1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:16,360
Well, it's like I've never done this before.

2
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:38,360
She's a man, I can't freakin' see.

3
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:38,360


4
00:02:38,360 --> 00:03:08,360


5
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:23,360
That was interesting.

6
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:34,200
I could have added about two more feet of concrete on this side, but man, I'm in the

7
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,200
rocks.

8
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:42,200
I hope you didn't film that.

9
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,200
The guys are going, this guy ever launched a boat before?

10
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,200
He's coming down to rocks.

11
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:55,200
There's a lot of scratch marks on those rocks.

12
00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:00,200
At least that started.

13
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,200
More than I can say about other stuff here.

14
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:09,200
I was working on this more.

15
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:17,200
So I was going to replace the carpeting with vinyl flooring two years ago.

16
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:29,200
That's when I hit all the terrain load of sicknesses and just sat out there and I never got it done.

17
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:36,200
So that's why it looks like it needs to do carpeting, because it does.

18
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,200
So here we are.

19
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:43,200
Like I said, I've been working on electrical stuff.

20
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,200
Come on.

21
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:56,200
I ain't going out there without this working.

22
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,200
Do you want me back there?

23
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,200
Yeah.

24
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,200
Yeah, they're not allowed to sit up there.

25
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,200
I don't care, but I don't care.

26
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:15,200
I don't care about the game-warding load.

27
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,200
And Dennis Jameson used to be the game-warding down here.

28
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,200
Years ago.

29
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,200
He probably helped me.

30
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,200
He knew him all the time.

31
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,200
He checked me every day.

32
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,200
One of those deals.

33
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:37,200
He said to me one day he was in the dark and he goes,

34
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,200
I was watching you with a spotty in school, ball day.

35
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:48,200
He says, I think you caught two more fishy were supposed to.

36
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,200
I said, you do.

37
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,200
He said, now Darryl, you know better than that, right?

38
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,200
You're not supposed to be catching fish for other people, right?

39
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,200
Even though you're guiding.

40
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,200
You can't do that.

41
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,200
I said, I know that.

42
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,200
He says, so no matter what we're going to do about it,

43
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,200
I said, well, I know what you're going to do about it.

44
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,200
You're going to prove that I did that, because I did not.

45
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,200
And I said, I have two witnesses that will testify that I didn't.

46
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,200
Well, it sure looked like it to me.

47
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,200
I was watching.

48
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,200
And I said, well, I caught a couple of them.

49
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,200
In fact, we caught 50 fish in there.

50
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,200
Then they kept throwing back.

51
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:35,200
I said, I kept fishing, because it's legal for me to keep fishing

52
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,200
after I have five.

53
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,200
But I was showing them back.

54
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:46,200
Well, I'm giving you a warning.

55
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:52,200
And it was just messing with me, pretty much.

56
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:59,200
So I got a spot down here.

57
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:05,200
When these fish come up in the fall, that they always stayed on.

58
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:12,200
And when we got for water temperature, I'm afraid the luck is probably so warm.

59
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,200
I can't see.

60
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,200
It's a glare.

61
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:20,200
And that's where I was.

62
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,200
So that's where we're going.

63
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,200
Because it's a good staging area.

64
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,200
It's kind of hard to fish.

65
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,200
A lot of guys don't fish it.

66
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:35,200
Because the current's squirrely there.

67
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:40,200
Looks like we got wind going to blow us upstream today.

68
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,200
Man, I can't see that.

69
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,200
I can't get this loose.

70
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,200
I'm going to show up to you.

71
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,200
Oh, put that in there.

72
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:13,200
That's what we did.

73
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,200
63.

74
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,200
That's really warm.

75
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,200
It should be 53 right now.

76
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,200
Yeah.

77
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,200
Well, Lisa's not 73.

78
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,200
That was still 70 up there.

79
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,200
Some of the lakes up north that we were on.

80
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:29,200
Yeah, I get musky guys.

81
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,200
We're really griping.

82
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,200
And all my buddies are seeing this.

83
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,200
The fish aren't going.

84
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,200
Because the water's too warm.

85
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,200
The glass it'll change.

86
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,200
I'm not sure what this guy's doing.

87
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,200
I'm just going to go around in here.

88
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,200
I'm not going in there because I know it's about a foot deep.

89
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:10,200
I was thinking about this spot, you know.

90
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,200
All day, all night.

91
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,200
I want to start on my best spot.

92
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,200
That's usually a bad spot.

93
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,200
And then I'd catch you there.

94
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,200
And then if you don't, it's like, oh, man.

95
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,200
You know.

96
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,200
No.

97
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,200
No, where we going?

98
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:40,200
One thing about it is a good scenery.

99
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:45,200
I was talking to my neighbor and he goes,

100
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,200
this is how many fish you got to catch.

101
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,200
I said, there's sort of a few.

102
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,200
You just need a few fish.

103
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,200
He said, well, you can do that.

104
00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:03,200
I go, I guess I could pretend I'm guiding today.

105
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,200
That would help make me warm down and settle.

106
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,200
It doesn't help when the camera guy goes,

107
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,200
well, we just want to get some shots of you fishing.

108
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,200
I'll catch you the fishing day, big deal.

109
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,200
The producer goes, yeah, it is.

110
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,200
It's a real big deal.

111
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:31,200
You know, I won that Old Style National Wildlife Tournament here in 1988.

112
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:41,200
I won a $7,000 boat, which was a lot of money back then.

113
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,200
And I just bought it.

114
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,200
So I sold it right away.

115
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,200
Some guy offered, he said, I'll give you $7,000 for a second.

116
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,200
Okay.

117
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:56,200
I don't have to get the rest of the summer.

118
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,200
This is what they call the High Lines.

119
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:06,200
When you hear people talking about a fish going by the High Lines,

120
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,200
obviously there are no actors, nobody down here.

121
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,200
But we'll see.

122
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,200
You know, fish got it moved in last night with the cold.

123
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,200
They feel that temperature drop.

124
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:25,200
The only bad thing is there's no, there's not a lot of current.

125
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,200
They're not running much water to draw them out of Lake Wisconsin.

