What's going on y'all we are down here at one of my favorite places
in the world and that would be the river. I'm down here in my kayak
and we've already had a very interesting day.
I was trying to go to this other spot that's way deeper it was full of cars
didn't even have anywhere to park so I decided not to go there.
Came to this spot and then there's a family down here swimming and their dog
decided it was going to jump in my kayak. It's just been interesting
but we're down here and we're going to see if we can't get on some fish. The
water is super super low so I'm kind of a little bit worried.
In the springtime that's a good thing but in the summertime that can be
difficult because the bass move out to the deeper water and
if the water's low all this stuff is just really shallow so
there's probably some fish in here. I don't think they're very big but the
farther I paddle up the deeper it's going to get.
I just don't know how much time I have and how long it's going to take for me
to get up river so we're just going to kind of have to
mess around see what happens. I've got two crankbaits tied on and a big worm
tied on. I don't know what the heck the fish are
going to bite today but we're about to see if we can figure something out.
Y'all stay tuned hopefully we get us a big one. I'm going to start off throwing
this right here. This is the bouncer my mock baits. I've got a deep
diving crankbait tied on. No way I'm throwing that in this section
but I was planning to fish the other section.
We're just going to have to see what the fish want in here. Also got a couple
other baits tied up so let's just see what they want.
So I just saw my first decent sized bass. This water is really really low
and with my Redfin glasses I can see everything. I mean the water's clear
there is a glare but with these it removes the glare and I can see
everything. I've been looking around I've seen a
bowfin I've seen a catfish and I've seen one bass that was like a pound
then I saw some like six inch bass so I think I just got to keep on moving up. I
know there's a bridge up here and it is loaded with fish it's just a
long paddle and I'm going upstream so it's easy coming back
hard going up and the wind is not in my favor today so
I guess I'm just going to keep working my way up if I find a deeper hole
we'll stop there and fish but for right now it looks like we're heading towards
that bridge we're gonna see if we get it done up
there. We're gonna try throwing this bouncer right here on this shade line
it's a hard shade line it looks good not super deep but it could hold fish
especially smaller ones so we're gonna give it a shot.
I was messing around I ended up catching one I knew I should have caught on the
camera I threw on this tree right here with a
crazy caught me a little one he's not big
but on the rage crawl on a Texas rig see I got a feeling that if I downsize I
can probably catch some smaller ones and all this stuff that they're gonna
all be that size and when I come to the river I want to catch
some good two three four pounders because they just fight so good in here
and it's so rewarding to just get on a big fish in such a small body of
water let's see if there's another one up
there might be I don't know that guy right there
he picked it up started running with it big time
another one's got it that gummit another one small ones that's what it is
they're small let's see if we're on a pattern got
another tree right here I'll throw the rage crawl up there and
see if there's any in there I'm betting there will be a
small one right here well that didn't play into the pattern
that's for sure we've got a deeper section right here
I'm gonna start off by throwing the crankbait and then we'll throw the crawl
around some I still want to get up there to that
bridge but there could definitely be some fish in here
it's deep enough for sure there's a three-pounder sitting next to the
boat he might eat it dude no way dude are you
kidding me are you kidding me what in the world
he didn't eat it all the way I still see him
where'd you go there was literally a three-pounder
like following my kayak like I could see him
oh and he ate one of the pinchers off my rage crawl
and he just bit my big worm the rage anaconda
he just won't eat it all the way but it's a good one and he's just swimming
around acting stupid
what in the heck what in the heck now I don't know if that was him or a
different fish but one just missed it again
we're putting back on another rage crawl because it's a little bit easier for
them to get in their mouth oh man that's crazy
I mean I've had three four bites right here
one of them was at least a three because I could see him
I could see him trying to eat it and then I think he ate the big worm
just didn't eat all the way and then I had another bite
on the big worm there's a bite on the rage crawl
actually might have been raw no oh I don't know if it's got it it's
got it yeah I won't trip it I knew it was a bite
baby but yeah there's some fish in this area
I've only got one pack of this color crawl
honestly I don't think color matters because they bit a junebug worm
and they're biting a plum crawl so I think they're just hungry I think
there's a good bit of fish right here
he ate it when I was reeling it in he ain't big but
hey that's another fish I started reeling it in because I was about to
just move spots he ate it when I was reeling it in
I'm still going to move spots but it's pretty cool
I'm just going to go up a little bit farther
so a lot of people ask like what I'm targeting and like
what I'm doing and stuff like that and I could definitely do a better job
explaining that half the time but like in a situation like right now
oh that was a bluegill or a warmouth or something
in a situation like right now I don't even know what I'm targeting
I'm just targeting wood and deep water I guess
kind of just like anything that looks good and has some decent depth to it
that's what I'm targeting
that was sick that was sick there is a trash mat right here
I punched through it with my bait and I didn't get any bites and as soon as I
pulled it over the log the bait was on top of the water
he came out from under the trash mat and blew up on it like a top water
he ain't a giant but hey at least we're getting some fish in the boat I mean
I'll take that all day long that was cool
that was epic that was a lot of fun broth
that's rough right there I can see the bridge
it is right there we're so close well that definitely did not go as
planned I've been anticipating that we'd catch
them on that bridge all day guess what happens go down to the
bridge don't even get a bite so I guess I'm gonna keep going up a
little bit more see if it gets any deeper
um if not we're just gonna work our way back down and see if we can get any more
to bite down but man I was really hoping that bridge
would be on I mean I've caught like 10-15 fish under there before
the only thing that was under that bridge was carp and there was about 500
of them so if I ever want to go carp fishing
that's the place to do it I'll tell you that right now
there's some big suckers under there too they're like this daggum big
they're big
no I was gonna see if you weren't doing anything you come pick me in my kayak up
but I can paddle all the way back because I'll be paddling downstream
but yeah but if you're busy then you don't
have to I mean you don't have to leave right now anyways I'm not even there
yet all right midday update I've paddled
far like really far farther than I have ever
paddled from that ramp before and I've been going upstream the whole time
there's actually another ramp upstream that's like not that far from me
I just called Caleb and I was like yo can you like come pick me up
and he was like yeah I can probably come get you so he might pick me up so I don't
have to paddle all the way back and then he'll just take me by my truck and I'll
grab my truck because I'm far that ramp to that ramp
for like a 10 to 15 minute drive by car
for a thousand dollars Alex what caused that flood
mosquitoes today was his last day
hey did y'all catch anything yeah I caught a couple he went
I was getting ready to say because I don't seem like a whole lot of things I
didn't talk about oh yeah you gotta go on down a little
right now
