[@michaelmarkus4554]

Indianapolis, IN we're allowed to have 3 rods. Up here i catch most of my big blues and flats on largemouth bass and crappie.

[@CatfishWeekly]

Great show Kris!

[@hankgarcia7572]

Good video Kris, you know I have used the Spin N Glo from my salmon days in Washington for cats and bass. I'm going to try the demon out I like the rattle plus it will hold the larger plastics off the bottom on the Carolina Rigs with the slinky weights you make. Good stuff my man.

[@BigJohnsCooking]

Great job always love to see you fishing!!!!

[@brianjenkins5591]

Aloha Kris and I had a really busy and stressful work week and after seeing the beautiful scenery and the water being calm made me feel like I was there! After watching this I am Good! thank you Kris for all that you do!!!!

[@VanGuard1020]

Another great video bro and a great catch, too!! The amazing background sound of wildlife, for me, is really what it’s all about when I’m out fishing, while catching a fish, is the bonus.

[@andyattitude2000]

I am so happy that you had a great day on the lake.I hope you have many more.

[@juanjaramillo421]

Awesome video Kris keep them coming

[@justingreene7654]

Kris I miss the old flathead fishing with drew on the ole muddy rio grande river.

[@sergioramirez3328]

[@tompbz]

[@chriswilliams3876]

Respect!! Thanks

[@faronmastin8683]

Beautiful background.

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

Those were some nice cats. You were having a nice day. New subscriber here!

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Smokin' & Grillin' wit AB welcome to the channel! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@stevereist1509]

Love your videos. I used to fish very similar places in South Texas. I have a just noticed your are left handed.

[@WhiskerStixFishing]

It's cool to see how one product or item can be utilized outside the box for other neat applications. They're essentially top water lures without the hooks on them right? That's so creative! Next we need to see a clear capsule type version to insert a whisker stick! Lol. Light and rattle attractants that's teamwork! Great video Kris always soothing to watch some one else fishing when you're not able to

[@wickedoutdooradventures6694]

Whisker Stix message me any time you want to discuss ideas on my Demon Dragons...Always looking to make a better product

[@WhiskerStixFishing]

Extreme Monster Fish i will scott thanks!

[@mikecha1957]

Wow brother since you started drifting/draggin on the Butte your fish catching has gone way up..You and Byron are doing great on there...Keep um coming...

[@PeelingDragCatfishing]

Good video Kris. i cant wait to get my channel started next year. i have footage from cabelas tournaments madjacks tournament and even just fishing by myself catching big fish. hopefully i can catch me some monsters on film like you guys. Im from the Tn/Ky water area we have alot of good fishing around here for the most part, but ive learned alot from you guys taking my catfishing to another level. Thanks.

[@andyattitude2000]

Howdy, I also live in the Kentucky and Tennessee area. I was just a little jealous when Kris said it was almost 70 degrees. It is about 30 here today and trying to snow. I hope to see your videos when you get them posted. Make sure to give Kris a heads up so we can all see them.Good luck.

[@PeelingDragCatfishing]

Thanks and yes i wish i could hit the water but its freezing. Good luck to you

[@DieterMelhorn]

What a gorgeous reservoir!! I bet you get to see some beautiful sunrises and sunsets there. I never noticed, but you have a mix of spinning and bait casting tackle. You're not as OCD as I am with matching gear....LOL! Great show pal!

[@rociohernandez9405]

Soaking big baits, for them big boys !!sweet

[@brucegoodloe387]

Nice video Kris

[@jasondaigle6887]

Man that’s crazy trolling for cat fish, that’s a nice blue and I would have a blast fishing with you, great video keep up the work and heck ya that was a excellent knight to fish you all ways get big cats, also I hate when the fish get off the hook but they will come back lol and he came back right on nice fish agin

[@Kaufeetimevideo]

You ever hit Blue Water State Park west of Grants, NM? It's such a nice park plenty if shade.