126
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:34,200
But I've caught them there all summer.

127
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:39,200
So normally I'm fishing 17 feet with the lower water,

128
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:47,200
it's probably going to be more like 14, 15.

129
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,200
We're going to hit either side of this puppy.

130
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:55,200
It's going to find where the break is here.

131
00:11:55,200 --> 00:12:00,200
Oh, I should have done that.

132
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:08,200
What the heck?

133
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,200
All right.

134
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:16,200
Well, I know where I'm at here, so.

135
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,200
There's absolutely no current here.

136
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,200
Wow.

137
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,200
Usually you're racing down through here.

138
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:29,200
I got all too heavy a jig's on.

139
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,200
All right.

140
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,200
Let's see what we got here.

141
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:54,200
Awesome.

142
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,200
Okay.

143
00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:01,200
So.

144
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,200
So how good a jig fisherman do you think you are?

145
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,200
Pretty good?

146
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:13,200
Well, we primarily drink from jigs.

147
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,200
Sure.

148
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,200
Okay.

149
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,200
Well, we're shallow enough here.

150
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:24,200
I think this will work for you to find.

151
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,200
I'll show you.

152
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:30,200
We need to show you this once, right?

153
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,200
Through the end of the mouth, side of the mouth,

154
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,200
and just through the back of the head.

155
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,200
Now, if you want, because there's no current to speak of,

156
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:43,200
usually what we do with our dirty algae bloom

157
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,200
is we drift this.

158
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,200
There's some snakes here,

159
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,200
and just vertical jig it.

160
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,200
And knowing your land goes slack,

161
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,200
you know, it's on the bottom.

162
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,200
You've got a pretty light jig on here.

163
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,200
If you want something heavier, you can do that.

164
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,200
So you can do that if you want,

165
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:06,200
or you can cast and retrieve it if you want.

166
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,200
It's entirely up to you.

167
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,200
We're probably going to make several passes through here.

168
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,200
So, you can just jig it.

169
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,200
Kind of like that.

170
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,200
Let it drop.

171
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,200
Swim it.

172
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:20,200
Let it drop.

173
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,200
The land goes slack.

174
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:23,200
Swim it.

175
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,200
Let it drop.

176
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:29,200
So, that should work for you.

177
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,200
If, like I said,

178
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,200
if you're not feeling the bottom good,

179
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,200
and other times, you know,

180
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,200
I thump it to where they'll just smoke it.

181
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,200
And then other times,

182
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,200
they'll just be hanging there.

183
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:49,200
Soggers especially.

184
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,200
Which I'm going to ask you to do.

185
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,200
Soggers count.

186
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:57,200
We can make them count.

187
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,200
They're just a cousin of a walleye, right?

188
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,200
I don't like how slow this current is here.

189
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,200
Well, we're coming right down it.

190
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,200
Perfect.

191
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:16,200
This runs this water as we can fish this pretty aggressively.

192
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,200
I mean, these fish ought to be,

193
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,200
they see something come through the water.

194
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:25,200
They ought to just hammer it.

195
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,200
They just want to get a little deeper.

196
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:33,200
11 feet here.

197
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:41,200
Now, well, this is normally considerably deeper than this.

198
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,200
It's ridiculous that the current,

199
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,200
the wind is actually blowing us against the current,

200
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:54,200
which just don't ever happen.

201
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:58,200
Get 12.

202
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,200
So as we get deeper, it's going to be

203
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,200
a little,

204
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:11,200
I'm eyeballing those geese thinking about my goose hunting.

205
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,200
As we get deeper,

206
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,200
we may have to go in a little heavier jig.

207
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,200
We're going to make sure that I learned 14,

208
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:26,200
that you just let out more line.

209
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,200
Oh, come on.

210
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,200
This is the spot.

211
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:44,200
This is the spot.

212
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,200
I mean, there's not even a current breakdown here.

213
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,200
It's just more like a flat, you know.

214
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,200
Usually it's just rolling over here.

215
00:16:55,200 --> 00:17:01,200
We get down a little with my blind.

216
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:02,200
Okay.

217
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,200
Yeah.

218
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,200
When we get down here a little bit further,

219
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,200
you see that buoy in the middle of the river?

220
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,200
That's a rock.

221
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:15,200
It starts to turn in a rock down there.

222
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:24,200
They may be on the rocks, but that's usually later.

223
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:30,200
We may have to go up toward the dam or where there's more current.

224
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,200
This is a huge staging area.

225
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:39,200
I mean, almost every fish that moves up the river stops here.

226
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:44,200
How long have you been fishing this stretch?

227
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:49,200
Since 1982,

228
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:54,200
I started guiding here.

229
00:17:54,200 --> 00:18:10,200
Okay, so let me just nut.

230
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:14,200
Don't tap me.

231
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:21,200
I was guiding a couple of guys down on the Fox River one fall early November.

232
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,200
Might have been late October.

233
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:31,200
And one of the guys goes, there's a goose over there on the shore.

234
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:32,200
I go where?

235
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,200
It's just right there.

236
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,200
Well, I figured it wasn't a place a goose should be,

237
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,200
so I figured it was wounded, you know.

238
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,200
So I eased up.

239
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,200
Where are you guys? They're not out here.

240
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:55,200
Not yet. I'm not seeing anything on the graph either.

241
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,200
I got to get that bomb on the graph working.

242
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:04,200
That's the one we're taking up north.

243
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,200
I don't know why this is always works.

244
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,200
I don't know why it's not working today,

245
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:16,200
but it isn't like it's, I don't know,

246
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:23,200
it's wet or something.

247
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:28,200
Oh, come on.

248
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:45,200
It's just having hit those rocks yet.

249
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:50,200
That's the...

250
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:55,200
that might help.

251
00:19:55,200 --> 00:20:00,200
So very little currents.

252
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,200
14.

253
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,200
15 feet.

254
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,200
Boy, they should be here.

255
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:23,200
This would normally be or 17 feet.

256
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:48,200
I'm going to screw this across here.

257
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:55,200
Well, they weren't off the brake, so I'm going to move this

258
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,200
a little bit here.

