I cannot believe that there is a dam that big there yet you are the only person I see, if this was in Illinois 99% of those fish would be harvested in the first month of the bite, good fish fun video to watch!
Oh trust me, that spot I was standing in gets HAMMERED in the spring lol. I was just there all day and was able to move around people. But Thank You for watching. I just published another video in which I land my biggest tarpon to date. Go check it out if you'd like, and hit me with a subscribe if you want to! Giveaway coming soon!
I wore out big hybrids last week there . The smallmouth are moving good in that place in between Ashland and where you live we need to get together and wade it here soon
As a lure that looks like a bait fish, I used a Berkley power bait 3" pogy shad natural color in a small paddle only Ohio lake. Nailed a 2 ft hybrid , forgot the net , snapped 8 lb braid by my kayak seat trying to getting out of the water
Went down to South Carolina at Watery river hydra damm . Everytime the turbine kick in and the water rose up a couple feet. Big stripers would smack the top of the water and stun the shads it was wild.
It is a pretty complex thing to describe lol. I watch temps more than current. I'll adjust where I fish based on current breaks, but the temp needs to be right.
Hello Sir, what St. Croix model spinning rod is that? I love that color, like a Tahitian Green/Seafoam Aqua Green color. St. Croix Triumph Inshore model? Nvm, based on the guides, looks like the Inshore Mojo model?
I appreciate a St Croix fan! It is an Avid Inshore model. One of my favorite rods! Beautiful rods and lots of performance for your dollar. I believe this one is a medium fast action.
I'm sorry to tell you this man everybody's not there to catch panfish some people are there to try to catch record fish or big fish if you think that Ron is going to hold a 10 or 6 lb hybrid your funny especially in Swiftwater so don't talk about people's gear I can show you multiple pictures of monsters I've got there and it would not have been caught on the ultralight believe that
I'll let my name, my gear, my experience, my reputation and my skill speak for itself. I've got nothing to prove here or anywhere. But, and I'd lay my life on this, if you were to peep into my fishing world, or life in general, I don't think you'd walk away feeling as adequate as you fancy yourself. And i wasnt aware a 10lb hybrid was a trophy. But they are fun on that rod for sure 🫡Men fishing on UA-cam aren't threatening, unless that's something that happens easily for you. Enjoy the fishing. Stay the drama. Tight lines.
I mean I've caught 10-12lb bowfin on ultralights in Florida rivers. There are definitely going to be scenarios anytime you fish with lighter gear where you get outclassed, but lighter gear is required for XYZ presentations at times. I'd even say there's a scenario at every level of gear you'll be outclassed in. If you have confidence in your abilities, you can greatly greatly reduce the number of outclassed scenarios that you lose.
Another awesome job! Thanks for sharing! Keep it up!
I appreciate it 🙏
Another good one! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks man!!
The Mighty Ohio River is such a killer fisherie!!
It really is!

Soon I'll be out in the creeks and ready to fish for smallies. Rain got it all jacked up!

That sucks! But excellent bait choice 👏

That would be something to see. I watched them hitting rainbows at wolf creek one time.
Man i wish we had some Skipjack in my area. Great Video 👊
Thank you! Where are you at?
@@thesaltygoogan Kansas City Area
@@TheKCFishPage oh ok wow, yeah that's a big hop from here 😅 haven't been through there in a while!
What is water levels are best for fishing there? I was thinking about stopping in during the sauger bite.

Which dam are you fishing below? Good video!
Thank you 😊 this is greenup
Awesome video! New to fishing .what part of Ohio is this at so I can go ! Please & Thank you
Thank you. It is from greenup. Make sure and subscribe please, as I will continue to explore our dam systems up and down the rivers.

What dam you fishing. Any sauger biting.
Greenup. Not too many right now.
I have always wanted to catch a hybrid or white bass.
Only focused on large mouth and catfish my entire life.
They are absolutely addictive!!
@@thesaltygoogan it looks it!!!! Definitely need to take a trip out with you one day and pick at all that fishing knowledge you have lol
Those hybrids are fighters, had one on a kayak , that fish had the kayak doing figure 8s drag around the lake
@@lowlifeangler I don't doubt that
Best time of the year to fish fo those hybrids?
Spring and fall. But they can be caught in good numbers in the summer too
when was this? last weekend?
I believe it was like 2.5 weeks-ish ago
What dam?
Greenup
What dam is that

@@thesaltygoogan thank you sir

Why you don't keep the fish and eat them???
I sometimes do. Most often I catch and release. But trust me, I eat them 😋
