I would like to say thank you for tipping housekeeping. During my second life I found myself being a manager for DT. After a few years I was diagnosed with HL and I was going through chemo. While working one day, a customer pulled me aside and said that someone had made a mess in the women’s room. I walked in and was immediately hit with a fowl odor and suddenly had the urge to hurl. First stall….someone had a blowout that covered the stall walls, floor, block wall behind the toilet and the entire front of the toilet, top to bottom, as well as the seat. I hurled in the toilet of the next stall and then I had to clean up the nasty stall. There was actually a bucket filled with cleaning supplies, gloves and a mop 4 feet away. Wish they had at least tried to clean their mess up or left a tip. Anyone who has gone through chemo, knows. 😢

[@KayakCatfish]

You are a better person than me. I would have taken one look at that stall and walked out and quit lol.

[@mylyloy]

Tipping cleaning staff is a must with us because my precious mama cleaned for decades. The good ones really appreciate a tip.

[@camdavidson6847]

You're a good fisherman and an honest man. The people are listening. Your voice is heard.

[@d-squaredoutdoors5670]

Justin, You need to make a trip to Sandusky to fish on April 8th. You can make a 3 or 4hr Raw and Uncut Total Solar Eclipse Catfishing video. Sandusky will be in the area of totality. It would be really cool to see how the catfish bite is affected. I think totality will be around 3:12 pm there with the total event starting 90 minutes before and ending 90 minutes after. With sunset occurring at 8:04 PM it is like you will get a dusk, dawn, and another dusk over a 6 hour period. Could also do an edited video or even a livestream. Would be awesome to see you sporting a pair of Kayak Catfish Eclipse Glasses. Another option would be the Ohio River between Paducah Kentucky and Cairo Illinois. Totality there would be around 1:59 pm. The solunar calendar is already showing as excellent fishing (96%) for both locations on that day. They are calling this a once in a lifetime event and a catfishing video from this would be epic!

[@dandurham4288]

Shock collar worth’s wonders

[@huntermorrison3239]

Does this just effect those areas or everywhere bcs I fish the tuscarawas river in ohio and I wonder if the same is gunna happen here so I'm prepared and don't miss it

[@d-squaredoutdoors5670]

​@@huntermorrison3239 Looks like you will be in the path of the eclipse.

[@KayakCatfish]

It would be fun but unfortunately I won’t be able to make it to Sandusky that day

[@user-jo9lj1dq3l]

I believe that fish is a friend of the AT&T salesman 😂 1:13:08

[@hopescott1132]

Started out slow but you came threw good job teaching a lot of people what patient is keepem comeing

[@wesneal7913]

Here for the fish stay for the stories 😂. Really enjoy watching your raw and uncut videos. It's always a good day when we get a video from you. Really enjoy the realness of your videos, bets some over the other channels where they are over the top or try hards.Also, happy late birthday.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Wes!

[@jamescardwell3254]

Let's go another 4hr live uncut catfish video. This weather is killing me every weekend raining me out and I need to soaking bait o well can't do anything about mother nature

[@geoffkeahey2651]

Used to fish on the Chattahoochee River down on the Georgia Alabama border back in the 80s when I was in Uncle Sam's School of Shoeshine. Loved those foggy cool days. It beat the heck out of those hot 100 degree days with a 100 percent humidity.

[@johncobb2695]

The former "Ft Benning" I was there in June 67 in training for Viet Nam.

[@fredziffel3443]

I'm going down to Lake Seminole in April. The Chattahoochee will be a learning experience for me but I'll be taking my Tennessee River "tactics". I'll try to catch that "one that got away" from you !😅

[@geoffkeahey2651]

Oh, it was way more than one that got away. @@fredziffel3443

[@Retiredcop052]

Justin ….. I almost had “That Day”…..Started watching your video on Thursday night. I went fishing Friday morning and was not feeling right. I came home around noon slept all day Friday. I went fishing on Saturday morning and instantly began to feel dizzy, my mouth went dry, I started sweating and my heart was pounding. I packed up and rushed myself to the hospital. After 3 hours in the hospital, it was determined I did NOT have a heart attack, just a bad panic attack. lol after I got home, I continued watching your video. That’s all I thought about In the hospital😅. Again not looking for any sympathy from anyone, I chose to work police work. My point to you and all others reading this, is to enjoy everyday and be have a positive influence on life. It’s 3:26pm on Saturday and My sedation is wearing off. I will be going fishing at 6pm tonight!

[@KayakCatfish]

Glad it wasn’t a heart attack. Hope you get to feeling better soon.

