You Won’t Believe What Swam By After This Catch 😲 Lake Glenn Bluegil

After work, I stopped by Lake Glenn for a quick reset and tied on a simple setup to see what was biting. A couple of bluegill showed up, including the one in this highlight — nothing huge, just the kind of easygoing fishing that helps you unwind at the end of the day.

But the real surprise came right after I released the fish. Two beavers swam by, cruising the shoreline like they were on their evening commute. It’s always wild seeing moments like that in the middle of the city. You never know what kind of wildlife is going to show up when you’re out there long enough.

That’s what I love about these quick sessions. A few casts, a couple of fish, and a reminder that nature is always closer than you think. That’s the heart of Average Angler Life — simple fishing, honest moments, and the surprises that make each trip memorable.

Live Highlight: Watch Your Step! IRL Fishing Moment

Live fishing always brings a few surprises, and this moment was one of them. When you're walking the bank, juggling gear, watching the water, and chatting with the community, it's easy to forget just how uneven the ground can be. This quick highlight is a reminder to watch your step out there — especially during IRL streams!

That’s part of what makes livestreaming fun. The unexpected moments, the little slips, the laughs, and the real‑time reactions are all part of the Average Angler Life experience. Nothing staged, nothing polished — just honest outdoor moments shared with the community.

Here’s the quick highlight — a real slice of IRL fishing life.

What Lure Did He Strike? Neighborhood Pond Crappie on an Inline Spinner

I love putting together the gear that actually works for me on the water — the stuff I trust, the tools I reach for, and the lures that keep showing up in my videos. The AAL Store is built around that idea: simple, honest recommendations from real days on the water. If you’ve ever wondered what I actually use, this is it.

Here’s a quick highlight from the channel — a reminder that the right gear doesn’t have to be complicated. Just reliable, fun, and ready for whatever the pond throws at you.

Bass Liking the Muddler Minnow #vintage #flyrod #flyfishing

Fly Fishing a Muddler Minnow with the vintage Bamboo Fly Rod! Bass were liking the pattern!

This trip I decided last minute to tie a Muddler Minnow on my trusty Peak Vise. The recipe called for:

  • HOOK: TMC 9395 #2-14.
  • THREAD: 3/0 Monocord.
  • TAIL: Matched Turkey Wing Quill Slips.
  • BODY: Gold Tinsel or braid.
  • UNDERWING: Tan Calf or Squirrel Tail.
  • OVERWING: Matched Turkey Wing Quill Slips.
  • HEAD AND COLLAR: Natural Deer Hair
After a few casts, I hooked into several Bass using a short pulls of the line. Seemed the Bass wanted movement.

Do checkout the video; it's a short snippet of the trip!

What's lurking below at Texoma... | kayak fishing #shorts

YouTube Shorts video of yours truly kayak fishing for Striped Bass on Lake Texoma – large reservoir that borders Texas and Oklahoma.

Putting in at Highpoint Marina on the Texas side, I managed to get a strike or two but never landed a fish.

Luckily, I had the old Water Wolf Camera – since lost in the waters of Lake Lavon our local lake! Trolling jigs and crankbaits, several fish had struck the lures.

And, this short video, you clearly see in the murkiness a nice sized Gar!
