 Got him got him got him got him. Come on Come on, baby Don't get off Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the channel. I'm here with my dad dearest the only LFD Man, he drugged me up out of bed this morning said son. I just got to go fishing and I was like, you know what dad That sounds like a good idea and then we get out here and it's 30 degrees winds blowing 20 miles an hour I was like dad. I don't know if that's a good idea But we're about to find out We're about to find out he's got an itch that he needs to scratch and it is called do a little dangling Me and my dad don't get to fish as much as we used to We're both busy bees nowadays, but We're gonna go try to catch some trout I'm gonna try to catch some catfish and possibly some trout and just see whatever is in the river That's gonna bite today. The water's already cold. So maybe the fish aren't gonna be affected, but as you guys can hear through that wind Whoo, it's gonna be a frosty one. The conditions have been tough here lately I actually went out on the water yesterday to a local lake trying to I've been waiting on this lake to Explode because it has sucked so long So I try to go out there like once a week or once every couple weeks just to check on it And it was so rough like all the fish were out in 30 40 feet of water. I tried everything I went up shallow. I went super out deep I went fishing for crappie as well I ended up just catching the one bass on a spoon underneath some docks around a brush pile And they were just the softest softest bites I do love river fishing because it there's just a different look to it and you're also picking out little targets to cast to It's just it reminds me of bass like flipping wise Really picking out those targets where you think the fish are gonna be and then just getting your lure Presenting it the correct speed and depth And presentation to get them to bite so my hands are freezing out from holding this camera. I'm gonna slap on some waiters Let's give it a day Oh, he's gonna break me off in the rocks. Oh my gosh, it's a big old white bass or a hybrid Oh my gosh, it's a big old like it. Yeah, it's like a hybrid. Look at that thing. Oh my goodness There we go folks. That's either that's a straight up white bass I don't think that's a hybrid That's huge Absolutely huge Look at that sucker. I think we know we got to take him home What do you think I mean that is a huge white bass All right, my I think it is a hybrid actually I can see the striations a little different down there Yeah, that's a hybrid my gosh. That is fun. That is fun That was like my fifth cast right there guys. I'm gonna let this fish go hybrids are pretty cool They're awesome actually But what we first noticed me dad rolled down here is there our shad that are literally dying. It's so cold you see him kind of flickering in the water and I was just throwing this little rooster tail What do you guys sent this box of lures into me actually? This is from Rocky port just a bunch of spinners and spoons in there When you saw me river fishing thought thought I could use that so there you go appreciate it Just look at all the birds man Birds are just loving it. Oh, that's a big and that's huge. Oh man This could be a El Carpo See their carp or catfish look at that. It's a carp. You got one popped off this big old carp Look at those little shad y'all Man, if you're a bass or a catfish or anything, that's just candy coming through slow moving almost Dying shad from this cold water Come on Oh, yeah, he's just slowly come all popped off Easy now easy It's the fight Yeah, you just felt like a big old slug out there. Yeah, it's just like Yeah Rock just starts moving. Oh There we go hooked up big old carp. They're so cold they can hardly Kick it out guys these carp are just they're thick. They're thick in here there's Really no avoiding cat. It's a it's a fun bycatch It's really fun. I'd love to Come out here. Oh, are you hooked up? Rock. Oh shoot. I just lost mine. You just came off There he is big and big and big and taking off Taking off. Oh My gosh, he's jumping. He's jumping He is jumping. I got a a blue carp in the mouth in the mouth. He actually ate it y'all That's insane. I actually caught him in the mouth Wow, wow, look at the run This is crazy Wow Come here. Come here. Come here, baby.

It is a carp. Yeah, I'll help you land them since I got the boots. Oh Like trout gone wild see if you can get them get them on the beach here Pin him with my feet. Got him All right Let him go I can do the deeps Awesome. I guess if you had some bread or of the right fly Like just put it drift it like right in front of them. Maybe a really small like jig head fly Something that'll go to the bottom. All right, so Pretty much broke off my catfish rig Took about 30 seconds trying something here a little jig head with some crappie nibbles Let's see if I can I got a bite here a minute ago like right in this current break Kind of out front. That's gonna see if I could dangle Just do a little light dangle presentation Got him. Oh Geez, I don't know what is going on like that fish is just swimming with it. You present it Let it drift natural presentation He's got it goh They're grabbing this thing like every time Godly This is unbelievable. I don't know how many bites I've had. I Guess I got to let him eat it probably not the sharpest hook I've ever used either You know something to do with it fish has got it got him got him. Oh gosh come off Okay y'all coming back. I am banded determined to get one of these fish on the on a jig now. I Brought one extra jig. It's a little bit different Little bit smaller hook that might work, but just have to make this precise Little cast Let it drift They pick it up And then I think I got to let him eat it for a minute not a minute, but you give what I'm saying just just a little bit I could catch one of these carp or buffalo on a Fly or a small jig it's a hard thing to do Got him got him got him got him come on Come on, baby Don't get off. Oh gosh got off God Man, I don't know why like I don't know why I Don't I don't know what it was God That might be my last shot We're not fighting like they were Dang We have it didn't exactly set the whirl on fire and I came very very close To dialing in a carp on a fly or small jig but wanting to do that since last summer So getting close got to refine that a little bit still really good times with dear old dad down at the river Those those times are important to me as I get a little bit older going out with dad You know every trip is Important to go on as you get over it really is. Oh, did I just see snow? There are daggum full lakes flying off y'all. I got to do something real quick. I got to chop up some wood Always doing these wood projects here. I think you guys are are good on the car game I know some of you are leave a comment on Certain flies certain little jigs and things like that. I want to try it I'd like to go back there and some of these other places that have them that are just Texas is full of them and not enough people fish for them So let me know in the comments what you think would be best for a river carp fishing or just site fishing for carp There's a lot of lakes and stuff that they get stacked up in and I want to get better at it because they're a fun fight They really are Something I want to get better at y'all and I'm almost thinking about taking a Course on this like going and doings just like general woodsmanship class Making fire on your own. I think that's an important skill. I mean I know kind of how to do it But I'm going to start practicing More with that. I think it's uh, it's just fun for me. I love wood. I love the woods I love camping Kind of goes along with hunting and fishing everything and I want to make some good little feather stick So I'm going to do some practice here. We haven't got our fire started yet. So I'm going to uh Oh, you got a fire going in there LFD Okay, I'm going to get a fire started out here And I'm going to try to do it with my knife and uh my ferrule rod So we'll see we'll see how it goes not the best conditions with all this wind to get that started, but it's good to practice That's what I got so far y'all Taking the uh taking the knife Running it down and you're basically just trying to make shavings Like little hamster shavings. I want to make those curls I make them really fine and then take a spark to them and then be able to uh Blow that little ember until it lights on fire, but it's super windy right now. Those aren't bad though A nice big chunk to come off here. I can't even get this dang zippo to spark Well, looks like it's so cold and windy Nothing wants to light on fire. Let's see if LFD can get it going with a good old fashioned Big lighter here It's going on it's so cold today dad Nothing wants to work Let me get another one of these. Almost our our fishing poles worked at least Should have got some cedar.