259
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,200
Okay.

260
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:10,200
It should be nice to look at that graph and see some fish.

261
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:18,200
This one is over here.

262
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:35,200
I said, if I find an area with some fish,

263
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,200
I'll tell you where they are.

264
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,200
You can come and fish them.

265
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:45,200
I said, we're hoping to catch a few fish.

266
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:50,200
Okay, so that's really shallow over there.

267
00:21:50,200 --> 00:22:01,200
I think I want to keep us out of that.

268
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,200
Now you can kind of see the rock on the shore there.

269
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,200
Then it comes all the way out to that buoy.

270
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:14,200
Almost like a wing dam.

271
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,200
That's where they put the ducks in right there.

272
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,200
I wonder if they didn't put a wing dam in there.

273
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,200
See, right now I'm saying to myself, I'm glad I'm not

274
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,200
guiding out here.

275
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:52,200
Well, I know there's walleyes in there all summer.

276
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,200
There's a trip.

277
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,200
Come down here in the summer when they're doing water ski

278
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,200
shows and they're running the ducks up and down through

279
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,200
here and somebody wants to hire you to fish.

280
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,200
I'm like, oh man.

281
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:14,200
I could always try to not do that.

282
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,200
I didn't guide much in the summer anyway when I was

283
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,200
turning with fish and it just didn't have time.

284
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:24,200
Wasn't here.

285
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,200
Fall.

286
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:27,200
Spring.

287
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:34,200
Now we're right on the break now again.

288
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,200
There's some, finally, there's some fish right there.

289
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,200
No, they can't fish.

290
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:56,200
Right off the edge, just like they're supposed to be.

291
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:57,200
Huh.

292
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,200
I wonder what those were.

293
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,200
Whatever they were, they don't eat minnows.

294
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,200
Evidently, you know.

295
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,200
Usually you see four fish in a spot.

296
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,200
Water was going to bite.

297
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:23,200
Oh, there was a little tap.

298
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:32,200
I am one of the eight inch saugars.

299
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:40,200
Hmm.

300
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,200
But it couldn't be better on this spot here.

301
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,200
Little bird.

302
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:53,200
Well.

303
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:04,200
It all looks tasty.

304
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,200
Notice we picked up speed a little now.

305
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:08,200
It's just good.

306
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:13,200
It's got a little more current.

307
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:20,200
There we go.

308
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:45,200
Oh, there he was.

309
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:51,200
Missed that one.

310
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,200
Yeah.

311
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,200
I don't know.

312
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,200
There's no mark on the middle tooth barks or anything.

313
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:06,200
It's just supposed to be.

314
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:13,200
We got some fish down here.

315
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:23,200
Come on, guys.

316
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:32,200
It didn't feel like a decent fish.

317
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,200
Small.

318
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:47,200
This little water is going to keep us from going downstream any further.

319
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,200
Because it gets all boulders and rocks down there.

320
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:55,200
In the spring, in the high water, you can motor over them.

321
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:11,200
Oh, there he is.

322
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,200
These guys are telling the guys over there.

323
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:36,200
They're telling those guys don't get too close to that boat.

324
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:43,200
They got me out of a gun in there.

325
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:50,200
All right.

326
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,200
Yeah.

327
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,200
Miss worked this a little more.

328
00:27:55,200 --> 00:28:00,200
We got it all day, right?

329
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:05,200
We got it all day.

330
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,200
We used to mark and more stuff down here.

331
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:32,200
From when we first started.

332
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:42,200
I'm not sure what kind of fish they are, but...

333
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:52,200
There's no low, low, low, low.

334
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:59,200
There's no low, low, low, low.

335
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:04,200
Got them in more current, slowing current.

336
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:26,200
We'll be down there.

337
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:31,200
It's only perfect of this fish in it.

338
00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:01,200
63 degrees.

339
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:07,200
We're making that noise.

340
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,200
You are.

341
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:15,200
That would be crazy.

342
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,200
Yeah, we can work down that thing perfect.

343
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:24,200
Well, okay.

344
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:29,200
There's a real nice fish back there.

345
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,200
There's just not a lot of fish here, guys.

346
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:51,200
We're seeing one in here and one there, but...

347
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,200
Take us in this inside cut here.

348
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:08,200
We'll take it up, bring it back so we get...

349
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,200
Let's see some fish here.

350
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,200
Yeah, look at that graph in front.

351
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:18,200
I mean, that's as bare as a bear can get.

352
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,200
It starts dropping off again towards shore here.

353
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,200
I thought it'd bring us inside of this.

354
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:30,200
Sometimes they do cut into these shoreline cuts.

355
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:35,200
We're in the spring and fall.

356
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:42,200
It's only behind us there was some fish, so...

357
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:47,200
There's some here too, right off of this break.

358
00:31:48,200 --> 00:32:11,200
Well, there's a crazy lot of bait fish right here.

359
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:16,200
Look in the bottom there.

360
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:34,200
Ooh, rock.

361
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,200
My first rock bite.

362
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,200
I knew it didn't feel right.

363
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:45,200
I didn't like that jig anyway.

364
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,200
I felt that thing go right in between two rocks.

365
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:55,200
I'm getting that out.

366
00:32:55,200 --> 00:33:00,200
Welcome to the Wisconsin River.

367
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:05,200
Yeah.

368
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:15,200
I only got five other rods here I could use, but...

369
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:24,200
I kind of like this one.

370
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:34,200
Ooh, ooh.

371
00:33:54,200 --> 00:34:13,200
He's a champ.

372
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,200
Oh, here we got a nice sunny day.

373
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,200
Oh, beautiful.

374
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:21,200
These guys...

375
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,200
A little bit of color in the trees.

376
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,200
Tucker grabbed it and let it go on it.

377
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,200
That ain't...

378
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,200
That's got to be a sheep pet or something.

379
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,200
Well, I just don't do that.

380
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:39,200
Especially vertical jiggle when they hit it, they thump it.

381
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,200
Look how he rotted that is.

382
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,200
And how high is he rotted?

383
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,200
I mean, how high does he...

