LATE NIGHT Kayak Fishing for GIANTS! (Flathead Catch and Cook)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2020
- Big fish come out at night lots of times. Fishing off the bank is usually more comfortable. You can stretch your legs, make a fire, really kickback. BUT, fishing out of a kayak or boat is lots of times the best way to position your baits in the spot they're most likely to get hit. So that's what we did, and I hooked a MONSTER!

You won't regret going to a jet boat! I had a outboard jet sled built 4 years ago. Big smile on my faces every time I take her out. Built and set up just for flathead fishing. I went a little smaller though. 1755 Lowe shallow water with 90/65 obj. I can hit 40mph and run all day long in 2 or 3 inches of water! ;)
If I wasn't going to guide, that's exactly what I would have went with. A lot easier to move if I got stuck haha. Sounds like a badass rig man!
Dwight shrutte enjoyed the video.......thanks for your time bro!!
Glad you did dude!
I have a feeling u still be in those creeks and trees big boat can't go, you're channel killer shows the hard work, drive I got it 2 keep teaching man you got it.Chef
I won't be getting rid of the kayak. Ill still be making a point to put out 2 videos a week, and especially in June, there will be kayaking happening. Really glad ya enjoy it all!
Hey Spencer.... Throw some lemon pepper in your “food box”...... they also make these lemon crystals ... like dehydrated lemon... definitely worth it when out cooking on a fire and dont want to carry actual lemons with you. But a bit of lemon on that flat head on the grill... oh yeah. And to take it to the next level Rachel Ray.... you can get some basil and cilantro.
Here’s a killer one.... foil cook fish... butter bit of oil and fish in foil packet, you can slice potatoes and put on the bottom.. just be careful with how thin, they can burn if not careful. Put fish fillets ontop of potatoes. ... Lay on the coals... let cook about 20 minutes... when it comes out... take some chopped tomato, red onion and basil... splash or two of balsamic vinegar..... put on fish and enjoy!!
I mean if you are gonna be out there cooking... do it right... kind of like your fishing... dont half step it now! Lol.
Love your channel.. Please keep doing what you are doing! Is a fun to watch.
I try to balance gormet with convenience. It's a tough line to walk lots of times. Fishing always trumps the food, so that slows down the cooking too haha
Well dun!!! Thanks for seasoning the cubs hat, and dont forget the butter..
I did forget the butter. Not my finest moment hahaha
Cought my biggest flatty this weekend 45 lbs thanks for the direction
Congrats! That's a nice catch! I didn't break my PB this year sadly. But still a little time left.
Dude thats a beast! Super stoked for you!
@@RiverCertified I'll have some pics up on my Instagram we slayed the flatties cought 132 lbs of fish even camped out on the sand bar for the weekend was the best trip I've had all year
Flatheads or Blues on the grill, YUMM :) We often will soak them in 7-UP overnight when possible, the meat will firm up and give a soft lemon taste no mater your spice or method of cooking. Grilled fish ROCKS!
I'm definitely gonna try that one. Sounds phenomenal! Thanks for the tip!
Hooking and actually landing a fish are two entirely different things as I think you know by now. But it's always fun seeing you paddle around and get hung up,on stuff and watching other people catch fish and you usually cooking brats and beans...it's great video!!😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thats pretty standard 🤣
River Certified consistency is good!! Hey man is all about the ride!! Don't ever change....it's what keeps you real. And we are all real folks😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. Anyone can cut and paste and make it look like it's all,easy but we know how it really is and that's much more refreshing my dude!
Get er done fellars, get er done! It’s that time of year to catch the REAL BIG HOG! Or two..?!!
I'll be trying this weekend! Unfortunately in Iowa we're running out of time.
River Certified - yeah, winter comes sooner there than here in Ky.
That's a good-looking River!
I'm a fan!
I have always fried nuggets never thought about grilling my catfish. Got 2 flattish and 2 blues Saturday night so I may be grilling a flathead filet this weekend. Wish me luck
Good luck man! Probably be a good idea to look up some recipes too.
Just saw the Cubs just quenched a spot in playoffs! GO CUBS GO!
Yessir! Hopefully the bats come alive soon!
The effort you put in to your videos shows. I've enjoyed everyone of them that I've watched. Keep it up!!
That's the best kinda compliment. I really appreciate it!