[@user-jo9lj1dq3l]

3:00:38 heck, I thought we were on a fishing trip together so I was enjoying the conversation and being on the water 🙌

[@Matthew-qk1xi]

Brother I've been a subscriber for some time few years i believe and every video you put out is another reminder why I hit the water myself, continue the grind it is appreciated!

[@quentinsalters9132]

I always tense up when you’re bringing a big fish in the kayak lol, doesn’t look easy. Only an hour in and you doubled up on two nice fish, then catch that beast of a cat. Crazy stuff!

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Quentin!

[@leerose9933]

Like I told you my brother, the fish don't care about the rain, they're already wet. Catch a 200 pound flathead!!! May God bless you and keep you safe and healthy 😊!

[@nikkihayes9236]

There is something so eerily peaceful about your weather conditions and being on the water. Love it!

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Nikki!

[@gonesalty]

I watch these a whole bunch of other people that do this type of fishing but none can make me watch the whole vid like u ❤❤

[@bobbyfulgium6989]

Put a weedles hook on the fly

[@fishin-afamilytradition524]

I got a book to help me with my new dog. She's got "issues" too lol. It's called Raising A Dog. I answered questions online about breed, age, sex, what you want to get out of this relationship and they sent me a book tailored for Lily and I... even has our names on the book. Great video, as always Justin. I love the long ones since I'm driving 10-11 hrs/day. Have a blessed night.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you Teri!

[@biggmike2703]

Will definitely be there Saturday. Not too far from the house. Love these videos and all your other ones as well. Keep it up

[@KayakCatfish]

See you then

[@BeardedOutdoorAdventures]

Love the stories - enjoy the catches - it is always a great time when Raw and Uncut is released. Thank you Justin for another great adventure.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Matt!

[@randomcomment5382]

I work midnights. When I get home I grab a snack, my Ipad and some bourbon. These long, non clickbait or overly dramatic videos are how I'm able to slow down mentally and relax enough to sleep when the birds are having a rock concert outside my window or whatever they're doing. Not to mention what these videos may provide to the socially isolated or physically impaired individuals. These are great.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you

[@fredziffel3443]

Justin, if it's any consolation... Charter is lying to you too ! But that will soon be seen. 😂 Meanwhile, Thanks for bringin us along for some damn nice fishin!!

[@KayakCatfish]

I have hated charter for 18 years. They are the devil I know though lol

[@artnicol2792]

I tried to be a fishing partner. Right after you hooked a double at the creek mouth, I said to you "hit the spot lock" because I realized that there was no longer a rig to keep moving to avoid snagging and you did not need to pull against the motor's moving the kayak along. . Moments afterward, you did precisely that.

[@michaelcatoe7462]

Raw and uncut is the way I like it. Makes me feel better about myself when unplanned crap happens to an elite fisherman like you. And yes AT&T is the masterbaters of bait and switch.

[@joeyskaggs2519]

Thanks for keeping it real during our fishing trip, I had a few good laughs, and got some good advice on life. Fish on buddy!

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you Joey! I really appreciate your support. It means a lot to me.

[@markbartolowits5354]

Great video, I M 1/2 way through but will finish tonight. You r a good fishing podna and i apologize for the others Lol. Keep them coming

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Mark!

[@JerryTolley420]

Justin I have a rescue pit that was excatly like you describe Daphne, they keep that mentality until they are over 2 years to 30 months. Just stay in there and she'll grow out of it.

[@walkerscatfishingadventure9782]

I'm really looking forward to meeting you this Saturday. You have been a huge inspiration !!

[@KayakCatfish]

Awesome! See you there

[@davidhightower3731]

The reason I like your unedited, your commentary is great lol. I let it run while I’m working in wood shop. If something interesting is happening I stop and take a look. 👀. Will say you give lots of useful tips and techniques.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you David!

[@pigsandapples]

I'm only up to 15 minutes when I write this so don't know if you address it later, but a small piece of foam at the tow point of your fly could guarantee it rides up above the bottom no matter how long the leader.

[@ChangkongFishing]

"Great work - I'm seriously impressed."

[@OC_QuietMan]

I love these raw and uncut vids

[@NettingwithNick]

I like how you rig up. Lots of thought put into it

[@metalfacehertel]

Im still watching Justin. Gonna watch the whole thing brother. I love your content.

[@jonboatmorava9115]

Can't never trust the weather man, man!

[@catfishandwhitetails]

Watched the whole video. Try one of the invisible electric "fence" (I forgot the name brand) with your dog from tractor supply. They work great! Just a unit in the house and a collar for Daphne.

[@JerryTolley420]

Don't worry Justin I've turned 30 9 times in a row myself, that's how I look at it too.