384
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:53,200
He's insane.

385
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,200
That is insane.

386
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,200
I'm sure you've seen some of the photos from the upper delts,

387
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,200
like all those caves and caverns back there.

388
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:01,200
Yeah.

389
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,200
Like the H.H. Bennett stuff.

390
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:15,200
That's crazy.

391
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:22,200
Okay, I'm gonna get us. I'm gonna move us.

392
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,200
Yeah.

393
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:36,200
For a wee...

394
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,200
For a wee crash in on a rock pile.

395
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:43,200
Looks like a guy in a boat.

396
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,200
It shows how good the bait is by the dam.

397
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,200
Yeah, that guy's guiding.

398
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,200
The guy has been a wife.

399
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,200
Looks like...

400
00:35:53,200 --> 00:36:00,200
I should have gone tell him there's no fish there.

401
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,200
Well, if there were anything like me,

402
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:06,200
they'd be trying to get away from the crowd, you know?

403
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,200
Uh...

404
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:22,200
Well, I'm actually on the Wisconsin River trying to catch something beside the sheephead.

405
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:26,200
At the delts.

406
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:33,200
I don't know.

407
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,200
I call the state guard.

408
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,200
We just need to find out our car.

409
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,200
The state guard, we just need to go right there.

410
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,200
We just need to find the grass there.

411
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:44,200
Okay.

412
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,200
But I didn't have any ever ready to go look for a rock and call,

413
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:48,200
but you could knock it in.

414
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,200
Or you could go at all.

415
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,200
And the nature of the land is there.

416
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,200
You can call it in.

417
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:56,200
Right, sir.

418
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:57,200
Sir.

419
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:58,200
All right.

420
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,200
Thank you.

421
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,200
I think the ramp is just together.

422
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,200
I think it's just for yourself.

423
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,200
I think I'm on the campus.

424
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,200
There you go.

425
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:07,200
There you go.

426
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:08,200
Yep.

427
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:09,200
Oh, I need to go over to the center now.

428
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:10,200
No.

429
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,200
I call the center now together.

430
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,200
If I am dancing in a bar,

431
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:15,200
I'm off.

432
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:16,200
We're all on Friday.

433
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,200
I'm starting to hear one.

434
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:18,200
Uh...

435
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,200
I'm dancing in a bar when we go.

436
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,200
Uh...

437
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,200
Okay.

438
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,200
I think your letter is not true.

439
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,200
No, I'm working all day tomorrow.

440
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,200
Because I want to get everything done before I head up north.

441
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:32,200
So...

442
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:45,200
Five feet and another six feet.

443
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,200
Yeah.

444
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:53,200
Yes?

445
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:02,200
Right.

446
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,200
Well, what we really need is some rock.

447
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,200
Some big rock.

448
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,200
Or something to keep it from washing out.

449
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:11,200
Is this...

450
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:12,200
We just got a thing in through.

451
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:13,200
I have an inspection.

452
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:14,200
I have an inspection.

453
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:15,200
I have an inspection.

454
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:16,200
I have an inspection.

455
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:17,200
It was the AMP.

456
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:18,200
Right.

457
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,200
And they've already pre-infected.

458
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,200
Because it needs to be done.

459
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:21,200
Yeah.

460
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,200
I've got to last this wall.

461
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:24,200
Okay.

462
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:25,200
Uh...

463
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,200
Because roughly...

464
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:28,200
Uh...

465
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:29,200
Uh...

466
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:30,200
Uh...

467
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:31,200
Uh...

468
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:32,200
Uh...

469
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:33,200
Uh...

470
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:34,200
Right.

471
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,200
I mean, any time he gets, you know, he wants...

472
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:37,200
That he was good for him.

473
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:38,200
Because I plan...

474
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,200
Yeah.

475
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:40,200
Yeah.

476
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:41,200
Yeah.

477
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:49,200
I'm trying to finish up a PBS special.

478
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:55,200
Well, we're actually trying to finish up a PBS special.

479
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,200
And, uh...

480
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,200
And it's not...

481
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,200
Everything's been great so far.

482
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:03,200
Lots of wildlife.

483
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,200
Beautiful blue sky.

484
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:06,200
Colors.

485
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:07,200
Trees.

486
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:08,200
Uh...

487
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:12,200
No people to speak of.

488
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:13,200
Yeah.

489
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,200
The only thing we need now is some fish.

490
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,200
He hit that right on the head.

491
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:22,200
Yeah.

492
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:23,200
There's no...

493
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:24,200
There's probably no fish.

494
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,200
There's probably no fish.

495
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:26,200
That's why there's no people.

496
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:27,200
Yeah.

497
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:28,200
Yeah.

498
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:29,200
Yeah.

499
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,200
Hey.

500
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:35,200
Well, part of all day.

501
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:39,200
Got a DNR.

502
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,200
There we go.

503
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:42,200
Got a...

504
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,200
Yeah, that was definitely a guide.

505
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,200
He went down, went around a corner.

506
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:52,200
Probably graphed it, looked around, said there's nothing there to see good.

507
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,200
They shouldn't fish or, if they didn't, they'd fish it really fast.

508
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,200
Didn't get bitten.

509
00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,200
He went all the way up to the boat launch.

510
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,200
I knew I'd see what's coming up in just a couple seconds.

511
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,200
I know I'd just see what's coming up.

512
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:09,200
Well, it's that time of year, guys.

513
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:14,200
You know, on the normal fall, like, back when I got in here, this would have been fine.

514
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,200
This would have been good.

515
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,200
He got there.

516
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:29,200
Private beach.

517
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,200
Yeah.

518
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:51,200
Yeah, yeah, this is really, yeah.

519
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,200
Really telling you how to fish in this upriver.

520
00:40:55,200 --> 00:41:03,200
When you see everybody coming down at 11.30 down stream.

521
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:09,200
Well, if they see it, it'd be nice.

522
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:13,200
So right next to this, this river's edge resort.

523
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:17,200
So I guided out of there, and there's your boat landing.

524
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:24,200
And it got so crazy when this got so popular that that was the only ramp.

525
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,200
And it was private.

