Don't reel in your large live baits to "check" them. Just grab the line and give a little tug to see if it tugs back and is still alive. If you keep reeling it in and casting it, that will sometimes cause it to dislodge or kill it by slamming it onto the waters surface. Leave it sit unless you are moving to another spot. Sometimes it takes a large fish a long time to find your bait. Occasionally tugging slightly on your line will make your live bait active and attract large predatory fish. Just make sure you don't do it hard enough to tear off your live offering.
Wow just seeing this out of the box ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.
Finally... someone whom doesn’t think that just because the camera is running. That their lips need to be obnoxiously running as well. Calm, cool, collected, and nicely edited.
You'd be surprised colin. I have fished the same stretch of river lots of times and caught the same fish multiple times. Sometimes they go back to the same place you initially hooked them at or at least stay within the same area so even if you dont cast to the same exact spot, you run the chance of hooking them a second or third time.
What I like about this video is it’s crisp and clear. No audio artifacts or silly visual effects added on. The music isn’t overused or too loud, and fits the mood. This is honestly very high quality production for a little UA-cam video about a day fishing. You could probably be a television show editor or producer if you wanted.
I have learned that just because 618 says he is fishing for a monster that does not mean he will catch a monster.........or hook a monster.......or see a monster.
Takes a picture of a $200 prime rib hanging on a grouper hook and says he’s spillway fishing for nuclear-freak sized fish today ( catches a 12” channel cat) “Well not today folks…”
@@tmikew33 thats fucked I live in Canada and none of that even panfish is legal to use as bait the only things you can use or minnows suckers and Cisco and any kid kind of baitfish
I lost my favorite crankbait on what i could only imagine was a pike in my community spot, about two weeks later i catch that pike with a jig and get my crankbait back. I just had to replace the rear hook
Brian Zimmer last year long story short I caught a 22in small mouth. As I picked it out of the water my line hit the concrete peir snapped my line. 4 days later went back got my lure back. Caught the same fish. It was half way down hid throatI worked it out and set him free.
I caught a 2 lbs largemouth with a black bomber lure in his mouth (not mine). I thought I would pull all the extra line in. It still had the rod and reel atached.
Was kayak fishing and found a floating crankbait on the surface. Picked up the crankbait and pulled in the line attached to it and got a new fishing pole.
Lol, that's just a little guy. They get a bit bigger. I've had a couple out of the Illinois River that were nose to tail in the bottom of a five gallon bucket. One was chunkier, but I don't carry a scale, so I'll never know. The state record for black and yellow bullhead is over 5lbs each, and Brown is almost a pound and a half, but I don't think Ive ever seen a Brown.
Hey Nick, for those big catfish in spillways, try that same large bait... closer to shore.... depending on how fast it drops off.... about 4 ft deep! They generally work the shorelines, especially if there is rock / rip-rap on the sides.
@@mikestandaert4428 wrong. A predator fish will mouth around on one of those spiny baits until he can crush and swallow it sometimes this results in a lost bait the fish steels, or it could mean the fish will just spit the bait. Clip the spines and they will gobble it.
Circle hooks are counter intuitive, you have to just wait for them to take the bait and then you do not set the hook. You reel down and then maintain pressure. Let the hook do what it’s designed to do. Setting the hook on a circle hook will pull the bait out of their mouths every time. Good luck and tight lines!
Yes sir, just reel. Setting the hooks is for j hooks only! If you want to set the hook, use j hooks... If you don’t, then use circles... Don’t do both!
Yeah it's different for sure. C hooks are a fickle beast. If set the hook about 85% the time you missed that fish. Hubby and I are mainly bass and here in the heavy grass of Florida we are used to jacking their jaws. So when we go salt water fishing with live bait we use Chooks (for catch and release reasons and when shiner fishing for bass we don't want belly hooked fish) it takes thought to not set the hook and just raise the rod tip and reel slack.
I fish almost exclusively for flatheads with live bait circle hooks and have always set the hook. Seems to work fine for me. I certainly have better than a 15% hook up rate. I've tried the reel down method with very limited success. I think the that reason has to do with the way I fish. Who knows maybe I'll try it next time out and see how it goes.
I’m from the Netherlands and it’s so cool to see you catch all these different species at the same spot! If I get a take I usually know what type of fish is on the end, must be really fun to be surprised that often 👍
I’m sure someone has mentioned it before, but those bowfin are easily caught the same plastic worms you would use for bass. It’s a ton of fun to catch them on bass tackle.
@@enstudios2320 Thank you!!! It pisses me off to no end seeing them dead on the shore. They are NOT snakeheads and they don't decimate a healthy ecosystem.
Wish back in the 80s we had youtube. My brother loved to fish. Id be with him as a little annoying sister sometimes. I had no clue what i was doing, fishing wise. But could bait my own hook and tie my own hook thanks to him teaching me. When i was like 7, i caught a lizard and put him on the hook, (he was a male and was prior fighting so he had skin all up on his back, placed hook there) No heavy weights, so he floated and ran swam along top. Until a 15 pound fl bass snagged him. Another time little older, we were at a cannal off the bay in Fl. And i was out of bait. So i put on a part of my mcdonalds burger patty on. Threw it out and caught a 30 pound sail fin catfish.
