Deadly Technique For Summer Skipjacks

Skipjack not hitting your lures? Try this!

[@okiefishaholic8096]

I swear he’s having more fun catching skips than he does catching catfish 😂

[@bidenhasdementia8657]

Hickory shad is my favorite fish to catch, basically a skipjack, 100 fish a day will ruin ya to bass fishing

[@musiccitymannn2781]

Skips are so much fun. Don’t know whether you’re gonna land em or not and they put a up a good fight

[@doctoordan]

A true plethora of Catfish Dave lately, it just don’t get any better. Unless of course we could pick up some Catfish Dave T-shirts!!!!👍👍

[@thomasjarosz7406]

Dave, Best show in town. God Bless

[@wadedeeds1738]

You got some good bait this round. Big fish coming soon I do believe. I'm 65yrs old seen a lot. I'm convinced you are the best cat fisherman ever. 15 minutes your usually on fish. Most can't even get close. Your truly something else. You guitar playing is awesome also. The Two mix very well. Keep up the good work C.D. exiting to see what lies around each corner. Living life to the fullest!!

[@papatrt]

When Mr. Dave is a poppin, the fish will be chompin!

[@walte99]

3:18 Dave loses fish at the boat and laughs. Amazing. Dave you are making real progress!

[@douglashammons8886]

At least he left for losing that fish instead of jumping up and down in the boat lol I wonder if he's been going to anger management

[@tennesseemattoutdoors5405]

Yep dad blasted has transformed itself into hee Hee.. 😮

[@BT1919]

I’ve seen him smile and laugh wayyyuu more in this video than I have ever seen him smile or laugh in any of his cat fishing videos….

[@douglashammons8886]

That technique seems to be doing well keep it up I love them Bluegrass you're playing

[@SLCOutdoors]

I think you smile more catching a skipjack than a monster cat...lol

[@matthewmcdaniel8846]

That’s how I know he’s a real fisherman he has just as much fun catching bait as he does 100 pound blue cat lol

[@cpprcrk1833]

Yes ! It's just like when I was a kid , the bait catching was usually the best part of the fishing trip !

[@jacobjames4760]

Dave grinning like a school kid , with his first fish on ! Glad to see it Dave !!

[@jenbilbrey1089]

Thanks catfish Dave. Thank you for passing your knowledge down two guys like myself. Thank you so much.

[@Mybeardog]

Skip jack makes catfishin fun. I like watching you catch bait almost as much as I like watching you catch cats. Thanks Dave !

[@douglashammons8886]

Been fishing Tennessee River for years from 40 miles through Cumberland gap. Learned to fish on Cumberland River. And every creek and mud hole >n between. Love the bluegrass Mr Dave

[@danielfowler473]

The bluegrass is the part I don’t like . But hey it’s his videos!

[@douglashammons8886]

@@danielfowler473 I was raised in the Appalachian mountains we have it in our blood.

[@erichwoodall2897]

Awesome video. What lure was behind the popping cork?

[@charlesmoffitt4811]

I always wondered it popping corks would work. I have several in my saltwater gear. Gotta give it a try. Thanks for the info. As always, Catfish Dave your the man!!!

[@musiccitymannn2781]

Yes

[@Cyclops1983]

Lol and I remembered..... everything I know. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 classic Dave

[@darrenangle4493]

I wish we had skipjack up our way. That looks like super fun to go out and just get into them.

[@jimparker7778]

Catfish Dave is the man! He makes catching the bait almost as much fun as the target species

[@COYOTE5053]

Dave does it again 👍 Love to see you loading the boat 🎣

[@chuckprice2834]

Did you catch catfish Terry's comments? He is concerned about your boating safety. You do you. Love the channel

[@BrokeBackBob4559]

Love your videos specially the bank fishing videos. Learning a lot from watching your videos. Can’t wait for the new one to come out.

[@conrailfan6277]

Heck Dave I hit the thumbs up before I watch the video, your the GOAT so it's going to be a great video!!!!!

[@f.afishing]

That is a lot of bait so easy, I think it’s the first time I heard you said click subscribe As always great video Brother!

[@douglashammons8886]

That's the first time I ever heard him say push thumbs up and hit the Subscribe button LOL where did that come from

[@f.afishing]

@@douglashammons8886 I know right? He is always saying that he has a KZbin channel, maybe finally he really found that. LOL!

[@cyborgnj]

I dont know if you do this, but in Saltwater fishing on the east coast, we use Menhaden for bait and fresh is king. HOwever, alot of times we catch as many as we can and Vacuum seal them for later use. Vacuum packed fresh bait is almost as good as fresh in my book, slime stays on the bait and the meat doesnt get mushy at all.

[@susandernick2515]

Thanks Dave for the info, gonna have to get one and try it out for white bass.

[@enduringpromise]

I enjoy watching and learning. It would be nice if you added links to the tackle used. It would be nice to see what was on the end of that Billy BAY popping cork. I thought you were saying Billy Ray and started Googling and found what I believe you were using. I assume you had a Foley Spoon or two on the end but not sure if both hooks were the same. It would be fantastic if you could answer questions that people ask so we all could learn.

