    My brother and I fished the Kankakee east of Momence a few years back. We launched at the old River Isle ramp. When we wear getting ready to leave I noticed that someone cut the trailer wiring harness. Luckily, I was able to splice it back together. Some people are just total passive aggressive jerks.

    Thanks for sharing your river adventure. Your co angler Nate excelled at Species for the day. You handled the bank “Karen” very maturely, good for you.

    Blown tires and crazy locals. I love that your buddy in the kayak went right over there after he bounced. You were plenty far away. That was an impressive gar, snagged or not.

      They must be friends because I saw him load his kayak into that guy's truck. He didn't say anything to us but I understand if he took the other guy's side. Gotta prioritize IRL relationships over a "youtuber" you've met like 3 times. Thanks for watching, man!

    Some shore fishermen genuinely get annoyed the second a boat appears in an observable distance, lol.

    I'm really curious about those huge schools of fish you see. I remember them from last year. Have you ever tried fishing this place in late October? I'm guessing you would smash them. My other thought is - would the water be clear enough for an underwater camera? It would be really interesting to drift through the school with the camera. It seems all the fish in the river are stacked there and you might find some fish that really surprise you. My third thought is - I've noticed that a nightcrawler works really good until the water temps get low (say 40F or below). After that I struggle to catch anything on them for some reason. Minnows still work but worms can sit there all day and not get touched. Nice gar, that was a stud!

      The big schools are mostly channel cats, followed by Silver carp, and I assume Buffalo and Drum. I did drop an underwater camera down on a trip that didn't get uploaded. The visibility was only about 6" when I brought the camera, so I couldn't see the whole school, but it was enough to bump into a ton of channel cats. Also, I've seen other videos from a connected river close to this one where people drop down gopros. Their results were channel cats > buffalo > silver carp > drum, all mixed together.
      From what I've seen, this spot peaks in early November. One of these years I'll go then. Thanks for watching, man!

    There is a certain small percentage of anglers that hate UA-camrs. If you run into one of those people there is no reasoning with them. Their mind is made up and their only goal is to ruin your day. I think you handled it as well as you could've. Do they make bullet proof life jackets?

    You were plenty far from that guy. 25 yards is the unspoken rule.

    I usually have issues with home owners who have fits because they think we hit their pontoon boats, one old guy this past summer looked like he was having a stroke.
    That guy in your video was being an ahole for sure 😂