Well, Nick, I go for the long awaited shoulder replacement this morning. I need you to go fishing more frequently for the next 6 to 8 weeks. Your adventures makes time fly.
I'll catch a coho salmon and eat it for you tomorrow. I have a broken shoulder right now as well but it hasn't stopped me from casting my line out and letting it sit in the heavy current with a trolling spoon on there. Dardevle red eye spoons. My injury isn't horrible though just a type 3 ACJ dislocation.
Thank you!! My favorite kind of fishing....catfish and carp. Can't fish anymore but loving watching it. Also a little larger hook may help to really hook any you might otherwise lose.
@@gonnalearntoday5649 I'm 77 now and can't fish anymore. I didn't eat carp or cat. Fished mostly in pay lakes and gave my fish away to people who wanted to eat them.

Ben Livingston Also need to put a big float (20 oz coke bottle works) on the line when fishing from bank so that fish can’t go straight to the bottom, they need to be two feet up so big kitty fish can easily see them from much farther away..... (on boat you would just drop fish and limit the line). When I’m halibut fishing I keep my live bait about ten to fifteen feet above bottom...

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone on UA-cam show so much love to the misunderstood and highly underrated bowfin. I like that a lot bro. I’m always talking about them and my friends are like 😒. Whatever!!! I love bowfin 🤷🏾♂️ 😤
I remember the first time I caught one in the Allegheny River and I had zero clue what it was. Thankfully some old timer fishing just up the river from me knew what it was. I was so pumped to catch that fish. This guy was pulling them in all day.
I love this guy, don't particularly like watching fishing videos, but his enthusiasm, his "fish on" and "see ya later buddy", I'm "hooked"!! Definitely want to go fishing with him, definitely love watching his videos...
When using live bait you have to wait till the pole bends alot before setting the hook. The live bait will try swimming away from the bigger fish making it look like you're getting a bite. Be patient and wait
this guy when he catches a big fish: holy.... Me unfortunately: OMG OMG OMG I NEED TO TAKE A PICTURE Edit: also the first fish he caught was the big fish i catch 😂
This is awesome!! Brings me back way back!! I fished in a town called Selkirk. The local docks where the place to catch cat fish. On the right side we had a massive concert dock dock to left a dry dock. On any day it was cat fish day! Beautiful fresh channel cats to monster yellow cats. I caught a 47lb yellow on minnows from Frizens store. We ended up 40 lbs of fish fillet!! Best darn fish barbecue ever!!
It was super cool to see you save that fish on all that. loose. Line. he might've been wrapped in that line for you don't know how long thanks again for helping this poor fish! iagain helping this poor fish!!!!!!!!!!!💕

HEY
Don't reel in your large live baits to "check" them. Just grab the line and give a little tug to see if it tugs back and is still alive. If you keep reeling it in and casting it, that will sometimes cause it to dislodge or kill it by slamming it onto the waters surface. Leave it sit unless you are moving to another spot. Sometimes it takes a large fish a long time to find your bait. Occasionally tugging slightly on your line will make your live bait active and attract large predatory fish. Just make sure you don't do it hard enough to tear off your live offering.

Dismembered bodies (albeit plastic ones) add some flavor to the video, don't you think? 😅😅
If you close your eyes it’s like your fishing with John Krasinsky.
Just his bait looks like my best fishing day
I just love how I can go fishing anytime I feel like it
I love this guy, don't particularly like watching fishing videos, but his enthusiasm, his "fish on" and "see ya later buddy", I'm "hooked"!! Definitely want to go fishing with him, definitely love watching his videos...
Gave me a trip down memory lane catching 17 flat heads in one night at the ice factory in Paramaribo, Suriname. Thanks for a great video ❤️
That poor fish being tossed to and fro to catch a bigger fish is like, "Can you just end me now for fish sake?"
"Holy cow - fish on - see ya later buddy".... 🍻
"See ya buddy, whooo this is a nice one..not bigs as the other 😂😂😂
Everybody have a drink when he says see you later buddy
I'm fuck as drunk right now
Take me drunk im home
Interesting video. I'll look for the next one but until then, see ya later buddy! 😁
Fellow 618 resident here
In the beginning of his vids he’s like “HOOKED UP WITH A HUGE FISH” ends up being a snagged carp
It happens to him a lot
Did you see the goose he had with him
Unfortunately
This guy deserves so many more subs he is honestly one of the best fishing you tubers I have seen
Check out ndyakfishing
Stop...
Nick even keeps his voice down when other fisherman are near, he’d make a good neighbor!👍😊
I've literally been fishing 6 times this month not one fish only the bugs are biteing
They are under a Stay at home order...
