A Limit of Squirrels from the Canoe!

I found a honey hole while I was fishing a few days before the opener. Went back as soon as I got the chance and wore em out! The primary food sources were black walnut, shagbark and shellbark hickory, and swamp chestnut oak.

Squirrel hunting is so under rated. Great teaching tool for new hunters, and a nice relaxing day out for experienced hunters.

[@stevethecountrycook1227]

Glad to see you younger guys still squirl huntin. 60, never shot one out of a boat of any kind.Was one of my meat groups back in the late 60's and 70''s! We were poor and most meat we ate we hunted or fished to get it! I would not trade one meal for a 5 star meal! You keep the tradition going Son! And teach your kids! God Bless.

[@bowhuntingleprechaun5268]

I'm 15 and my family lives the same as you just described. we hunt everything and eat everything. me and my cousin hunt squirrel almost everyday of season. I just wanted you to know there are still people like that and I pray that it will continue

[@mikeogden5256]

Amen 🙏

[@royorkesjr.8386]

There's nothing like a good squirrel hunt and coming back home to clean them and throw them in some flour and fry them up or put them on the grill...as a boy back in the day it all started for me with my grandfather's Springfield model 15 22 rifle

[@mikeogden5256]

God Bless You and ThankYou for keeping Our heritage alive and encouraging others to do the same 😊

[@brandonbower2252]

This kid right here is a hell of a shot from a moving conoe

[@davidsnider7708]

Well done! As a youngster, I spent many fall mornings hunting Bushytails in Ohio. Loved to get in position before dawn and watch the woods come to life. Some of my fondest memories. Thanks for posting

[@adikhdagn837]

I can put a hurting on Buckeye Bushytails and makes my heart race ! Been doing it for 60+ years

[@porksboy]

My grandfather used to take me squirrel hunting. He told me when he was a child his father would send hem into the woods with three .22 shells and he had to return with three sumpins to eat, usually squirrels. He prefered rabbits because they had more meat but squirrels were easier to find. He used a single shot that I still have today. For an idea of the setting this was rural Georgia and Grand Daddy was born in 1896.

[@andyb.1643]

Good old model 60! Tack drivin' old guns.

[@deanvarelas5311]

How many kids started out hunting squirrels. I know I did. I love it!

[@nathanstrickland6508]

36 years ago for me. Im 46 now, my dad and I started chasing bushy tails again 2 years ago. I enjoy and cherish that time with him. Cause I know that those days are numbered.

[@melissamessmer6544]

Cut my teeth hunting squirrels don't know why I stopped oh yea bow season

[@tman19971]

Rabbit

[@pattibrown1809]

I started out hunting lizards😁

[@whitetiger432]

@Jackson Ghera nice and fat...

[@worldgonemad5866]

Almost 40 years hunting and this is still my favorite way to hunt.

[@dennyroszell8744]

Very impressive!! Self filming and shooting with a .22 out of a canoe!

[@ScottWConvid19]

Your channel is likely gonna start to boom now that you've got near 50k subs. You've got one of the best hunting channels on KZbin. You've put on the work, soon you'll reap the rewards!

[@davidd6854]

I guess I was about 9 or 10 years old and my oldest brother bought an old truck. I was checking it out and found a 22 cal pellet gun with no stock under the driver seat. Took it and oiled it up and it shot like new one! Killed many a squirrel and rabbit with it. I’m 44 now and taking my son out this weekend to 🐿 hunt!!

[@CatmanOutdoors]

That’s awesome

[@diggerdave1052]

Is it the same gun ?

[@mikeogden5256]

Squirrel gumbo with the heads in it I love it

[@thcook42]

Should’ve done a catch clean cook video with the squirrels

[@ScottWConvid19]

CHICKEN OF THE TREES!!! 😁 GREAT VIDEO CATMAN! I DON'T THINK MOST PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THE CHALLENGE OF SHOOTING EM FROM A WATERCRAFT AND VIDEO RECORDING AS GOOD AS YOU DID. GREAT JOB!

[@spuds8896]

Great video brother. Love squirrel hunting and those old marlin m60s are death on a stick!

[@jamesrichie5082]

You remind me of me in my younger years .hunting and fishing day and night.keep it up guys ,love your videos.semper fi.

[@KeplerCreekOutdoors]

Paddling, filming, and shooting... worked hard to make a great video!

[@luketilley9137]

Squirrel dumplings!🤠👍

[@ryanwindham2997]

Good job Cat. Good to see ya back this season.

[@delculbertson2369]

Enjoyed the video! You did a great job filming while balancing a canoe, looking up, and making the shot! Great job! Stay safe, Cubby

[@Ruger41mag]

Nice hear some quail in the background

[@johnb6084]

The older Model 60's are great. I had one 50 yrs ago and shot it so much I wore it out. I still love squirrel hunting to this day. The Model 60's of today just aren't the same gun.

[@deltacountry2413]

Yes indeed! That’s some fun times, brings back memories for sure.