[@jeff-te1eu]

Kaufeetimevideo there's no shade at Bluewater

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Bluewater is on my list I haven't been there yet, but hopefully soon

[@robertlozano6546]

Does that lake have a lot of grass beds? Do you ever fish the edges of grass beds?

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

No grass beds here. But when the lake rises, you find them up in the weeds.

[@manuelramirez5856]

Fishin da winter time? Thought catfish r not as actibe as dey r n warmer tempz

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

manuel ramirez blue cats like the cold water

[@manuelramirez5856]

muddyrivercatfishing a notice when temps drop da bite slows down barley gettin any nibz at all

[@antiquecatfishing7068]

my question is, how much does the color of a rattle actually factor in on how you catch? I think i'm gonna do little research on this and do a video about what I find out... maybe like a summer season of fishing both from my pontoon and from the bank. Whats your thoughts about the color of the rattle?

[@TheMDOutdoors2016]

Awesome video and beautiful fish I love those demon dragons. I have great video on how to properly rig one up the rig helped catfishbill 66 catch his pb on flathead which is 36lb 3oz. You have to check it out as always happy fishing and tight lines.

[@DieterMelhorn]

Have you fished the Demon Dragon enough to get a good feel for them? I just put up a video on them, but I only had two to experiment with and both ended up broke off in brush piles! I am getting more of them for a more extensive side-by-side test with traditional corks. I would love to hear your opinion and take on them. THEY MAKE A LOT OF NOISE!!

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

There's been some discussion about this on Facebook recently. The one factor that some catfish anglers tend to overlook is vibration. People forget about the lateral line that catfish use to sense vibration in the water. Some may argue that the Demon Dragon will not make noise being pulled behind a boat, but it doesn't take much to make it rattle. And keep in mind that it is connected to a weight that is constantly being dragged across the bottom. Any little bump will cause the demon dragon to rattle. Another thing to keep in mind is that when a catfish strikes at the bait, it will cause the Demon Dragon to rattle, this puts out vibrations that simulate (In my opinion) an injured or excited baitfish, thus triggering a reaction strike. I'm quite pleased with the product and will continue to use it.

[@heathschwab]

Very nice I have to get one or make one of them. I use bobbers while fishing from shore helps little. I miss trollen if it wasn't for the ass hole stealing my starter and battery ide been in my boat all summer. But one day but I have to get the demon dragon but very nice video and fish thanks for sharing Kris. God bless

[@LifeintheWildernessAK]

Great job brother... If you ever need a wingman let me know.

[@ivanangeles6212]

love it cool video

[@plcustoms4973]

Great videos brother,do you prefer braided line or monofilament,thanks

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

P&L Customs I'm a braid guy

[@casualcarolinafishing5835]

I like that "recharge my soul". That's what being out on the water is like.

[@PeelingDragCatfishing]

and i heard you say that youll have the muddy river flathead rod avaliable. are you going to have 10-12ft rods also? and when would they be avaliable? cant wait to get one. Keep lines tight and Peel Drag sir.

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Peeling Drag Catfishing hoping to get them in soon. The first model will be a one piece 7ft medium heavy action. If this one goes well, I'll be working on a second model. I'll keep you posted! Thanks for your support!

[@PeelingDragCatfishing]

Thank you for taking my catfishing to the next level.

[@Dgallardo4]

When do your rods go on sell?

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Dgallardo4 hopefully before Christmas

[@pitdawg6418]

Lake is super high, was there last week.

[@TheRubenGalvan]

Chris, I was wondering. As much as you fish, why can you not sell your catch to a local restaurant?

[@VanGuard1020]

Ruben Galvan He probably could, but I think you might need a commercial license to do so.

[@michaelmarkus4554]

Ruben Galvan cpr

[@mwatkins2464]

Ruben Galvan a lot of families would love to be given a fresh mess of catfish!! I know I would and we have done so years ago!!!

