Chris, I am getting so impatient with this unusual weather we are having in Missouri. As soon as warm weather and rains comes I have some exciting new venues for Kayaking. Thanks for the kind words of support and I will be working hard to produce some videos you will like. Thanks again, Jerry

I know how you feel Jerry. The weather has been strange here in kentucky as well. It was 80 degrees for a high Wednesday and I fished yesterday (Thursday) in 30 mph winds and a high of 45. Oh yeah and we had snow Monday!! Never seen it like this that I can remember

I've been snagging a few times and only snagged a couple - we didn't troll - its a hell of a lot of work - especially if you don't have any sonar. That trip you had looks like you all had an awesome set up - looks like a bunch of fun!! Thanks for taking us with you - another great video!!!!

Dewayne, I could never go snagging where they have to manually jerk the hooks repeatedly. At 80 years old trolling is the only way !!!! Anthony's setup is great but too expensive for most people. Anthony however fishes around 300 days a year and many of those days he out takes out a morning and a afternoon group. Thanks for your consistent support of my channel.

awesome video love the commentary and thats the sweetest catfishing boat i think i ever saw tightlines folks!!!

Kevin, this is a fantastic cat fishing boat. It has everything you would ever need and is comfortable to fish out of all year long winter and summer. Thanks for the kind words and thanks for coming along.

Nice Spoonbills. That's an interesting method, I've not see that before for Spoonbill fishing. That's an awesome boat Anthony has there. Thanks for the video and sharing your fishing trip.

Lafoia, Anthony came up with the down-rigger method for snagging several years ago and has perfected the technique. He is able to fill limits for his clients almost every time out. The boat was modified specifically for his techniques of fishing. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for taking time to comment.

Great video...and "MY" first spoonbill trip.😋 Thanks for letting me come along. ☕️

That was truly an adventure...I enjoyed all of it. Hey I finally got a chance to see Baxter again!! The funny thing is that Baxter knows exactly what to do...and when to do it. Nice Catch too. Those motors on the back of his boat look very strong!! Huge Too!!Thank you so much for sharing!!BTW I saw that heater on the boat..I guess its still cold there in MO.

I made the 2 hour trip to LOZ and caught several crappie in 25 MPH wind.... that will be my next video. Been watching your videos, those were huge crappie in your last one. Thanks buddy.

Wow Jerry what a trip that was..That looks like a whole lot of fun my friend...I really like Anthony's rig...You could spend days on the water with that thing...

Elstan, thanks buddy and how is the little gentleman that calls you dad doing? Love your channel, thanks.

Funny, about the time you were making this video I was discussing going down there and doing it this year. Had a friend that lived on the lake, sadly in the interim he has moved to Kansas and seemingly fell off the map. Someday I may have to make the trip even without him. Live in Oregon, so not exactly a hop, skip, and a jump to get there for me. My Ex lives somewhere in the general neighborhood as well, though I'd rather avoid that. lol

Me and my dad were throwing out some jug lines and while we were I said that I had a feeling we were gonna catch something big and sure enough we snagged a 40 or 50 pound spoonbill on accident. First one I had ever seen, but it was out of season so I couldn't eat it and we let it go. Great video though!

Are spoonbills good eating? Will they not hit bait or lures or is snagging them the only way to catch them? Enjoyed your video!

Sue, a few people like to eat them, but not very many. They have large egg sacks but it is illegal to keep them. Snagging is the only legal way to catch them. They swim through the water with their large mouths open and collect zooplankton as a food source. Thanks for the very excellent questions.

Eddie, Anthony had this boat specially built to his specifications. It is a one-of-a-kind boat. I can't remember the name of the company. They work only with specialty production. I know it was quite expensive and took over 9 months to complete. I am sure it wasn't the only boat they were working on at the time but it still seemed like a long time to me. Thanks for watching and asking a great question.

You are misinformed, the gaff is used to prevent injury. They are always hooked in the lower lip and it prevents a lot of flopping that can really cause injury and break the slim on the skin. Thanks for stopping by.