526
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:35,200
And then this guy next door, Cedar Lodge, he put a ramp in because he could charge people a lot.

527
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,200
And so this public launch was not here.

528
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,200
It was just those two private launches.

529
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,200
And people always grabbed because they charged so much.

530
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,200
It's a delve.

531
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,200
Look at the fish in here, guys.

532
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:56,200
16, 17 feet.

533
00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:02,200
This is one of the spots I always would like to drift.

534
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:06,200
Wow.

535
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:13,200
I'm not seeing their walleyes, but we better fish them.

536
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,200
I'm still marking them.

537
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,200
As long as I'm marking them, I'm going to keep going.

538
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:25,200
I will drift her back.

539
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:26,200
OK.

540
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,200
Let's sketch them right here.

541
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,200
Let's do it.

542
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,200
Right here.

543
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:59,200
We are in mega windstone on here.

544
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:08,200
It's stronger than the current.

545
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:12,200
I'm going to first drift through here.

546
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:13,200
That's all right.

547
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:24,200
That's a work.

548
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:32,200
Holy moly.

549
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:42,200
I have some wind.

550
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:51,200
Packing on my minnow down there is a little guy.

551
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:58,200
Tap, tap, tap.

552
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,200
Some of those fish weren't little.

553
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,200
They are pretty good looking size fish.

554
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:13,200
I'm going to get a centider.

555
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:14,200
There is actually a current here.

556
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:20,200
You just can't tell that the wind is pushing us back.

557
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:25,200
Come on, bite that.

558
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:32,200
That's got to be sheep head.

559
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,200
Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.

560
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:41,200
The sheep are trying to get that minnow in a little tiny mouth.

561
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:56,200
Oh, man, did he drill that.

562
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,200
I don't know if that was a sheep head.

563
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,200
He got the minnow.

564
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:06,200
That fish is hammered that minnow.

565
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,200
That's more like it.

566
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,200
It wasn't much like a walleye plate.

567
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:16,200
I don't know what it was, but man, he drill that.

568
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:22,200
Well, it's a really good bite I've had.

569
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:27,200
They just pasted it.

570
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:35,200
I thought I had that fish.

571
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:40,200
Oh, yeah, you fish were those fishy good bites.

572
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:50,200
I might down below there.

573
00:45:50,200 --> 00:46:03,200
That could have been a little smally too.

574
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,200
Looks like the guide's done for the day.

575
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:13,200
Pulling his boat out.

576
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,200
Rivers, Edgies, the right bike.

577
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:18,200
I tell stories about that place.

578
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:24,200
I'm not going, but I could.

579
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:31,200
Oh, that was a different person on those days.

580
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:46,200
A lot younger.

581
00:46:46,200 --> 00:47:15,200
Oh, man, who's are those?

582
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:20,200
A little walleye or a sauger, because there ain't a mark on that minnow.

583
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:29,200
But whatever grabbed that other minnow ripped it off of there, real well.

584
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:58,200
This would have more like a sheep bite.

585
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:06,200
Right tight to that 12 to 15 foot break.

586
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:11,200
That was supposed to be.

587
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:15,200
All right.

588
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:21,200
I think it's worth it to make another drift through there.

589
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:36,200
I don't think it was a sheep, as hard as it hit.

590
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:42,200
Look at them down here.

591
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:49,200
Those are biters right on the bottom like that.

592
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:57,200
Look at them there.

593
00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:04,200
Big wad of fish right there.

594
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:07,200
I try to keep us in it.

595
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:18,200
I think I can fish this cleaner by facing the shore with this wind.

596
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:24,200
Let's see.

597
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:35,200
Maybe.

598
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:58,200
It's definitely the best group of fish I've seen.

599
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:13,200
I was just as much current.

600
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:42,200
I'm just as much current as I've seen.

601
00:50:42,200 --> 00:51:07,200
A rock bite.

602
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:25,200
A jack is up here.

603
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:50,200
A jack is up here.

604
00:51:50,200 --> 00:52:13,200
A jack is up here.

605
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:33,200
A jack is up here.

606
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:45,200
You get her out.

607
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:57,200
Well, that duck opened up that spot.

608
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:04,200
You know, that don't bother those fish.

609
00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:16,200
You may have to go across and make a drift through there.

610
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:24,200
Here we go, Zach. This is a drift.

611
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:28,200
I think we're out of here.

612
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:33,200
The wind died down.

613
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:40,200
The perfect wind drift was like that.

614
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:47,200
Something hanging on there wasn't a fish.

615
00:53:47,200 --> 00:54:15,200
Oh, you got the big rock.

616
00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:30,200
A jack is up here.

617
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:56,200
Get you above it, if I can.

618
00:54:56,200 --> 00:55:00,200
Perfect.

619
00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:13,200
I got a lot of rock before you get the rock, but it don't always happen.

620
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:18,200
Here we go.

621
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:22,200
How long dies where are you?

622
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:27,200
What happened to that fish that hammered me?

623
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:52,200
I came back.

624
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:56,200
There he is.

625
00:55:56,200 --> 00:56:00,200
What is that?

626
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:05,200
How do they grab it and let go?

627
00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:16,200
There he is.

628
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:37,200
Little guys.

629
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:47,200
There's a little guys.

630
00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:20,200
There he is.

631
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:33,200
There he is.

632
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:58,200
There he is.

633
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:23,200
That was a better fish.

634
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:28,200
Definitely a better fish.

635
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:35,200
What is going on here?

636
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:40,200
Did that rod tip bend?

637
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:43,200
I might say that was a walleye.

638
00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:50,200
It could have been a sheepie.

639
00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:54,200
I don't know if that fish would come back.

640
00:58:54,200 --> 00:59:04,200
I think I might have turned him inside out with a hook set.

641
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:28,200
Kind of in the same area I had that bite before.

642
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:33,200
I hated that when it happened in a tournament.

643
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:43,200
Especially when the bite isn't good and every bite is so important.

644
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:14,200
Now we are out of the zone.

645
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:21,200
There he is.

646
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:29,200
Look like it.

647
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:37,200
There is one coming up.

