Just can't beat the beauty of fishing the rivers of Missouri, no matter how the bite goes. A thought- I don't think there's any water big enough that the river otter can't or won't do damage to the fishery. Good job man.
Oh, I know. I fished it out of my kayak. I put in at Sandy Shoal and fish to Boiling Springs. One trip I caught 22 smallies and had the river to myself.
enjoyed the video. After 35 years of tourney fishing in MO reservoirs I decided to quit doing that and so sold my fiberglass bass boat last summer. Ive been thinking about getting a jet powered tin boat and only go fun fishing in the rivers next year.
Hey Randy enjoyed the video, when I was around 5 yrs old we lived in Dixon I think it was the gasconade where my dad first took me fishing. He moved us to California 10yrs later, now I'm 70 still bass fishing I think I would like to finish my ride back there🤔
I live 500 yards off the Gasconade river here by Boiling Springs camp ground. The river is beautiful this time of year but not a whole lot of water the last few years. My wife and I kayak it a lot and the Big Piney since the mouth of it is like a mile up river from us. We have not taken our river boat out in a few years. Good luck and tight lines.
I know exactly where that’s at! The boys and I camped often at Boiling Springs when they were little. You’re in some of the best smallmouth fishing anywhere in the Midwest!
Really enjoy your videos. Would be cool if you did a rod and reel arsenal video sometime as well. Looks like you really like Abu bait casters and Bass Pro rods. Curious of what line you like to use.
Appreciate it Matt. Yeah, I seem to have several of both, mostly because they’re reasonably priced, durable, and as long as I keep them reasonably clean and oiled, they’ve held up over the years.
Great video! I have recently found your page and really enjoy your content. Me and my sons have fished the gasconade a little bit. Is this section of the river deep enough to get around in a boat with a prop?
@@tommerli239 appreciate the support! There’s several shoals less than 12” deep all throughout that stretch of river. Jet boats and canoes/kayaks are about all I see here.
@@salinger007 I haven’t tried, yet. But there are crappie on it and I may try them later this winter. Not sure exactly where they school up, but I’ll start looking around some of the deeper logs/trees in the water.

Great church bells!!

They definitely added to the experience!
Love the river run clips,cool manuvering
Appreciate it Raynaldo. It’s something unique I can bring to the plethora of fishing channels!
Gotta love that Gasconade! I don't know if you've ever fished the Big Piney, but it's a Smallie haven for sure. Keep up the good work.
Appreciate it Mike. I love the Big Piney. Had some great days there but my 18’ jet is usually a little too big for that river.

You sir are a machine. That’s for another great video.
Thanks not that’s
Awesome video Randy! The Gasconade river is beautiful! Seems to always be feast or famine for me!
Indeed. It’s a lot better than it showed here. I’ll give it another go soon.

You won’t regret it, especially this time of year. Peaceful, beautiful rivers almost all to yourself!

Glad you’re still at it. That stretch of the Gasconade near Dixon is 🔥

Enjoyed the video. Have you ever fish Lake Wappapello here in southeast Missouri?
@@fishingjunkie849 I have not. Toured it once or twice when I worked for the Corps 30 years ago, but never fished it.
@@randydomanoutdoors225 dang it lol I was going to ask for some pointers this lake is tough during winter or anytime the yr.

@ I appreciate the response thank you! Looking forward to more of your videos.
Have you caught crappie on the Osage? Any tips? I just found your channel.

@@randydomanoutdoors225 thanks - enjoy your videos!
@@salinger007 appreciate it and thanks for watching!
What size jet motor you ruining?
@@danlaminger5265 115/80
What size jet you run?
@@Milly81728 115/80
Is the Osage deep enough to run a prop or jet motor only?
I’ve seen both on the river. When it’s low (which is most of the time) a prop won’t get you very far from the ramp.