Good to see ole Woody. Fish looks good but I'm sure it tastes even better.
Yessir. Hopefully I can talk ella into camping this weekend. Woody will definitely be tagging along then
Be great to see Ella and Ole Woody in a new vid. Good work Spence.
That kayak should support the basic wheels you slid in the scupper holes. Bass pro has them, the best investment
They're great on even terrain. Bumpy stuff will ruin your hull. Dont ask how I know 🤣
Your so courteous u answer every comment soon that's gonna be very hard your getting way high in the numbers so proud I knew u early. Sorry u missed your giant but there will b more and u will catch them. I have had grilled flathead I did not catch it and I did not cook it
But it was delish. Didnt know it was your birthday so happy happy day to u. We were blessed to get us a river certified on that day. I have to agree with everyone about the new do it doesn't even look red .... I really really lived this vid glad for your new boat but I sure will miss the kayak. Hope school is going well un till next time stay safe
I try my best! Thank you too for the birthday wishes! I won't give up the kayak. There's times where it's the best way to get em!
that jet boat better not stop the kayaking lol
There's too many times where a kayak is the best way for me to stop that!
The great part of fishing from a kayak is fishing from a kayak in places most boats can go. The great part about fishing from a kayak is the workouts it takes putting in and packing out.
Those are definitely perks!
Hey thanks for all you do and thanks for sharing your cooking.
I'm just glad you enjoyed the video!
Great video! I could tell you was hooked up to a TANK! It was pulling your Kayak sideways. FLATHEAD on grill looked great. Keep fishing Bro
I hope to get another chance! It might have tasted even better than it looked haha. Glad you enjoyed it!
Love the chopped up paddle.
Its got the brush hook on it😁
The cooking tips/end monologue should be a regular thing. Honestly enjoyed it almost as much as the fishing parts. I've never grilled catfish before, so I'm off to catch a flatty :)
Yes the Hair reminded me of one of my Childhood terrors, Art the Barber. My Dad took my Brother and me to him once a month for the Sheer Treatment. Nothing like being a 6 Y.O. in the late 60's and getting whacked by Art. A good Guy though, had to real barber chairs and the Pole out front and always gave my Brother and me a Tootsie Pop afterwards. I don't know how a Barber made a living but he. Loved the Catch and Cook, the fish looked great on the grill. Something I think we'll have to try.
Hahaha I like it cuz it lasts a while and is easy to take care of. I bet I would have liked Art. Highly recommend fish on the grill!
I’m glad Josh gave you that reel. Watching him using it with that wobbly handle drove me nuts!
Hahahaha its far from fixed. I actually swapped it out on snoopy😁
@@RiverCertified I saw it on snoopy. I laughed out loud. I’d recognize that broken handle anywhere. I heard Josh say you gave him a whisker seeker rod. If it was a trade you got hosed! Great channel! Keep them coming.
Got to take my nephews fishing last Saturday afternoon went to a water shed pond , the boys caught some small channels, bull head , bass and blue hill all on night crawlers , very shallow pond if it’s 3 feet I’d be surprised, creek dumps into it then it runs into another pond then into the lake .. back in the day it was just a creek and wetlands but they have developed it in last ten years , Bob the less boys had fun and bow I got a spot for bait
That sounds like an awesome day to me! Win-win, which is the best you can ask for!
Jet Boat? Low Profile Okuma Reel? Who are you??? ;) Denny was a great guest on the show ! I may be messaging you... Happy Fishing!!!
I'm just a bum on the river 😁
Another great adventure!!
It never gets old does it fellas?
I started a FB group after watching River Certified all summer.
I Just cant get enough of the River life!!
Good times my friends!!
Good times!!
It doesn't for me at least! Glad you're enjoying some time on the water!
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for the time and effort you put into them.
Glad ya dig em dude!
Not sure I've ever seen you without a hat 🤣
My wife says the same thing hahaha
Ooh yes grilled flathead is delicious also smoked catfish is aaaamazing as well
I have to agree sir
Really enjoy the videos. Found you through Stache Dickhead. always cool to learn a few things. Thanks for puttin the info out there for us. Missouri neighbor here.
Glad it helps! I guess Josh ain't so bad after all haha. Good luck fishing sir!
last time I was this late to a RC video, it was due to poor connection while I was up lake. welp.... same today. got a few 1lb blugill in the boat but no Flatties wanna play. time to watch.