648
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:43,200
What is that?

649
01:00:43,200 --> 01:01:00,200
I don't know what it is.

650
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,200
Big cat.

651
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:19,200
I'm going to have a horse.

652
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:26,200
Why do they grab this reel?

653
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:33,200
That's a cat.

654
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:38,200
I'm sure it's a cat, probably a big flathead.

655
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:46,200
All of the fish we are marking as a cat.

656
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:51,200
A whiskered walleye.

657
01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:56,200
It is a flathead.

658
01:01:56,200 --> 01:02:06,200
Man, run.

659
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:09,200
Look at that.

660
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:14,200
They call it a whiskered walleye.

661
01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:19,200
People at officials eat them, say they are better taste than walleyes.

662
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:24,200
Seriously.

663
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:27,200
It's a nice little cat.

664
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:33,200
But it's not what we are looking for.

665
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:37,200
There you go.

666
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:46,200
Now, for what it's worth, flatheads and walleyes do hang out together.

667
01:02:46,200 --> 01:03:00,200
We may want to fish this past another drift.

668
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:02,200
Hey, it's the right thing.

669
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:04,200
It's a sauger.

670
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:08,200
Look at this.

671
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,200
I'm telling you.

672
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:15,200
Fish located don't lie.

673
01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:20,200
Give us our biology.

674
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,200
It's a really nice sauger.

675
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:26,200
You can tell the difference with seal spots on the dorsal fin.

676
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:29,200
Now, that tells you it's a sauger instead of a walleye.

677
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:30,200
Plus it's brown.

678
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,200
It's a green.

679
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:38,200
I know some walleyes are brown in real dark water, but they are always that color.

680
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:41,200
And then you don't see the big white tip on the tail.

681
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:42,200
Like a walleye has.

682
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:46,200
Just have a little sliver of white.

683
01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:48,200
That's a pretty sauger.

684
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,200
That's actually a nice sauger.

685
01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:55,200
They do get four or five pounds in here.

686
01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:56,200
Not a lot of them.

687
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:59,200
Usually two or three pounders are a really good one.

688
01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:00,200
That's a good one.

689
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:01,200
That's a keeper.

690
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:02,200
Maybe.

691
01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:05,200
Let's find out.

692
01:04:05,200 --> 01:04:10,200
They've got to be 15 inches down here.

693
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:12,200
Not that we're going to keep it.

694
01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:18,200
See if we caught all the eagle size fish today.

695
01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:23,200
Somewhere in my basement here.

696
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:30,200
Yeah, I bet he's 14 and a half.

697
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:32,200
No, he's just 14.

698
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:34,200
Still, nice sauger.

699
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:41,200
So in the past, they didn't have a size number on these fish in here.

700
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:48,200
And of course, with all the fishing pressure, you think about, there was nothing to catch

701
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:52,200
15 of these three guys who wanted to catch 15.

702
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:56,200
Well, they got smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller.

703
01:04:56,200 --> 01:05:01,200
And the guides and the people here said, you know, there's a hammer in this resource.

704
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:04,200
There's 50 incense on walleyes.

705
01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:10,200
And now it's 15 to 20 inches, but only three.

706
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:15,200
And then the next one you can keep has to be over 28.

707
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:18,200
So you're looking at a 9.10 pound fish.

708
01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:19,200
Trophy fish.

709
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,200
So that's good.

710
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:26,200
So there aren't a lot of walleyes in that four or five or six pound range.

711
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:30,200
Another couple of weeks they'll be up here.

712
01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:32,200
But hey, that's a nice one.

713
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:37,200
Let it go.

714
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:38,200
All right.

715
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:39,200
You know what?

716
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:41,200
We better drift that again.

717
01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:44,200
Oh, I got one on here.

718
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:47,200
What's this little guy?

719
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:48,200
Are you here?

720
01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:53,200
Another sauger.

721
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:55,200
They're long, you know.

722
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:58,200
They're not as chunky as a walleye.

723
01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:00,200
Real long fish.

724
01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:03,200
But yeah, they're fun to catch.

725
01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:08,200
I mean, they're more aggressive.

726
01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:13,200
Yeah, in tournament competition we fish a lot of real dirty stained water saugars like

727
01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:14,200
that.

728
01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:15,200
Yeah.

729
01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:16,200
Very cool.

730
01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:17,200
That's a good healthy man.

731
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:19,200
It's good to see these in here.

732
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:24,200
Good future of fishing in this river.

733
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:26,200
Want to make another pass?

734
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:28,200
Sure.

735
01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:31,200
I thought you might.

736
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:32,200
I sure do.

737
01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:33,200
Something to do a lot of that.

738
01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:37,200
Something to do out of the boat.

739
01:06:37,200 --> 01:06:39,200
What the hell is that?

740
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,200
Oh jeez, you got it back?

741
01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:42,200
Yeah.

742
01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:43,200
Well, is that lucky?

743
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:44,200
They're real embarrassed.

744
01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:46,200
They're not going to stay.

745
01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:48,200
They're out of here.

746
01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:51,200
We don't want to be around any day.

747
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,200
Oh, there's the...

748
01:06:54,200 --> 01:06:56,200
Especially down there.

749
01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:59,200
You know, we fished this depth.

750
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:01,200
We didn't mark many fish there.

751
01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:04,200
Oh, what's this big attraction here?

752
01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:09,200
There's quite a few here.

753
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:14,200
I mean, even this time when I'm ordered back up and marked several.

754
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:19,200
Yeah.

755
01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:26,200
Well, I said a bite there, but didn't take it.

756
01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:27,200
Did you see David?

757
01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:28,200
Yeah.

758
01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:29,200
Yeah, I caught the end of it.

759
01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:30,200
It was huge.

760
01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:34,200
Yeah.

761
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:38,200
Rex.

762
01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:39,200
Then there's a hybrid.

763
01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:41,200
A saw guy.

764
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:44,200
You know, across...

765
01:07:44,200 --> 01:07:46,200
Where they cross.

766
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:50,200
Real common out in the prairie states.

767
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:53,200
The reservoirs out there.

