.8 lb
Bowfin are one of my favorites. They get a lot of hate but man are they a powerful fish. Biggest one I’ve seen caught was 10lbs and my oldest caught it one evening at Lake Lemon on a chatterbait.
@@chriscarroll3635 Yes, I believe the state record is 16-3. Last I knew. My family is from down there and part of the lake covers my granddad's old farm. My mother's twin was stillborn and buried at birth and is buried underneath the water there of the lake. Mom said the bowfin were there before the lake was over there. She said they've always been there.
@@PuddleWalkersOutdoors I will have to find some of my old pictures. I know I've got pictures of some on a string er that are from stomach down to the ground and I'm 6 ft. 2. In I have a RUclips channel called Starvin Pilgrim Outdoors , I'm going to be catfishing in a cave 2 miles up river in a canoe coming up soon. I just subscribed to your channel.
Right on. I’ve been pretty much around these areas most my life as far as living quarters. I really like the area around me but I sure don’t enjoy the snow that comes with it.
@Miles-g6b that means a lot and good luck! I’m trying the river by us this weekend and hopefully we find some fish. I’m hoping for walleye. I struggle to catch them but still chase them 😂
Ok I thought so...been fishing Indiana my whole life that's one species I haven't gotten in hand yet...found a small spring fed stream this fall with some tiny musky so got to add them to my list this year
What a joke. For anyone watching when he catches fish number two. Look very closely and pause. He is using a baitcast rod with an open face reel. Are you kidding me??? I thought i noticed that and had to pause it to see for myself. I quit watching right then. Im speechless. Wow. 😂
Great compilation. I like the messaging at the beginning and how you titled each catch. And of course, awesome catches.🙌
Thanks! It took a few years to put it together 😂 I appreciate you stopping by
Me too, love the message
I appreciate that!
Love your content man!! I am aslo from spencer !! Ive got pretty serious small mouth addiction!!! Love watching you fish areas i know !!.
Hey thank you I appreciate that! Hope to see you out there

Thanks I greatly appreciate your kind words! The Ohio is a place I would love to fish. It’s about a 4hr drive for me.

That spillway at Monroe is where I caught my biggest walleye...also a good crappie spot in the spring
Great place to catch big fish!
Good stuff brother 🤘 "The right place at the right time with the right bait"
That’s all it takes!!
Just stumbled across this video. Nice! I’m in southern Indiana. Love the scenery as well. Just subbed. Keep up the good work.
I really appreciate you subscribing and checking out my videos! Most of the videos are filmed in south central Indiana not far from you!
Nice video.
Thanks for the visit! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Some amazing fish man what a video!!!
I appreciate that, I’m glad you enjoyed it! It’s been a fun 5 years!

One pound off the Indiana state record

Amazing fish. Many were targeted heavily during bow fishings hay day around me. To find one over 3lbs is pretty amazing now.

Excellent video! Great memories 👍 Tight lines 🎣
Thanks Mike!
When you hear your buddy say, “ get over here and bring the net” you know he’s fighting a trophy fish!
Wish you could’ve seen ole Calvin burning down that bank trying to get to me 😂
Showing out them mad skills
Thank you!!
Love it!!!!!💪
Thank you!!
Fishes parents….we told you not to play in that creek lol. New sub here.
Glad to have you on board! And funny joke 😂
@ what part of Indiana you all in?
We are in Owen County. Mainly fish the surrounding counties, Monroe, Morgan, and Putnam.
@ ah cool. I lived in Wayne county and Dearborn counties for some time.
Right on. I’ve been pretty much around these areas most my life as far as living quarters. I really like the area around me but I sure don’t enjoy the snow that comes with it.
#3 is the reason I always wear baseball cleats when I creek fish. That mud is slick as ice.
I tell you what and them rubber boots make poor ice skates 😂
Slicker than snot on a brass door knob
when’s the next video?
As soon as I can get back out! Snow and ice are slowing me down a little bit. Thanks for asking though you’re the first one to ask me that!
No problem love to see new videos out i plan on going this weekend in my friends creek hopefully get on some smallmouth🤞

I could give a crap about his equipment,those are nice bass!!
I appreciate it! I’m using whatever is available!!
Where in Indiana? I AM IN FORT WAYNE
I’m in Owen County. Most of the catches are from Monroe and Owen county creeks and rivers.
@@PuddleWalkersOutdoorsmy family is all from Spencer.
Lake lemon and Monroe spill way, Indiana the two I see
@victorguzman8936 two great places
@@drakerandall4426 I'm thinking the other one is Columbus, Indiana there a part of a dam
So what species is #9 is it a bowfin
Yep that’s a bowfin! Only half the size of our state record! Could you imagine what a 16lber would look like!?!
Ok I thought so...been fishing Indiana my whole life that's one species I haven't gotten in hand yet...found a small spring fed stream this fall with some tiny musky so got to add them to my list this year
First!! 😂
Thanks Matt!! 😂

Yes proving my point even more. It doesn’t take special gear or even the “right” gear to catch big fish. Keep gate keeping 🤡
Well then you’re a snob. And you obviously didn’t listen to what he said in the intro concerning what they were using and why. Go pound sand.

That’s a nice president reel.
Who cares what he used? Are you jealous he can catch enough for a video channel and you can’t catch fish? .
