Fishing Alabama's Scenic River (Loaded!!)

great to see you in my home waters! Come hang out in Alabama anytime!

yes! two of my favorite fishermen doing a colab!

LM Jr. I watch his channel too

Should try the sipsey through the wilderness area

Greeting from Indonesia, love your video.

Welcome to my state. Leave some fish for me 😂

Beautiful place! Awesome Content! The older i get the more i want to fish.

whoooo Larry!

Welcome to one of Birminghams best kept secrets.

that was great

That fog or mist coming off the water always reminds me of trout fishing in Missouri 4 or 5:00 in the morning. Just waiting for the whistle to blow memories. I'll never be able to forget. Thank you, John!

Excellent video. Really enjoyed it. Beautiful scenery. Peaceful and calm. Looked like a great time!

Keep bringing the word brother. That river and its beauty is His creation, sovereignty, and majesty. Keep setting a hook for me a praising Him❤️

Awesome video. Ironically, i cross the Cahaba twice on work days and have been an avid kayak fisherman for over a decade, but have never fished it.

I've had several 100+ bass days on the Cahaba. Throw in all manner of bream and you can get over 200 fish in a day. The most productive time to fish it, believe it or not, is in the low water conditions during the dog days of summer, after 3 days of 95° and no rain. For sheer numbers, the Roostertail is king; ¹/¹⁶ or ⅛oz gray minnow or black. A hurricane craw or Florida five-O colored Gambler BB Cricket on a ⅛oz Spider Slider head is hard to beat anytime on the Cahaba. Also, a #9 smelt colored Rapala floating minnow and a ¼oz black buzzbait is worth an honorable mention. Unfortunately, the sores have become a common occurrence on Cahaba's fish. It's due to all the development; the residential, commercial, and industrial waste is taking it's toll. I thank God that I got to fish it as far back as the 70's. It's still beautiful. Good video.

I liked watching your videos , not other people's videos on your channel so I unsubscribed.

Awesome day on the river

Which section of the Chaba is that?

What a great day of fishing! Can’t get any better than the combo of beautiful weather, water, and good fishing.

Did you put in/take out in the same place or did you have someone do the shuttle run downstream? Always ask to learn more about fishing from a yak!

Very nicely done as usual. Beautiful setting great fish good work John!

Nice!

I'm a bit ashamed that I've lived in AL my whole life and never fished the Cahaba. Great day y'all had John,....thanks for sharing.

I really really love your channel man! Always enjoy watching your videos!

Two of my favorite fishermen....glad you guys collaborated.

Love these videos. What color yum helgermites do you recommend and how do you rig them.

Hung out with Larry one night during the classic, he’s cool and funny guy! Cool to see both of y’all hitting a beautiful Alabama River! Tight lines to both of y’all!

Where did ya'll put in at? I don't live far from the Cahaba.

With all those holes in the ground the dude with the camera shouldn't be looking into the camera while climbing it.

LARRY BABY!!

Thank you for sharing. You helped inspire me to kayak fish. I'm hoping to get out and explore more rivers here in PA. Thanks again!!!

Nothing to complain about on this trip.
Some great quality fish, beautiful drone footage, and an exciting float.
Definitely a day that the Lord made for you to enjoy what you love doing.

If you ever get back down this way, make a trip to Horseshoe bend military park. You can put in there and take out at Jaybird boat landing. It’s about a 6-8 our trip. You can catch a ton of fish. Really nice spots and Tallapoosa bass. My cousin and I are going this Saturday. I ordered some of the hellgrammites you use!! I have to try them out. Usually do damage on ned rigs, small chatterbaits and pop-r’s. Wish I had a GoPro and knew how to download stuff! I’d shoot you some videos!

Such a Great video. So proud you are showing my home State and home areas beauty. Certain areas of the Cahaba have red eyes. I haven’t been to this area before really need to go. 👍

Good one.

Where did you put in at? Looking to fish the cahaba I'm the next couple of weeks

Looks like piper in Bibb county down the road from me. What color yum was you using?

Nice river. Looks like a fun trip. I found your channel a few weeks ago when I knew I was moving to Cohutta. I've been enjoying your videos and am exited to hit some of the creeks and rivers within range for me.

Beautiful scenery, great fishing and company. Can’t beat it!

That's what she said (can I touch it?)

Where is this

I don’t understand why you change lures after catching a big fish. Why change colors after catching a 3lb spot like that?

What a great Day Out on the water was some great fish well done.

Come down to the caba river at Trussville Alabama there are like 5 pounders in some spots

Great video guys enjoyed it

Alabama the Beautiful ! Glad you had fun

What bait or lure are you using?

Watching your videos keeps me sane during another Pittsburgh winter. Would you mind sharing what rod and reel you are using with the hellgrammites?

Dude this is sick! Thank you for coming down & come back anytime! Learned a lot from you kicking my teeth in on the river 😂