Dude, 1 lb gills ain't nothing to snub your nose at. Glad your on some fish!
River Certified yes bait catching today was Better than the cat bite
Spencer, I have placed catfish fillets into a microwave dish, layered on some onion rings and then smeared on a little hickory flavored BBQ sauce. It was a long time ago but IIRC 4-5 mins per side and they were done. I liked them. My cat attacked me because I wouldn't give him some and my wife made me sleep on the couch for smellin up her new microwave. But it was worth it. I smelled up our new charcoal grill too doin something similar. Hehehe.
Haha I microwaved some shrimp yesterday. I understand where you're coming from.
Hey Okay so do not flip out.. Try using mayonnaise to keep it from sticking when grilling and it holds your choice of seasoning on.. Trust me man! I know its like WTF but it works well... Just do not put a boat load of mayo on! Also love the Gulf!!! Hooked a tarpon for the first time this year in Aug near Gulf Shores. Great video
Makes sense. That stuff is oily. The salt is a totally different world man!
Thanks Spencer for keeping us entertained!
I'm glad ya enjoy it!
I run a 25 hp mercury jet drive on my 16ft flatbottom there fun you can get into some tight shallow water sometimes I do wish I had a 40hp or a tad bigger but the jet drives are awesome i love it ohh and nice tacoma I have one too I love toyota trucks things are very reliable tight lines brotha cant wait until the next one
Sounds like you have a badass rig, truck and boat! Good luck fishing man!
2 stroke exhaust is one of those weird smells that’s so enjoyable 😂
It's so weird that something that will kill you deader than a hammer smells like that too
That fish made me so hungry. It looked beautiful. Excellent job!
It was quite delicious😁 glad you enjoyed the video!
Heck man I would eat that never thought of grilling catfish. I sure will try it! Stay safe brother God bless.
Flatheads are way better grilled than channels. You do the same!
Another awesome video...you know..I watch alot of channels..it is all about the fishing content and the commentary...you have both..great job
I'm glad you enjoy them dude! Makes my day!
Right now the world really needs a river certified, pig patrol, catfish Dave, kayak catfish and Bill Dance collab. I'd help pay to rent a party barge to make this happen!
No doubt that would be very entertaining. The MTV Real World version of catfishing haha
I enjoy Spence & Josh myself - the jabbing is entertaining (ask Boo)
Excellent channel. Very informative. I've learned quite a bit from watching River Certified. Keep up the good work, sir. Also I bought a shirt to support your venture. Again, thank you.
Makes my day reading that. Really glad you're finding some value to the channel! I appreciate the support and really hope you like the shirt!
Awesome video man!!! I get really really excited when i get the notification for your videos!!!!!
Glad ya do! Really enjoy reading that. Thank you!
That was a great video! You caught it brought us home and cooked and ate with us that's what makes your podcast fun for me to watch great job buddy that was so cool.
I'm just glad you get a kick out of it! Thanks for the kind words!
I love these flathead videos 👌🏽 I learn a lot.
Glad ya do dude!
Baked, steamed, or grilled over fried any day. That looked so good!
Not sure if it's better, but its definitely a nice change of pace!
Awesome video
Great watching and would have liked to have seen just how big the unstoppable flathead really was but we will next time hopefully. On grilling the belly if you remove the lining from the belly meat it will not curl up as bad and in my opinion it’s better tasting than it already is. Just a thought you may try it next time.
Thanks all around Shannon! I'm definitely gonna try that next time I grill flathead
Really like how you did the follow up video of cooking the catfish. Awesome video man
Really glad you enjoyed it!
Man it couldn't have been fun dragging the canoe in the dark. Your more man than me. Last time I just pushed a car twenty feet I literally died and had open heart surgery three days later lol.
I like to think it keeps ya young haha. Glad you bounced back!
@@RiverCertified ya I'm not the same ol bouncy person. The surgery definitely took a step out of me but yes I survived to catch another day.
Awesome content!!! Keep up the great work!!!
I'll do my best! Glad you enjoy it!
You know Spence, flatheads have a scallop or oyster of meat on their head just behind and above , a little, their eyes, both sides. And the bigger they are the bigger the “oyster”! I found that out a long time ago, unfortunately I guess from an old boy who set out trot lines and cleaned everything he caught, even the “Golly Whopper” flatheads, I’m talking the 30, 40, 50 lb’ers and bigger too! Course he was brought meat fishing, you know what I mean?