[@oldnorthstateoutdoors2002]

I've never killed a limit of squirrels before, much less with a 22 out of a canoe. That's really making a statement young man. BRAVO

[@1972davidt]

That was some awesome shooting with the ole rusty Marlin! Congrats on the nice limit of squirrels, especially from a canoe!

[@carygrubbs5033]

That marlin is accurate that’s why I love ‘em

[@coreyswhitetailwoods4747]

Awesome squirrel hunt! Thanks for sharing!

[@nguyentranusa5315]

Wow 1st time see hunting Squirrels. Really enjoyed. Thank you for sharing this

[@flyfishhunter]

This guy is a hunter... AND an arborist!!

[@ronniestrickland8836]

great start to hunting season, thx for sharing that

[@adikhdagn837]

LOVE THIS ! I GET JUST AS EXCITED ON A FOX SQUIRREL AS I DO ON A BIG BUCK !!!

[@roberthikade9759]

Great video Catman and sweet tee shirt, Grew up doing that in Michigan.

[@richardspellman1899]

I was in the woods when my pops still had to carry me,great memories,think of him when I'm in the woods

[@romethagentleman5689]

I enjoyed this video. Great job on the squirrel hunt. Happy New Year bro!

[@chuckgreenwood6259]

Hey Catman, hope you are doing okay brother! It's Deer season and we haven't see or heard from you in a while.... hoping everything is okay in your world. Thanks for making great videos that we all look forward to watching.

[@jared5862]

I film my hunts as well so I’ve got mad respect for you even getting a couple of those kill shots on cam from a moving canoe. Mad respect bro.

[@wvbonbonqueen]

A GREAT Video!!! Enjoyed watching those squirrels fall. I never have hunted from a boat/canoe, but it sure does look like it would be a bit of a good test to see just how steady you are. I had to subscribe after watching this one!!!

[@beauschumacher]

Love seeing the squirrels come down and hit the water and splash lol

[@stevejames9510]

The Model 60 is nothing to sneeze at!! Ive had a few.... Great rifles!!

[@ronniethompson3498]

Enjoyed watching that remembering Good Times

[@coldfridayduckcamp2457]

I’ve never seen a video like this before - very good!

[@mattcarpenter8689]

Great Video Catman Thanks for Sharing 👍🏻

[@chucklutz8105]

Frank's red hot wing sauce and squirrel 🐿️ cooked slow, yum! Oct.2 general squirrel opens

[@willliechty257]

Been watching you for awhile now, just want to say congrats and keep up the good work!

[@dave-cd7jd]

cant wait for deer season to roll back around, love your videos

[@lungbustercrnvr1384]

At der's a nice limit of some Great Eats!! I can smell them Squirrel biscuits and gravy from here!

[@oneg1970]

Dang! Good job buddy. Love the model 60 myself. It’s the most accurate .22 rifle on planet earth.

[@jamiejohnson1200]

Nice, you've got to market that shooting paddle! 😂😂

[@mikeelder9263]

I've never could find the squirrel in the scope after I'd sighted in the tree so I'll just keep to my 12 gauge Mossberg. Awesome video and shooting.

[@jasonblake6641]

Hey man. Been watching your videos. Your pretty much the reason I switched to a saddle. Your explanation of why you hunt out of one and being a public land hunter it does make a hole lot of since. Keep up the deer videos. Just got my first doe with a bow the other day. Always wanted to do it.

[@323bigmoe]

Greetings from Smith county tn, watching your videos while I patiently wait on bear dear/pig hunting has inspired me to fix up my old marlin 60 my dad bought for me when I was 6. I'm 31 now and haven't squirrel hunted in 15 years, thanks for inspiration

[@brodysgotemagain5051]

Yes love the old marlins

[@andycliett3346]

Never seen water hunting like this. Pretty cool man.

[@donaldcoday4765]

Outstanding job.wish you well in your endeavors.when I was a lot younger I would do the same thing.

[@skeetermalcolm1655]

Love me some squirrel hunting catman,Frid squirrel and gravy, great video man

[@CumberlandOutdoorsman]

I thought about going squirrel hunting this weekend, but I think I'll wait until it gets a bit cooler. High 70's and lower 80's make my squirrel hunting hormones start to come alive. Nice video though, you had a good morning with all those grays, and the two bonus fox squirrels. Now comes the chore of cleaning and skinning, but it's all part of it.

[@ryanwilcox8866]

Amazing content! Loved it!

[@outdoorswithtim.576]

Boy that squirrel hunting sure is fun thanks for bringing us a long cat man. Really enjoyed this video God bless you brother and from the Midlands of South Carolina we will be watching

[@josephanderson4613]

Loved the video. Living in the swamps of Louisiana that’s the way we do it . My ten year old loves it

[@awhitva]

We also squirrel hunt with a Marlin Model 60 - the gun has been in our family since 1984 and has killed tons of squirrels, and even a few rabbits. We have several squirrel-hunting videos up on KZbin.