768
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:59,200
So I'm a professional walleye trail championship on 9-11.

769
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:04,200
After the Twin Tower thing.

770
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:09,200
Actually, it happened while we were out there pre-fishing the last day.

771
01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:11,200
And...

772
01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:18,200
No way.

773
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:21,200
I'm looking at my locator.

774
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:24,200
It says there's no rocks down there.

775
01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:27,200
Good job.

776
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:31,200
Good job finding a rock.

777
01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:45,200
That is nice.

778
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:47,200
Got it. Got it.

779
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:52,200
I figured that land was probably getting pretty freed.

780
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:54,200
Okay.

781
01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:56,200
Boy.

782
01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:58,200
Look out now.

783
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,200
I'm giving you one of my quarter outs.

784
01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:15,200
Sager.

785
01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:18,200
He's a shame.

786
01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:21,200
Yeah.

787
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:23,200
Another saw guy.

788
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:25,200
You know, he wasn't letting go either when he decided to hit.

789
01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:27,200
He just smacked it.

790
01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,200
Ooh.

791
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:32,200
Nice.

792
01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:37,200
Our first tow in the year was Spring Valley, Illinois,

793
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:39,200
on the Illinois River.

794
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:43,200
Which was all usually a flood in March.

795
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:46,200
They had big sawgers in there.

796
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:49,200
Four or five pounders, lots of them.

797
01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:53,200
And we partnered with the DNR

798
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:59,200
to when the females we caught,

799
01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:03,200
the DNR would strip the eggs from them

800
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:08,200
and take them to a hatchery for restocking.

801
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:09,200
Anyway.

802
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:11,200
And now it's just starting to shallow up.

803
01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:15,200
Seems like you just get past that rock.

804
01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:18,200
And that's kind of the end of it.

805
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:21,200
I don't know.

806
01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,200
But we just have to see.

807
01:10:53,200 --> 01:11:08,200
you know and that thing is full of people you think every person in America would

808
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:18,200
have done this by now wouldn't you I mean it don't matter I tell you about the

809
01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:26,000
guy that took over my guiding out here and still little tiny boats right

810
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:32,520
there on shore just you got the same boats he did back then and he would he's

811
01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:37,680
kind of a big guy and he was so nervous you know he was a good fisherman a good

812
01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:44,020
guy so he would put two customers on little boats and himself and a little

813
01:11:44,020 --> 01:11:48,860
whatever they are ten or fifteen or two or mortars he would start right at

814
01:11:48,860 --> 01:11:53,140
this point and do what's this what we're doing this is how we guided like those

815
01:11:53,140 --> 01:11:58,060
in this whole first year he never left the the site of the resort probably in

816
01:11:58,060 --> 01:12:02,740
case the motors broke down you know now I might come out and there he'd be you

817
01:12:02,740 --> 01:12:09,460
know I'd be out here fit yeah yeah now we're getting some saugars how bad

818
01:12:09,460 --> 01:12:19,340
yeah eventually he had a nice big old Ranger 200 on it not that you need

819
01:12:19,340 --> 01:12:33,780
that here but you know that was vast prone my promotion manager there always

820
01:12:33,780 --> 01:12:38,540
what she did say was well you both right here we picked up sooner than later she

821
01:12:38,540 --> 01:12:46,900
said but she said that when I okay yeah I get it so we've got a really decent

822
01:12:46,900 --> 01:12:57,980
sand bank over here try go up to the point just like we did here well see

823
01:12:57,980 --> 01:13:15,660
where the break is there follow it down be nice to it's a few more fish so that

824
01:13:15,660 --> 01:13:28,660
was 2009 winter of and so I've had this sports and some it seems better days

825
01:13:28,660 --> 01:13:37,180
doesn't leak more runs like a dream or stroke it was a perfect river boat for

826
01:13:37,180 --> 01:13:42,380
me I did some guiding out of it I went a bagel which I wasn't real comfortable

827
01:13:43,380 --> 01:13:49,820
then I kind of wish they had my big boat but most days out there you know just

828
01:13:49,820 --> 01:13:55,260
don't be stupid you know don't go out there when it's just horribly windy this

829
01:13:55,260 --> 01:14:00,460
can handle three-foot ways pretty nice so that's and that's all I need I'll

830
01:14:00,460 --> 01:14:05,180
fish big waters you know I'm fishing the Great Lakes with it so yeah it was

831
01:14:05,180 --> 01:14:12,800
really a really a great gift for me to have a brand new boat and had zero

832
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:18,560
breakdowns other than when I hit took the lower yield around in a river I hit a

833
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:24,740
stinking log in high water floated in three years something but that's not the

834
01:14:24,740 --> 01:14:28,700
boat's fault there's pilot air

835
01:14:30,780 --> 01:14:42,500
do the birds you know yeah well I was guiding bird bird watchers not on Lake

836
01:14:42,500 --> 01:14:50,120
Puckaway with it that's way better than guiding a fisherman birds are always

837
01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:57,640
there you know and you don't have to catch him he's got to see him but nobody

838
01:14:57,640 --> 01:15:03,840
would nobody was doing that so I'd take people out he just loved it

839
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:11,760
he's got the big jigs on

840
01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:20,440
oh you're dog you're gonna come see me you're dirty dog

841
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:32,120
yes I should have powered it up

842
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:43,520
it's serious it's gotta be an insight

843
01:15:43,520 --> 01:16:02,000
cover no there's not people say why are you running your boat with your

844
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:11,000
ball not sees it before the before the back end of the more sees it hits it you

845
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:17,160
know yeah he's gonna set up there all right

846
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:29,000
unless the marks and fish because he went back and forth

847
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:44,960
no break his way out here just like it was down there

848
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:08,920
let's start blowing here I don't think he'll care about that he doesn't know

849
01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:17,120
that we weren't fishing here he's not gonna come out here anyway just working

850
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:19,840
that inside I don't know what this

851
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:39,040
see how we got a drift we get here this goofy wind it's really hard to make a

852
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:43,920
nice clean drift on it on a channel edge

853
01:17:47,120 --> 01:18:09,680
I'm gonna hold this straight off of that break so far so good I didn't see a few

854
01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:15,200
fish when I came off the brake but front of that down tree there

855
01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:29,020
okay he's not walleye fishing he must be fishing crappies he's using a slip

856
01:18:29,020 --> 01:18:33,200
bobber see how far in the shore he casted

857
01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:50,000
let's see this work is break down and getting his net ready I'm serious

858
01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:08,540
it's

859
01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:30,460
the Janet Murray couldn't quite get it done last night

860
01:19:30,460 --> 01:19:35,460
It's an opportunity, so...