Oh, I took out the cheeks on that one too. I fried em the next day. Keeping all the fish you caught is how it used to be, and that's cool. I just choose to let the big ones go.
River Certified - right on, yeah folks back then didn’t have much of a choice but to keep everything they catch, either that or go hungry. Yeah I never liked to keep the big ones either, well anything 10 lbs or bigger. If I did keep any they would all be 5 lbs and smaller. I tell you though once I ate my first little Flathead, I never did keep anymore channel cats after that. lol
Dude you got me hooked on flathead fishing!
It is super addictive. Cant say im sorry haha
Sorry for your loss my brotha
Goes with the territory. I appreciate it!
@@RiverCertified it does but you handle it better than most respect brotha
Grilled flathead with garlic 🍋 pepper is good. And fire your barber lol
🤣🤣🤣thanks for the tip man!
awesome...... fun video man
Glad ya got a kick out of it!
These videos r great
Glad ya get a kick out of them!
Still processing. I think the Rachael Ray know more about fishing than cooking but don't know much about fishing is a math problem.
Great video.
Thanks
I'll have to make the students try to answer that one😁 glad ya enjoyed it!
Round like 3 or 4 of watching this...love this videos
I'm glad ya do man! Gonna take the kayak out tomorrow. Hopefully find a few!
Been watching your videos for months and finally subscribed cuz i can't stop searching for new ones haha! I want to send u some of my hometown hot sauce and seasoning. Cincinnati ohio 🤘
I'm glad you like the videos so much! I should get a P.O. Box for stuff like that. I'll try to remember to update everyone.
@@RiverCertified awesome thanks for the reply 👍
The grilled flathead looked Great!
It was phenomenal!
Love the videos, hope you had a happy birthday
Glad ya do Henry! I really appreciate it!
I love your videos
Nice video. Da BEARS!!! On a roll. And my fins struggling. Lol.
The Cubs are playing well and the bears are winning. Im spoiled haha
Friand I've been waiting this and some of your fishing. You caut some good fish. 😉
I get lucky haha. Glad ya enjoy the videos!
First time I ever saw you without a hat! Smooth cut bud. Great video brother.. Heading to 🐀 the river, looking for a big ugly brown flatty..
Thanks again brother
Hope you beat em up! Good luck man!
Motojet in Lewiston ID does some badass mini jet boats..check em out online, they’re not really built for fishing..not yet at least. Leave it to a kayak dude to resolve that lol
Those have a LOT of potential haha
Love the videos boss.
Really glad you do!
You should try grilling gar next time you get one
If I get one, im gonna BBQ it!
I've never tried grilled flathead , i have ate it deep fried and its delicious . Next time I get a flathead I will have to grill it . Too bad you didn't get the big one you hooked up with could have been a 70+ lb kitty
Its worth a try! I really like it with fish taco seasoning too. Ill be after that one again soon!
Great video, I liked the fishing/at home cook, talk, and eat combo. That fish looked delicious. I have some tuna thawing out for tomorrow that I caught in north Carolina. I made some tacos with sea bass the other day,seriously one of my favorites from the ocean...I gotta eat all this fish i caught on vacation man lol. Brought home about 60lbs of cleaned fish fillets. I always enjoy a river certified video, take care brother!
Youre definitely spoiled! Glad you had a great trip.man! I need some tuna steaks in my life!
Great as always! Now I'm going to have to try flathead grilled. I bet it is outstanding! Another seasoning to try sometime is Everglades Seasoning if you haven't tried it yet! Really good stuff!
Hope ya like it! I've never had that one. Gonna have to look into it. Thanks man!
@@RiverCertified I'm sure I will. It looked amazing, especially that Slab of belly meat! I'm like you with the red meat on Flatties, doesn't bother me at all. Channels I cut it out though lol. The Whites never seem to have much red meat.
The Everglades I get on Amazon. Can't find it anywhere else outside of Florida/Alabama areas lol. It's really outstanding on French fries! I always keep a big container of it, Tony C's, and Slap Ya Mamma on hand!
I love the hook set and when that 1st run scares you a little bit 👍🏻 50 pounders will do that to the baddest of men 🔥🔥🔥
Glad ya appreciated that haha. You aint kidding!