[@jamieweisent4396]

Hope Catman is well, haven't heard from him in a while....

[@brianheidel4550]

Wow, that place is loaded. Nice job.

[@steemerxaxon1643]

The majority of people kinda favor the Ruger 1022... seems like!!.. HOWEVER I'm 50 years old & I started out with the MARLIN BRAND back in the 70's with one that was called the REVALATION back then & that thing held 18 rounds in the Tube & was a TACK DRIVER!!! I still own the Marlin 60 that just holds 15 in the Tube but I've NEVER had the first HICCUP with it

[@bluetruckhos9926]

How can you remember where you last saw them fall especially on the water... you are real good!!👍👍

[@juliosdiy3206]

It always excites me when i hear the word "squirrel opener". One day i will come down thr to get one of those huge fox squirrels.

[@13hawks32claws]

Well! That didn’t take long. Nice pile of squirrels.

[@larrystephens7437]

Looks like a lot of fun!

[@mikemagnum7987]

Nice shooting! I recognize that Ozark cooler in the front of your canoe... ;) I've had a canoe for 50 years, but up where I live, we don't have the eating kind of squirrels, just fishing and cruising around exploring and deer hunting. Good video, enjoyed watching, Thank you.

[@sonofafisherman743]

Great shots and a great video enjoyed it thanks 👍

[@arkyhunter2750]

Man, great fun and you got supper. Great hunt.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Man that looked like fun. I know it’s got to be hard to hard it steady in a canoe, great shooting! I love squirrel hunting!

[@JennRFL16]

Hey catman hope all is good been looking for your deer hunting videos

[@OutdoorsWonder]

now this is something you dont see everyday, great shot great content

[@angeloc9923]

Great stuff catman Thank you 🙏

[@mopbrothers]

This looks like a lot of fun. Wish I had land or water like this to hunt on.

[@michaelthompson7570]

this brings back memories! My favorite way to hunt squirrels. We had to use shotguns in Ohio but it was our advantage!

[@BigMerkGee]

You one he'll of a squirrel Hunter! I might have to try your technique in a deerstand.

[@jackster28]

Lovin This , Way Kool....Great Fun.

[@cystopus]

Excellent shots, marksman skills. Great.

[@Rooster2628]

Would love to see a clean and cook (variety of recipes) video.

[@yoyop5208]

No deberían pasar estos vídeos. Matando animales indefensos. Deben prohibir esto

[@davea5492]

I am a hunter through and through. Been doing it for 35 years. My son is now 11, and is getting his first .22 today! However, I am also a conservationist. Here in Michigan, the limit is 5 a day. But when I find a honey hole, I generally take 2-3 squirrels and call it quits. Too many times I heard the older folks say "Shoot, years ago, we could come out here for weeks and limit out every day! Now, there ain't a damn thing here". Gee, I wonder why. Conservation is the key to a successful and continued hunt. For every squirrel we take, 5-6 won't be born. Just a thought.

[@mikes.6985]

I'm 54 and I agree 💯%. Places where the rabbits and squirrels were thick are gone. We never see ANY there now.

[@scenicdriveways6708]

Good huntin', I've been looking for an excuse to buy a canoe, you just gave me one. Thanks. JT

[@robbie0884]

DAMN GOOD VIDEO SIR! I REALLY ENJOYED IT! 👍🤗🐿🐿

[@Yanked_Angling24]

Heck of a good video brother. Keep making the great content!

[@jethrobodine]

Great video. Now let's see one of you cooking the squirrels!

[@marshmud1530]

Great hunt. Enjoyed video👍

[@bummer1961]

Excellent shooting bud & from a shaky canoe 🛶👍🏻

[@larryeckart1410]

Wow! In the background I heard a bobwhite quail calling. Haven't heard that lovely sound in 20 years.

[@CatmanOutdoors]

I hear them every year all over middle TN but it’s not often that I see them.

[@grisseldog]

Nice shooting! I’m ready to go float the creek next month.. Good video!

[@itsjavaman]

Man that was fun to watch! SquirrelTopia!

[@davegingerich4808]

Great video.Good job.

[@OKBushcraft]

The ol marlins are great guns. Good video.

[@jimmiller3009]

Great video my sons and I do the same thing only we use 17 HMR flatter shooting at longer distance. We love it.

[@efaciler2462]

17 expensive ammo for squirrels

[@davidgingerich2230]

Awesome hunting video.

[@sbl9467]

What impresses me is that he was able to find the squirrels he shot later on.

[@hookedonbassncats]

I love marlin 22's . i own 4 of them and many of other 22's. There by far my favorite.

[@paulmoss7940]

Impressed with your video and shooting , young man. Good job,subbed.

[@moatsy74]

I absolutely love my model 60. Bought it for dirt cheap and it shoots like a dream.

[@bonesstones6584]

Dayum son, you crack-ah-lacken on them squirrels! Excellent choice in ammo too, CCI hollow points have always been my favorite, they shoot great out of my Remington Nylon 66. Like that shirt too!