[@mwatkins2464]

Michael Markus what is cpr

[@bigcountry5045]

hey kris, kerry in abilene tx here.... have you ever used the high - low rig ? its a double hook rig with 2 baits, very close to a crappie rig but for cats. if so did you like it and if not can you please do a vid on it ? id go fishing with you any time !

[@theCalsfv]

hey kerry the high low rig is an excellent rig to search for active catfish while targeting them on the bottom and higher off the bottom. Ive been working on a video for it but fishing has been tough. TIGHT LINES

[@bigcountry5045]

thanks

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

The high low rig is a good rig, just be careful fishing it in areas with heavy cover. The second hook can snag easily when reeling in a fish and can cause you to lose it.

[@bigcountry5045]

ill keep that in mind

[@vidacrazy]

@muddyrivercatfishing when did you get that boat? Never seen it.

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

vidacrazy I've had it for about a year now

[@catfishstalkeroutdoorswith530]

Awesome video Kris! Were those long slinky weights you were using?

[@andyattitude2000]

I ain't Kris but you can find out more about these weights on the Steve Douglas catfish channel. They are dragging weights that are hard to get hung up.I think steve calls them Dragon Tails in his video.

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Yes, it's my own version. I put a foam strip inside to make it stand up, kinda like a cobra ready to strike. I might make a video showing how I make them if you guys are interested

[@catfishstalkeroutdoorswith530]

Yes Please...thank you!

[@mattiep9924]

Do you ever catch and cook the fish

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Matt Perez I haven't made a video about it, but I hope to in the upcoming year

[@mwatkins2464]

muddyrivercatfishing I would love to see a catch and cook also on a big blue cat !! Thanks 👍👍

[@subscriberchallengenovideospls]

if you have time can you go trout fishing at nmsu pond in Las Cruces on next Saturday so we can meet up I didn't get to see your video yesterday because I was fishing

[@manuelramirez5856]

Its cool am a fanatic about cat fishin like u all ma life people bullied me 4 ma passion 4 da zport haz dat ever happened 2 u?

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

manuel ramirez sorry to hear that. No one really messed with me when it came to fishing. Don't let others bring you down. Stay strong and keep doing what you love

[@manuelramirez5856]

muddyrivercatfishing f*** em all they dont buy ma gear right

[@manuelramirez5856]

muddyrivercatfishing yeah a been fishin since i was 8 learned how to bait ma hooks tie rigs etc... they would call me catfish boy lol thank u chris a knew u understand

[@sicboy83]

Any states allow more than two poles at a time? Just curios

[@andyattitude2000]

A lot of states allow more rods. For example, in Kentucky you are allowed all you can tote plus two. That means that you can use all you want too.

[@michaelmarkus4554]

sicboy83 i live in indiana and we can have 3 rods per person. I know Minnesota u can only have 1 per person now that would suck. Washington u can have as many as u want.

[@sicboy83]

Michael Markus thanks for the info. One rod would suck.

[@mattdidit84]

So Missouri is 3 unlabeled rods BUT up to 33 labeled hooks. So basically i can write my name on up to 33 rods and fish em all.

[@somepeoplearedumbashell]

Texas is 99 hooks per person in any combination wether its trotlines or rod & reel

[@anthonycalderon7016]

hey brother are you and luke officially business partners? I seen luke wearing your muddy river catfishing shirts in 2 separate videos?

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Anthony Calderon nah, we're just good friends.

[@edwarddominguez6474]

Man that sucks just a 2 pole limit!🙄 definitely feel like it should be 4! Definitely should make and sell some of those cool bag tangles weight things you dishes out!

[@Avenues940]

Are you using fresh or frozen shad??

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

julian anthony this was fresh

[@swampazz67]

Can you try potted meat some time

[@subscriberchallengenovideospls]

do a catch and cook

[@robertmount1379]

Hey you didn't ask me lol
