That hook-set is going down in history 🤣

A little luck never hurts when fishing! Everything else must have been just right. Fish of a lifetime for most of us.

[@philipstephan5451]

Catch of a lifetime. Congrats.🎣 👍. 🇺🇲

[@dmdale3598]

I remember when a 60lb catfish was a rarity. Today's massive fish of every species is a testament to the best management in the world. And sportfishers created that.

[@barflentigo7060]

and a buffet of asian carp!

[@kccatfishing4929]

Awesome fish, fellas. Congratulations 🎊

[@andyroberts4089]

A fish of a lifetime! I like to see that your set up to handle and weigh the fish without injuring it. I cringe when people put the fish grippers on large catfish. What a fish! Congrats.

[@gorgehen4955]

Great fish… congrats 👍

[@dmdale3598]

Great pictures!

[@Michagan_outdoorsman_James]

that is one hell of a fish, very nice work, congratulations. definitely cold beer worthy once you get safely home. thank goodness for todays smartphones, you pull this off back in the day and no matter what you say 3/4 of the people would say you are full of stinkbait. nice dang work fellas something to certainly be proud of

[@ChrissyBrown]

Awesome fish and funny video 😂

[@ebomoreno8119]

[@jonboatmorava9115]

Not impossible

[@ebomoreno8119]

Sarcasm at its Best. Great Catch!

[@travislyon]

I hope it lived being out of the water so long

[@carlbenedict6742]

Bro there's hundreds of 100 lbs in that River take your boat out sometime and just drive over them and see they seen that thing from their livescope they knew it was there and they drove past those all the time it's just a matter of when they want to bite or not they're very picky and they eat big

[@dbcooper692]

Catfish Dave would love this!!

[@nockreel1190]

Big ole catfish. Great catch👍

Beast bro! Wish I had catfish that size here in jersey!! 👊🏼👊🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎣🎣

[@kayak_chris]

Awesome fish! Whenever I think my bait may be too big, I remember there are catfish swimming down there that could fit a human head inside of their mouths!

[@todell7008]

Any speculation on how old that fish is? What a monster!

[@brent829]

Amazing catch! Can you share where/what brand is the bag you used to safely weight the fish in? I've been after big catfish and gar lately and I desperately need one of those. Thank you!

[@newcoincatfish6111]

Absolutely awesome catch!!!! I hit the thumbs up and Subscribed to your channel!! I catfish as well, haven't done a video in a while due to a long and expensive divorce. But I'm on the hunt for a new boat considering it had to go when the divorce was happening. I like your set up, what kind of boat do you have? Great video!!! Keep em coming!!!

[@doubleccatfishing]

Thank you! It is a G3 2400. Sorry about your divorce, no one wins in those it seems

[@newcoincatfish6111]

Hey DoubleC!! It's been a few years since my prison release (marriage) was finalized and over. It's the financial rebound. But that's about to change, unfortunately I lost my father 2 years ago and after all of the BS I went through over his estate with people who wasn't even related to my father, I will be receiving a check for enough to get me and my boys a nice boat. Me and the boys were watching your video, and my 16-year-old said... That's the boat we need dad... I couldn't agree more I said. So I messaged you lol Thanks for the reply and good luck in your future monster slaying!!! I live in KY, and once I find that right boat, I might have to visit and try my luck catching a toad!!! Be safe me friend!!!

[@irasherman3308]

Wow!! I could only dream of catching a cat that big! 😂

Okuma SS Komodo, and BnM Bumping Rod

[@giggigidy6998]

A 16 minute video that took me 30 minutes to watch 'cause I kept rewinding the first 20 seconds 😆

[@MrGsxr10001]

what bait did you catch it on ?

[@DustinKeating-yk3vq]

Im a boat captain on the Mississippi River in South Louisiana and on slow nights i would go tie up to the dock at a grain elevator when the unloading grain from a ship and ill catfish and catch 100 plus pound catfish all night long

[@mchristian99]

LORD HAVE MERCY! Congrats man!

[@alvinlewis9568]

Great Fish

[@russellrichardson1526]

As long as the fish was out of water and the way he was released its very unlikely it lived.. truly sad such a big fish and breeder 😢

[@alanwhitsitt5196]

Ummm... You do know that catfish can breath out of water, right? Funny thing my cousin did when I was younger was to leave one on the lawn overnight when we were kids. As long as there was enough dew to keep it damp enough it would live. Sure enough, next morning it was alive and well.

[@KellyGordonUSA]

I had no idea catfish can breathe out of water!

[@PalmettoCats]

freaking awesome!!

[@240LTS]

... AWESOME!!!!! What size main line? Leader line? Hook size and bait? Really enjoyed the video. Congratulations!!!! Sub'ed with a bell. Jeff

[@doubleccatfishing]

Sorry, but catfish are very hardy fish and no harm came to this fish

[@rickyt.9482]

That fish was in no danger of dying.

[@robfox7252]

Beautiful catch guys unreal wow we don’t have to many like that here in Ohio we do but they are all in pay lakes.

[@paulwylie989]

A good ole biggen!

[@BigEasyQuest]

Lol oh man that was funny. I'm guessing he was in the process of releasing line and though he flipped the bail and thumb set the hook then let a bunch of line out. Lol awesome fellas

You should have got that fish back in the water a lot quicker than what you did that's hard on a big fish like that to stay out of water for that long but it's a good fish