I went out about 8 times and caught nothing but then I Caught 3 on the 9th and then I I started catching fish again
@Soapy Sandal I think he was talking about the fish lol
Soapy Sandal that went wayyy over your head 😂
I've been fishing at least 50 and I've only caught two sand bass
Looks like you got the same fish all-time.
You say - see you later
Fish - sure
🤣
HAPPY THANKSGIVING NICK
When using live bait you have to wait till the pole bends alot before setting the hook. The live bait will try swimming away from the bigger fish making it look like you're getting a bite. Be patient and wait
Especially this big bait!
Disclaimer: there were no monsters caught in this video.
You’re fun at parties 😐
Yo yikes I u no no hi
It was just photo shop
You ain't wrong
Hey thanks for saving me time tho
I CHALLENGE YOU TO CATCH A 12 POUND BOWFIN
618 Fishing: “Poops”
“Looks at the poop” See ya later buddy😂
what is the derivative of COS?
This made me laugh to much
It seems that I was not the only one watching the guy in the background lol
The fishing is great! But your music and scenery pictures are spot on.
this guy when he catches a big fish: holy....
Me unfortunately: OMG OMG OMG I NEED TO TAKE A PICTURE
Edit: also the first fish he caught was the big fish i catch 😂
This is awesome!! Brings me back way back!! I fished in a town called Selkirk. The local docks where the place to catch cat fish. On the right side we had a massive concert dock dock to left a dry dock. On any day it was cat fish day! Beautiful fresh channel cats to monster yellow cats. I caught a 47lb yellow on minnows from Frizens store. We ended up 40 lbs of fish fillet!! Best darn fish barbecue ever!!
A day of fishing like that is something that only happens ever so often but that ain't a day to complain about at all
Top video instead of all the UA-cam drama at the moment more of this please well done.
Imagine if he was just getting the same fish over and over again.
OwnyOne
It’s like getting bad rates for a gacha pull except for fishes
Thats why he says see you later buddy
The same dumbass fish, lol
Maybe it's the same Fish all the Times... And the added Bait in his Stomach makes the PB's...
Who else seen his bait fly off n knew it wasn't on there lmao 😂
You mean the slip weight that hits the water too? Lol
Yeah I did!
Funny I’m getting recommended these videos the day after I start fishing
This guy wouldn’t know what a big fish was if it hit him in the face -! Every video huge fish lol
Dude spent his whole day catching the same fish over and over again.
Floating Peaks 😂😂
But he was getting bigger ones each time.
*the fish he catched : its free food!!!
Floating Peaks
Nope, he only caught it once.... different cameras mean different angles...
Lol. Sure does seem like it with the same pose afterward / float editing afterward.
It was super cool to see you save that fish on all that. loose. Line.
he might've been wrapped in that line for you don't know how long thanks again for helping this poor fish!
iagain helping this poor fish!!!!!!!!!!!💕
Use hotdogs if u want to catch bullheads thats what i use
Caught a 30 lb blue on a hotdog lol. Bent that circle hook like it was nothing.
@@MattTheMan22 daaang brotha heck yeaa😁😁💪💪🙏🤙 biggest cat ive caught on a hotdog was like 4lbs
chicken livers or shrimp have given me luck in the past as well
Using large live baits you don’t need to cast them out so far, be gentle with them, keep them moving.
Great day - great video!
Thanks and see und later buddy 😉🎣✌🏼
All these fish are named "buddy"?
Buddy the Bowfin!
All buddies are fish
Remind me to never go to this state to fish I never seen this man catch a big fish
I appreciate you listening to the subscribers
Man catches a bunch of bowfin, says "holy cow thats a nice one" every time, the end
Where I live we call them shoepick
Ive caught one that was 25 inches
Long.
@@yaboicrinklecut2165 holy cow thats a nice one
Here in Alabama we call the bowfin a grinnel. Catch them occasionally while bass fishing. Never seen so many in one place.
Here in SE Arkansas we know when you start catching grinnel/bowfin in the backwater of the Ouachita River it's time to move. Current and oxygen are gone. They put up a good fight.
My dad always calls them mudfish. Or recently hiden bidens
Dude where I work we catch 60 lb flat head cats off baby small bull and channel catfish hooked in the back weekly...it's alot of fun!!! Thanks for the vid...loved it all...def a great vid to watch in morning with coffee
I’d recommend trying some beef hot dogs for catfish :P I’ve had allot of luck with beef hot dogs.
Luncheon brand meat. Wrap it with a piece of braided line and put hook through. Also sliced sandwhich ham.
I caught some pretty nice sized river catfish on corn and homeade bait
Chicken liver or nothin
DJPJLezzGo ya something that has a lot of oil and smell. Chunky canned dog food, worms or fish that sat out to rot a little always worked
The goal was to use bullhead and catch a giant. He used cut up bluegill to catch dogfish. smh
and his non stop big fish was a lie.... dog fish get much bigger than 6 lbs... just saying he didn't catch non stop big fish and he didn't catch a big flathead...
@@Shocke89 but here you are, supporting his channel by falling for those influencer keywords, LMAO.