[@user-uq6fg3gu7s]

Would love to see the night time trips

[@johnkennedy6557]

Great video Justin enjoy watching your videos went out bout me a new kayak

[@KayakCatfish]

Awesome! Hope you like the kayak

[@ralphempson2719]

Lets go young man!!!!!!

[@richardj6593]

You need to offer to let subscribers "bail out" bluegill you catch and put in bait container. If we want "bail it out of jail" and back into the water for only $9.99.. lol would be another fun thing to do while passing time.

[@JimmyBonner-ct1oi]

Me and friends have fished Pic-Wick for many years and have landed many catfish in the 30 - 50 lbs range. We used live bream close to Wilson dam. Where the water spills inside the hole in the dam especially. 90% of them were flatheads. I know it’s dangerous being that close to the dam in kyack. We use John boats. We also caught some large blues in the blow out of the lock.

[@jasondeansmith79]

I’ve used basically the same rig except I drag a crawdad style fly behind it. The only thing I do is I put a crappie peg float on the other side of my cut bait. If you pushed it up by your fly it would look like a jig head for it.

[@peterderidder9922]

Hi Justin, could you make a vid of how do you let youre kayak from youre trailer into the river and all the preparations you make before you start going to youre fishing spot. I have no idea how do you pull youre kayak from the trailer into the water , and how long it takes before reaching youre fishing spot . Would like to see how this all works ! Have a great catch Justin ;-) !!!

[@codyakfishing8856]

Great vid Justin, can't wait to get the trolling motor on my kayak, I'm going with autoboat, turns my little cheap 30lb motor to a autopilot type with anchor mode and all, I need to try dragging here at pueblo reservoir

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Cody! Hope it works well for you

[@allenallison2132]

Coworker had a pair of boxers full grown on a perimeter electric shock fence.. no wires just a box that you dial in a distance say 250 yards or 125 yards and a shock collar. The dog learns the barrier. The collar beeps a warning or shock till closer to the box. They learn the beep fast I heard and the dog owners couldn't be happier with it. Just passing along an idea thanks for the full fish vids, I bet they tick up in views with warmer water action

[@michaelburns9172]

Love your videos just can't do the time .

[@mylyloy]

Always love it when you take us fishing! I’m sorry those danged ole weathermen are bad at their jobs. You really need to take Will up on his forecasts. 🤷🏻‍♀️ you got some great fish in this video. Hate that att sucks so bad. Thankfully we live in the boonies but Verizon works great for us. Fingers crossed the utility co brings you fiber soon! Also we are rootin tootin for you on this tourney!!! Go Justin! #teamkayakcatfish woot woot!!! 💫⭐️✨🤩

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Lynn!

[@keithdocreed]

Good time for a Kayak catfishing video

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Keith!

[@tonysimons7218]

I have fiber internet through our power co. I was the third customer for residential. Best dam thing I ever did.

[@willloy8901]

👍❤️🙏✊🏻😁😁. I feel your frustration with your princess. That moment when they stop, give you a sorta over the shoulder look back, then continue to bolt away🤬🤬. Maybe I’ve lived a sheltered existence, but that is definitely one of my most infuriating moments in life! And all the nurturing be danged, if their nature is to bolt.

[@KayakCatfish]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who is infuriated by it.

[@willloy8901]

Control collars help sometimes? But some dogs can have very negative reactions to them also. It can be heart wrenching when the lil knuckleheads continually stress you out.

[@artnicol2792]

Technology progressively adds layers of complexity with declining increase in value added and greater likelihood of some component within the complex system failing.. At some point we"d see the intersection in the lines on the graph where the rate of added value no longer justifies the added frustration. You have spoken about your appreciation for simplicity. Profit-making generates progressivity increasing complexity as each "advancement" motivates us to upgrade and spend more money. Simplicity fails to generate extra revenue. It does preserve a desirable quality of life. Complexity erodes quality of life. I concur with your preference for the calm, relaxing quality of simplicity.

[@KayakCatfish]

You make some great points and are exactly right.

[@jonboatmorava9115]

As a long time Xfinity/charter/spectrum customer. It's not any better.

[@leerose9933]

You are so thanked for calling out the lies!

[@sergeantwaffles4814]

Looks fun

[@sistaslab3159]

Awesome video

[@paylakehater4414]

Loved the video!! that 3rd fish was a TANK and i think it was fish #5 his tail had a perfect half circle cut out. Watching this one with the wife and your rant about AT&T, Salad bars, Bass boats,Age, She said it's no wonder i watch all your videos because it's like listening to me. HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY!! And what happened to the moon pies??

