Daytime Flatheads On Cut Bait

It's late August and the water temperature has dropped slightly. We went out for a day of fishing with a big storm rolling in. We used fresh cut bait and had great results.

Last weekend me and my brother went fishing and caught a 50lb flathead and right before we put him back we heard someone scream "what are you doing!!!".... they were pissed cuz we were releasing him. We told them we catch and release 99% of the time.

Thanos that person was crazy. Who would want to eat a 50lb catfish? I would have done the same thing.

Nothing like a good storm on the river. When I first heard the thunder I thought it was a jet. Then my mind went straight to one of my favorite songs. Call of The Wild by Chris Lidoux. (Storm clouds are buildin above the timber line, the lightnins flashen across mountain side. The thunders rollen down the canyons of his mind , somewere beyond the great divide.

[@bigtardoin4007]

Oh man, I LOVE your video but I wish you would've kept one of them to cook. The last one you caught was such a beautiful specimen...it had that pretty yellowish color to it. But, all three were nice solid healthy hawgs. Here in south Louisiana, the Flathead catfish are our favorite "go to" catfish because they are, by far, much more tastier than the Channel cats. We have two other names for the Flathead cats here in Cajun Country, one is "Opelousas" cat...and the other more prominent name is "Spotted" cat. This is my opinion, so please tell me if you agree or disagree, but what makes these Flatheads THE tastiest and the best eating of the catfish is that they are not scavengers, they prefer to eat live fish, not dead, unlike the Channel catfish. Here in La. we also call the Channel catfish, "Blue" catfish and they tend to eat anything they can find...they won't pass up a live perch but they will also go after that stink bait, cheese, they'll scavenge on dead fish. They aren't particular. So, I was surprised to see in this video, y'all caught these magnificent beauties on cut bait instead of live shad, perch, or crawfish. So, your video proves me wrong, these big Opelousas cats will eat whatever they darn well please when they're hungry. LOL. Fantastic video my man, and keep on hauling in those big bad beauties...but keep one every now and then to cook in a "courtbouillion" over a bed of coals. It's delicious! Watch the video below and cook up a pot of Flathead steaks that way. This is the good old Cajun cooking method: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGGxoWyqp9eke80

some think flatheads can only be caught on live bait but this year we are proving then rong. I landed my biggest flathead on cut mooneye and it's Indiana record flathead that I did not wait 24-48hr to get certified as it would of died.

Cut an ell into approximately one inch pieces...place the bait into a container with lots of salt so it will not freeze and place in the freezer until needed for bait!!! Take the unused bait home and then rinse, salt again, and place into the freezer for the next fishing trip......

Those are killer fish. Wish there were flatheads here in albuquerque.

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

There's gotta be flatheads up there. It baffles me that they would only be down here. But then again, I can't say that I know anyone who's ever caught one that far up.

[@killemall1983]

I am 99% Positive there arnt flad heads above the san acacia dam, near socorro. Ive fished the albuquerque area for the past 14 years non stop and never caught anything but channel cats. I think it gets too cold and there isnt a large enough food supply for them. Even down south in san acacia i have only caught 1 ever, and that was about 5 years ago.

[@Juanelo1946]

Kris, so that's how you use fresh cut bait! I learn a little more with every video of yours! In a few years, I'll be catching catfish! Yours were beauties, real monsters!! In fact this reminds me of deep sea fishing, except your fish are BIGGER! LOL! Thanks for the great show my friend!

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Thank you my friend. How old are the catfish in lake Ketchabigwan?

[@Juanelo1946]

Kris, we stocked channel cats here 25 years ago. I still can see them feeding under the feeder. They look to be 8 to 10 pounds each. I can't imagine the originals are still around? I did once catch a real young small one, so I think they're reproducing. I hope!

[@baddogortiz5490]

Juanelo1946 I love your bluegill cheeseburger sandwich and every one that I mentioned it to!

[@chass5438]

A fishing friend I had's neighbor caught a 34 lb Flathead and put it in a plastic swimming pool in his backyard. A hailstorm came up and killed it a few days later. He said it took an hour to get it in the boat.

[@markayw]

Now that is some great fishing but my question to you is how do you know that your not catching the same fish, and why are you throwing them back?

[@newyota1]

I thought flat heads don't move much during the day to feed.Everyone around here mainly fish at night for them here in Pa.

I Have Been Watching Your Channel For Over 2years And Never Commented. I Just Really Enjoy Your Videos. You Are A Awesome Fisherman Mr. Muddy River Catfishing. Shrimp Get Them In Every Time. But Why Do They Bite Soap Like That???

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Thank you for being a long time subscriber. Some soaps are made with animal fat and this is what attracts the catfish. In other areas such as Mexico, the women still wash the clothes in the rivers and the catfish have come to know the soap as a food source. They wait down stream for a lost piece of soap to float by. The fisherman know this and even target the catfish using soap while the women wash the clothes up river.