861
01:19:35,460 --> 01:19:41,460
We'll finish them tomorrow.

862
01:19:41,460 --> 01:19:46,460
You guys will give you that look, Zach.

863
01:19:46,460 --> 01:19:50,460
You've got to have faith, man.

864
01:19:50,460 --> 01:19:57,460
That's a lot of faith.

865
01:19:57,460 --> 01:20:01,460
That kind of faith gets you into heaven.

866
01:20:01,460 --> 01:20:05,460
That is an awesome way back when the sports guy,

867
01:20:05,460 --> 01:20:10,460
any time we want to talk about something that just inexplicably went wrong,

868
01:20:10,460 --> 01:20:12,460
we were like...

869
01:20:12,460 --> 01:20:16,460
Anything that was just stupid and went wrong.

870
01:20:16,460 --> 01:20:18,460
That was yours.

871
01:20:18,460 --> 01:20:21,460
2018, game 7, there.

872
01:20:21,460 --> 01:20:24,460
You can gain way to go to Boston in the World Series.

873
01:20:24,460 --> 01:20:29,460
And if they won, I would have went to Boston to cover him with a team.

874
01:20:29,460 --> 01:20:32,460
I was so bummed being that some buddies were watching the game and they lost.

875
01:20:32,460 --> 01:20:37,460
I'm like, yep, typical.

876
01:20:37,460 --> 01:20:40,460
I think the game 7 was in Milwaukee too.

877
01:20:40,460 --> 01:20:43,460
I forgot where they were playing.

878
01:20:43,460 --> 01:20:44,460
Diamondbacks?

879
01:20:44,460 --> 01:20:47,460
Might have been.

880
01:20:47,460 --> 01:20:54,460
I was at the carpet.

881
01:20:54,460 --> 01:21:01,460
Well, at first, they just killed them.

882
01:21:01,460 --> 01:21:06,460
I mean, Cubs never scored a run after that.

883
01:21:06,460 --> 01:21:10,460
Two or three walks.

884
01:21:10,460 --> 01:21:15,460
Can't do that in a wild pitch.

885
01:21:15,460 --> 01:21:19,460
But it was only the first inning.

886
01:21:19,460 --> 01:21:23,460
They definitely had plenty of chances to come back and win it.

887
01:21:23,460 --> 01:21:29,460
They had the runners on to do it.

888
01:21:29,460 --> 01:21:36,460
The bullpen was stellar.

889
01:21:37,460 --> 01:21:44,460
I thought the umpire was pretty interesting.

890
01:21:44,460 --> 01:21:46,460
Yeah.

891
01:21:46,460 --> 01:21:51,460
He feels fine.

892
01:21:51,460 --> 01:21:54,460
Yeah, I mean, seriously.

893
01:21:54,460 --> 01:21:57,460
Well, next year they're going to be all automated in the strike zone.

894
01:21:57,460 --> 01:21:58,460
Yeah.

895
01:21:58,460 --> 01:22:00,460
Interesting. I don't know how that will work.

896
01:22:00,460 --> 01:22:04,460
No, I don't either.

897
01:22:04,460 --> 01:22:14,460
Two fish, but...

898
01:22:14,460 --> 01:22:16,460
So he's jinging the wall.

899
01:22:16,460 --> 01:22:28,460
On one side of the boat and dragging it up.

900
01:22:28,460 --> 01:22:31,460
There was a few fish out in this, but there's not many.

901
01:22:31,460 --> 01:22:36,460
I like that better. The next one up.

902
01:22:36,460 --> 01:22:48,460
It's not as rocky.

903
01:22:48,460 --> 01:22:56,460
I would watch that a lot so then I'd just go and hold over the top of that spot and whack five and get out of there.

904
01:22:56,460 --> 01:23:00,460
You know, these guys would look at you like, what are you doing?

905
01:23:00,460 --> 01:23:04,460
Can't you see we're all drifting here? You're blocking our path.

906
01:23:04,460 --> 01:23:07,460
The fish are right here.

907
01:23:07,460 --> 01:23:12,460
Why are you drifting way down there? There's nothing down there.

908
01:23:12,460 --> 01:23:15,460
Wisconsin guys.

909
01:23:15,460 --> 01:23:18,460
You're not following the program.

910
01:23:18,460 --> 01:23:21,460
You've got to stay in line with everybody.

911
01:23:21,460 --> 01:23:23,460
I see you guys do that.

912
01:23:23,460 --> 01:23:30,460
The minute you waste fishing on productive water.

913
01:23:30,460 --> 01:23:43,460
Oh, I see. You know, you can't...

914
01:23:43,460 --> 01:23:47,460
During these transition times, especially,

915
01:23:47,460 --> 01:23:52,460
they would have never come down here in September, July, August.

916
01:23:53,460 --> 01:23:58,460
It's just not any fish.

917
01:24:01,460 --> 01:24:07,460
Usually by October it starts and it just gets better, better, better.

918
01:24:07,460 --> 01:24:12,460
You know, like these two cold nights.

919
01:24:13,460 --> 01:24:33,460
Obviously, there's almost a walleyes live there, so at least you've got an year-round part of fish compared to a river that's just contingent on current and fish movement and water temperature.

920
01:24:34,460 --> 01:24:41,460
But I know if I'd have taken you on the fox, it wouldn't have happened.

921
01:24:41,460 --> 01:24:49,460
No way. There in Montel, we had a shell that affects it.

922
01:24:49,460 --> 01:24:53,460
Dang it.

923
01:24:53,460 --> 01:24:58,460
That wasn't.