[@KayakCatfish]

Haha! Thanks buddy! I haven’t had a moon pie in forever. Just kinda got off of them.

[@jameslehman2059]

Hey Justin, got me some catfish sumo Shad stingers. I got em hooked up. I can’t wait

[@KayakCatfish]

Awesome! Hope you catch some big fish with them.

[@leerose9933]

Happy birthday bye the way!!!!! You are very Loved!!

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Lee!

[@fishingwithray3278]

I would try using braid for the fly. Thinner diameter at the same strength.

[@wallacebrown4791]

Thank you

[@user-wd9jg5fi3m]

Cool long video

[@peterderidder9922]

Its GOOD youre experimenting technics and lines to see wich are the best way to fish in the surcomstances youre in. But you also should experimenting with kind of different baits ! Try out somme more things the catfish could like to eat if cutbaits dont work out ... I have somme suggestions if you would like ;-)

[@KHONTAEU]

Let’s go bro 😊

[@kevinssilentfishing7292]

Cool stories Bro

[@mikedevore8316]

Appreciate the content! How do you decide whether to drag baits or suspend baits on the move?

[@KayakCatfish]

If the depth changes rapidly, I will usually drag those areas. Otherwise, it just depends on what I’m in the mood for that particular day.

[@mikedevore8316]

Thank you for the reply! Tight lines! 🤜🏻

[@leerose9933]

Sunflower seeds are delicious. The hater's are going to hate. You know what I want to say to the haters, oh, I can't say that in present company.

[@bartfoster1311]

I don't knock you for the glove, i don't like using a net either. I usually keep my lip grippers in the boat though because sometimes a glove isn't enough! For example, a month ago i forgot my lip grips and ended up catching a massive 30 inch walleye. It was a pain to get hold of and land by hand without grabbing some teeth.

[@roberthowe5315]

Great video justin haven't seen you catch I stripper in a long time what mans do you use for your fish finder stay safe out there

[@KayakCatfish]

Yeah it’s been a long time since I caught a striper. I’m overdue for one.

[@AlleyCatPro2023]

Justin, how much is the master class you and Daniel offer? I'd like to be clear, I mean all of it. If there are 3, how much for all 3? I looked at them but could not figure out how many there were to get a total price.

[@KayakCatfish]

I appreciate your interest in the master class. I’m not sure the cost of it. Catfish Sumo handles that. Check out their website for the details

[@douglasmedlin7159]

Big farmers and ranches would call the backside of the property the back 40. For the large acreage they have.

[@kik-n-catfish1709]

Hey Justin, lock your reel and wipe the lens. Dang it. Sorry. Our flash to bang time is about 4 days. Well.. you cant blame us for not trying. LOL

[@bunkermonkeyspb]

The guy calling his backyard the back forty must have grown up in KY, I heard that so many times growing up.

[@justinfraley6680]

So Justin how do you really feel about AT@T? 😂😂 sorry you had to go threw that

[@braydonjohnson5336]

[@douglasmedlin7159]

Dang Justin you need to find somewhere to fish where it ain't cloudy and gloomy.

[@KayakCatfish]

Talk about getting a whooping. When I was in a custody battle for my kids. The Judge asked my son 11 at the time why he wanted live with me, and the Judge as him cause your Daddy lets you play and goof off all the time. He told the Judge you don't know my Daddy, he will give me a whooping. The Judge said oh he will spank you and my son said no he will beat my butt. The Judge was staring me down and ask my son if I put bruises on him. He said no he just make me behave so I don't end up in jail. The Judge then said oh and my son then popped off to the judge but Brenda does(his mother) end of custody case.

[@donsnider4389]

[@artnicol2792]

The common theme of the price-gouging businesses that exploit captive customers who have limited options is likely to be that they are owned by hedge funds who have to keep their investors happy with fat profits. Excessive profit-taking goes hand in hand with nationwide businesses who exploit strangers. Vulnerable strangers are their preferred market. They intentionally look for investment opportunities in which the customers are trapped with no other option. In short, virtual monopolies. Local businesses serve folks they know who are also likely to have other options at hand. Local businesses have incentive to be reasonable in setting their prices so as to not gouge their friends or drive their market away to be served by their local competitors. Hedge fund managers cater to their investors' greed and don't have friends. They calculate their profits based on "economies of scale" that function best on a nationwide basis. Our society has deteriorated into a collection of strangers who do not make decisions based on their kindness towards each other. In short, the Golden Rule does not apply. Exploitation violates the Golden Rule. So does greed.

I would watch night video's if there on monday or tuesday night
