I wandered my way through the woods and found me a dandy of a spot with some hungry fish in it.

I have missed these kind of videos. Boat vids are cool, but the adventure of the bank and kayak vids are hard to beat.

There will definitely be more as things warm up. I'm pretty excited to hop back into the yak and do a little camping.
Here’s a tip, if you are serious about bank fishing, get you some nice mid high rubber boots if you’re going to be in that kind of terrain.I’ve been bit by a water moccasin while wading along the bank and they saved me cause he stuck to the rubber boot and it didn’t penetrate past the boot.
I stuffed my tackle box and fishing pole in my book bag and loaded my bike in the trunk of my 88 Taurus when I was a student at Perry High school 1998-99. Big creek and Saylorville had the bike trails around the lakes and Polk City bait shop sold laminated fishing maps. So many walleye spots and I was the only one doing it 😂.
What I remember from catfish Dave's bank fishing day is when you got tons of line out you need a good solid hookset, especially when running a clicker.

After this trip, I definitely agree. I know better for next time.
That was a cottonmouth (water moccasin). Glad you didn’t get bit. Enjoy the videos man! Keep up the great work!

It is, but a cute little guy. lol The markings, colors and head shape always give them away. If it had been 72 or more degrees Spencer would have had a lot of trouble, in this temp this guy could bite but it would be considerably slower than when warmer and the snake was to lethargic to do anything else. I have had 100s of run ins with these and timber rattlers, and i prefer running into a rattler or any other snake venomous or not than another one of these. Luckily most of the ones i have ran into were very large. It is the little ones you don't see even when they move. like this one. The bad attitude and willingness to chase ANYTHING! in a cottonmouth is legendary. They are the meanest most bad tempered snake in the east and mid west. The only thing with similar aggression is the Mohave Green rattlesnake, or maybe a sea snake.

Nice change of pace. Thanks as always for sharing brother!! 👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾🙂💯
Really interested your kayak hauling efforts. I’ve had similar ideas, but never took the time to draw something up. Love the channel!
My biggest concern when bank fishing are those nasty vipers. I’ve found some rattlesnakes when bank fishing. I hope you have a great spring time fishing, Spencer!
I dont have an e-bike, but I did outfit my mountain bike with 4 pole holders, saddle bags and a spot for a cooler and I stack my tackle bag on top of it. Nothing that a trip to Home Depot or Lowes won't fix in an afternoon. I'd suggest an aftermarket headlight as well that dosent run off the bikes power. I mounted two lights made by Fenix to my frame and swap batteries when needed.

Sounds like a pretty darn sweet rig. I appreciate the suggestion. I'll check them out for sure.
Dude within the first few seconds seeing you on that e bike I was all pumped up to see what kind of crazy stuff you're going to get yourself into lol can't wait bud .
Oh man, i am green with envy! Im turning 51 this year and those long walks to get to the spots id love to fish on the Patomac River would be a WHOLE LOT easier to get to! Plus theres the C&O canal towpath would make it super easy. Am a farmer and really don't have time to invest in a boat setup. The problem is that those things are super pricey. Love your videos! You've taught me a bunch about catching some nicer channel rats. Keep up the good work Sir! Greetings from SC Pa. 👍👍
There's a very popular Striper spot a couple hours from me. There's a bike path that runs by most of it. All the hardcore guys use bikes to follow the herring as they make their way. The bike of choice is the old lady tricycle. Storage galore and just hop off when you need to cast. It's been a few years, I'm sure it's loaded with E-bikes these days. Game changer
@RiverCertified

The tricycle would definitely have more storage. I'm gonna do a bunch of work to it on sunday I think.
"The bike needs a basket so you can transport skip"! -my wife 😂
That was fun, well, please don't take this the wrong way. Grand father and Great Grand father might be questioning your choices in the E Bike. They're probably going what the h??? Is that our grandson taking the easy way? Still nice cats. 👍

Glad you got a kick outta that. I'm not big into sponsorships unless I think it is something that is actually useful and worth sharing. I am gonna use the crap outta this bike, especially once I get the kayak out.
Bike fishing with a free e-bike- nice! I just got a 500 watt 27.5”ebike a month ago- they’re heavy, but totally a blast. Watch the range while towing, or carrying a lot of gear. Eternal life is free because Christ paid in full at the cross. However, “If you confess with your mouth ‘Jesus is Lord’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved,” (from the Lake of Fire)- Romans 10:9.

Good eye on seeing that snake. Those cotton mouths can be a bit unpredictable! Especially if to step on it! 😬😬😬 Great video once again. You really do love it if you fish in those conditions! But fishing into the wind like this, really puts you into them.😊😊😊 And if desired, you would have had some fine eating too. Thanks for having us along. God bless all here.

I've been seriously thinking about one of these types of bikes. I live right on the Bay of Quinte/Trent River in southern Ontario and there are so many spots I can use one to get to. Save me some gas, plus looks fun. Enjoy.
Good eye seeing that little bugger having a nap in there.. would not have been ideal stepping on him lol.. also great video bud glad you're alive to make it 😂

Spencer …. Just an FYI ….As a former part time Environmental police officer I had training with the states herpetologist. First, all cotton mouths, ( water moccasins ) from birth to adult have a black horizontal stripe by the eyes. Common errors in wrongly identification is the argument over the “yellow” tail. Both snakes may have that appearance. Copperheads also have a distinct “Hershey kisses “ pattern. The obvious sign is a water moccasin will lift its head up and open its mouth completely hence the name . Coppers usually hiss. Obviously both are venomous. I was not able to make an identification of the snake in the video. If I had to guess based on the video, I would lean water moccasin due to the skin not having a clear distinct pattern. Great video !! Except for the snake. Garter snakes scare me lol.
Dude I love my EBIKE! It's for pole holders on it ☺️
@RiverCertified

Good deal. I just ordered some for it. Hopefully they fit.
It might not be the right answer and maybe I just think it helps, but I downsize to 7-8/0 hooks in shallow water. I feel like the smaller gauge wire drives the hook point home a little bit faster for me. I love my 10/0’s but they are for wintertime, bigger baits, and deeper water.
Good show and that looks like a good place to get away from it all

Since you're wading out to cast, I'd place my rod holders closer together, unless you enjoy running wind sprints.

I think your snake might be cottonmouth 5min later you confirmed, lol
I really want one of those but they’re expensive AF. Think there is a knife community that is sponsored by Electric bikes like EDC bike!! 😂 it folds up and one can carry it in their pockets! Or I drank to much😂 Curious what kind of knot do you use to connect your gear to your lines? I’m curious because I watched this dude claim what knot is the strongest. I have always used the polymer knot and never ever did my knots come free. So the polymer knot was second to last as far as coming apart. In may I will have been fishing 54 years. Before Hank Parker invented the polymer knot I did the traditional knot also stayed with never worrying about it failing. So what do you use for your cats!!
That is a cotton mouth my guy! Glad you didn’t step on him, nasty nasty bite on that dude! Potent venom.
