    Dude, these are huge on the information, for those of us just starting tournaments but have fished our entire life is to me a huge benefit. I think it helps where ever your at . I fish in Arizona and all this info helps me big time, if not just the alternate techniques. Love each and every post, I look forward to watching them as soon as I see the alert. Great job. I hope and strive to be able to do something like this and sustain myself. And this is a push for me to continue on the journey.

    I really like where you're going with this. You've became my favorite to watch because I am also a competitive tournament fisherman. Gets boring watching those other guys doing the same fun fishing every time. Watching tournaments is so much more entertaining.

    Fantastic video. Agree with you 100% . on the tournament fishing coverage . Tornament recaps are very informative for info on baits , techniques, and bodies of water. Joe Holland Fishing does a great job on giving an inside look at the FLW tour. You covered a lot river fishing tips . Again fantastic video. Your sliding into your new profession nicely , brother . Keep it coming.

    I've been digging your videos man. There aren't very many river videos out that are helpful so thanks for this one. I live on the Arkansas River and fish it at least twice a week. Everything you said is spot on. Going to check out those trailers for that black/blue swimjig you showed us.

    Great video and excellent content. Over the past 10 years I've had to move from the Lake Mead area (crystal clear water) to fishing the Mississippi in same pool you showed. Many anglers won't discuss some of the tips shown here so it's great to see someone helping new river guys out. It took my partner and I two years of fishing to figure out much of what is discussed here. I'd add that finding clear water is very important as well, but otherwise a great video that covered a ton of real data. Thanks!

    A lot of good info in this man.. one thing I can tell you nailed was the lightest weight possible in the current, and not pegging texas rig. RIGHT ON! Im on Chickamauga and cant tell you how much that bait to weight separation matters along with the fall, I need to make a video about this on my channel.

  • @ryanpellegrini1023
    @ryanpellegrini1023 7 лет назад

    Here in Connecticut. The CT river is one of the main spots to fish. Its a big fast moving River that spans the whole state, and is filled with small mouth. walleye, largemouth, different species of cats. Just filled with fish life. My go too's for faster current tend to be a chatter, or spinnerbait in a white. white/chart, or shad color. and in calmer areas were i can work a top water a walking bait or whopper plop are amazing. If the bite is really tough and i just need to get some numbers my secret weapon is a Chartreuse or white Rooster tail. Any how, great video man. Thanks for sharing with us

    Milliken!, do you have any problems getting your kastking stealth's tuned properly? I've been tossing mine with different size lures and messing with brakes and tension, but still having issues with backlash, any tips would be great. Awesome river system breakdown I'll apply some of that to my kayak fishing!

    Great vid dude! Been learning a river by me lately and doing tournies on it as well. My only problem is it does not have alot of current. even with the locks and barges going all day, it just doesnt seem to have good current unless it rains and floods. Any tips for what to try to help find them with minimal current? when it floods and the river gets rolling they are on fire on points but the same points are dead with no current.