River Certified 💯💪🏽🔥
Always a great video brother fish looked good damn near like a steak haha
Thats one of the coolest parts about grilling them. Treat em like chicken😁 you're the man!
Wow, power up😗😁
Awesome video brother. Sure would like to have seen that one that got away, but that's the life of flathead fishing, if you ain't getting hung up you ain't fishing in the right spots,lol. Thanks for the video, keep em coming.
You got that right! Hopefully will get another shot this weekend!
Got home from work 10.30ish got my dinner sat down checked my phone fer vid.s and said heck ya man river certified posted made my dinner alot better..thank.s going to go after them kittie.s wedsday this time in the boat to a good spot hopefully do good they been getting them blue.s upto 30ish pound.s so we.ll see.ill let ya know if i catch s giant..cheer.s ron..going to order a shirt from ya when this mail delivery get.s back to normal.

Hell yeah! Hope you enjoyed it! Even more, I hope you get onto some good ones!
Jet boats are cool but, you’ll still need that yak for the creeks.
They ol' kayak ain't going nowhere. Well, I'm gonna sell the big one, but not the little one😁
Nice vid brother 👍 I do the same thing with a side scrambled eggs and definitely the hot sauce.
Dude, I bet thats delicious!
I was hoping to see a flying flathead, and I was really hoping to see Spencer try catching that flying flathead. 🤣
That would have been stories of legend🤣🤣🤣
When you liftin that taco
Gotta get my boat paid off first
The best ones always lose the big ones fish look amazing goin need 2 try and grill them and take your word they are that good....fish on n never give up
It happens man, but the grilled fish is worth it!
Awesome
Glad ya liked it!
You're such a cool ass dude. Love the vids brother!
Awfully kind words. Im just glad ya enjoy the videos!
great video, win some loose some lol. a real buddy let you take his fish and eat it lol. lots of laughs, stay safe.
Ol Ryan is about as good of a dude as you get. Really appreciate all the support and enjoy your comments!
You lost that big fish bc you didn't say "He's not small!"
Also when you switched to no hat i thought that was someone else for a few seconds. Keep making vids. You rock.
I will try to remember your advice in future haha. Glad ya get a kick out of them!
You are a good man Spence, don't fret about missing a fish, we all do periodically. Appreciate your videos 👍
Thanks for certifying my cheeseburgers 🤙🤙 cant wait to get a certified flat head after getting my first targeted channel catfish from the yak at 3am 🤙
Hope you find one! Those burgers looked phenomenal!
When you're hungry just throw some fillets in some foil on some red hot coals with your favorite seasoning and enjoy in about 15 minutes.
I always bring foil for that, and end up frying them haha
Huge fan! I wanna get some merchandise
Red fish, would like to see you do more of that.
need to get some bed-liner for that truck... lol
Me too. Ironically, the truck is getting a bed liner and tonneau cover put in it today!
Might of got that fish if you kept them old ambassadors
You aint wrong. Just gotta get used to em.
Rachel Ray of the river 🤣👊
😁😁😁
Sucks how I get my license October 1st to where I wasn’t able to go to des moins this summer but I’ll go to Mississippi and Missouri River before it get cold for flatheads and I’ll even go for blues
You're much better off there. So much potential on those waters man!
hell yeah awesome video man thanks again. Shitty luck but that's fishing lol
Glad ya liked it! You got that right
Love ur videos bro hope I see u out fishing sometime i fish all over Iowa but I live in southwest
Definitely say hi if you do! Good luck fishing!
I will for sure! Good luck to u too man!!
“Beat em around in a log jam for 2 weeks” I can’t even keep the same hook for a couple days
I have a few days like that too haha
heyyyyy look at this guy
Yeah, he's a real loser hahaha
River Certified 😂🤣
Maybe I’ll be river certified one day
You probably already are!
River Certified thanks!! Maybe for crappie and bass...
I am trying to be certified but barely catching on these little dink rivers round here
Nice video friend
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love grilled fish if it is the right fish and I’m with ya walleye and flaties are great grilled but I’m pretty particular with the seasoning gotta have the old bay for grilled fish
Old bay is my favorite! I just didn't have any one hand unfortunately. Glad ya dig the videos!
River Certified have you ever tried Riley’s? All purpose seasoning that I use all the time