[@alananderson2961]

Unbelievable idea Dave. You are the greatest in my book.😊😂😮

[@rayhall3010]

Dave I always learn something from you , popping cork for fresh water , wow I'll get some out of my salt water equipment , thank you so much , old dogs can learn from young dogs ,,

[@tinkertink6569]

I spent most of my life fishing in Maryland fishing at the Conowingo dam and fishing in Tennesee is much different from there. I have learned a lot from Catfish Dave. TY Dave

[@lonnypayne3538]

Catfish Dave rocks!!!! I enjoy every video that he post. I would love to do the skipjack fishing. Looks awesome

[@ericcrawford6646]

Please add a link in your description of the float you use. An affiliate link, and you could make a couple bucks. Thanks Dave!

[@DanielBoone337]

That looked fun... Great video as always keepem coming brother!!!

[@franielee38]

Wow!!! That’s fine fun catching those skipjacks!! Yay for sure!!! 😁

[@joshharrison7569]

Hey Dave, Thanks for your tip. I went try that on the Arkansas River.

[@monyp1676]

It's nice seeing you having a good time

[@jondoe-mf9qy]

Dave ever since you got your boat we don't get no Waffle House stories.

[@larryoliver9915]

They same thing in Louisiana to catch Redfish thanks for the video Dave 👍👍👍👍👍

[@jimhayes6040]

Thanks catfish Dave for helping me get my boat out of the water last week at Kingston….walking cane Jim!

[@arthurmiller8301]

[@fredkroldart7859]

[@appalachianfishing8548]

[@michaelrogers8912]

[@jessethorp3178]

Dagblasted Dagblasters dagblasting.....thanks Dave for another goodun....

[@Davidball795]

Man I struggle finding bait where I’m at. The thing I need the most work on.

[@jeromyallen1696]

I'd like to see a video of how you tie your rigs up for skip jack.

[@mikemayfield721]

He has one already, he is fishing from the bank. If you look back you should be able to find it.

[@Fishing4Reel]

I have some popping corks for saltwater fishing. I'm going to try them below a dam myself and see what I can call up.

[@richardpilger684]

That was pretty good, I'll have to get one and try it, have you ever tried an umbrella rig for skipjack?thanks for the advice and keep on fishing.

[@craigrasnic4178]

Awesome video sir, I’m not sure what the Tennessee state record is for Skip Jack but some of the ones I’ve seen you catch have to be close

[@vandos11]

Those skipjack got a machine gun head shake

[@dagolf06]

Popping cork is great for white bass too.

[@jamesgranderson2890]

That does it! I’m going fishing!! See y’all when I get back.

[@zackeudy6236]

I love cathin fish so much I can watch it all day!

[@charlescollins7137]

[@dennisfulford3961]

Thanks for the information !

[@daveroseman1185]

I'm gonna try that on hybrid bass in lake Norman NC

[@roypeavy3542]

Thanks for sharing your fishing video.

[@SuperSamiam25]

Good job Dave!!!!!!!

[@greeneyesfromohio4103]

I’m a crappie fisherman…..that would scare em all away no doubt 😂

[@lionelwilliams9155]

I get a kick out of his laugh when he's catching fish

[@arthurmccorkle4331]

Slay em Dave.

[@preachersdayoff]

Skipjack fishing is fun even if you don't need bait.

[@daveroseman1185]

I TOO want a CatFish Dave T shirt.

[@scubadkins]

You like this popper float set up better than folley spoon? What lure you using with popper float! Sabiki style but gulp rubber baits? I love catfishing but have never had any luck catching skip jack.

[@sts.556]

yes sir big thumbs up

[@josephdavis2607]

Dave you da man!

[@chuckstith838]

Dave shhhh. Don't give away all the secrets. Enjoy

[@donaldthomas6520]

Cool video brother

[@TerryClark-q6q]

Nice video, BUT, what was you using for bait?????

[@dougrogillio2223]

Looks like you enjoy the SkipJack & Catfish equally.

[@Time-n7j]

Catch fish dave what are you using it looks like a sabki setup

[@joseph41389]

If you don’t mind sir, can you tell me what rig/lures you’re using with the popping cork please?

[@danthompson1467]

Great video

[@madhatter7626]

Where are you fishing for the skipjack Dave

[@ryanswink1431]

What bodies of water do you fish? I live near charlotte NC and I don’t think we have skipjack here.

[@danielfowler473]

What’s the set up ? Piper float Sunil I ring and spoon?

[@danielfowler473]

What’s the set up ? Popper float Subiki ring and spoon?

[@Thumpaholic]

Good fishing video

[@jeffbriscoe187]

Would this work below a small spillway off the main river

[@joegrande4848]

I want to buy 2 of these an try them on the river. I'll tie a 16 leader with a fly with trophy bass by procure. To see if I can get finicky bass to bite. 😃

[@thrifty1783]

Anyone know where to look for skipjack in watts bar area?

[@russellbarrett1556]

Will that bobber work with a live blueguild l

[@randypierce9485]

Hopefully your on your way to get some bank fishing done.

[@fishinglocal336]

Bait fishing is so fun

[@joegrande4848]

I bet this would work on finicky fish in general 😀

[@jefferywilson4091]

Looks like you're having as much fun catching bait as you do catching cats

[@atchman2]

Dave, do you catch them in the main lakes like that? Or do you use a cast net?

[@victorguzman8936]

What bait live or jig

[@truthis777]

E very Damn cast💥💥💥

[@stevehegewald3260]

Atta boy Dave!!!!

[@allentruitt8632]

Can you eat those skipjack? They're pretty good size.
