[@bluesdad54]

Love to see the trips when you have the family along. Those are good times no matter the size of the fish. Getting that nbig one was some nice icing for that cake!

Good way to end a trip!!

[@ztemde978]

The fish were sluggish here in NC Sunday too. A bud and I are headed to Watts Bar next month for a few days. Hope we can hook into a nice one like that. Only takes one fish to make a good trip. Thanks for sharing.

[@BudBanksOutdoors]

Look like some good flat water to fish but knew the bite would start more when it rippled on top

[@joshtodd2119]

Heck ya man nice fish.. Always enjoy your fishing videos.

[@jamespennell6934]

Love watching you fish almost as much as I like fishing. I didn’t get my son hooked like you did. Maybe some day he will come around to my way of thinking. Thanks for your videos!

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching👍

[@borfishing7690]

Very nice Hagen👍🏼

[@fishwhistler758]

Love your videos. A fellow Cat Man James river VA.

[@frankweathersbee2553]

Great way to end a day!

[@randywilson6869]

[@1stsumo]

Hey Hagen, Really been missing your videos. Glad to see the Grubbs crew again. Man that fish was a tank. Good job. Keep them coming... Thanks...

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you for watching

[@Firewoodmaninvirgina]

Man what a good way to end a day! Y’all make some good videos

[@catfishingwithwayne4964]

Enjoy your videos keep up good work. I live in central Alabama the rivers here are in bad shape flooding bad.

[@uglyfrog7263]

Congratulations Hagen, wonderful show as always.

[@charlieboutin3341]

Beautiful fish! Beautiful family! Amazing that it was the last rod out. I always say..Last cast Goddess..and it’s freaky how many times I’ll catch a fish on it..(my rules state..I keep getting another Last cast if that happens..until I don’t get a bite 😂) God bless y’all! 👍👍🎣

[@hippiecatfishing4145]

Stayed with it and it paid off. Great video. When I know there are fish there but they wont bite i go as small as I can on the hook size and bait size.

[@amandaneff8421]

That's an awesome fish to end an awesome day the memories you caught with your father and son outweigh the fish by A ton. Love the videos

[@brandonhenry1376]

Great video, those slow days only make a feller appreciate the good days even more but anytime a 42lb fish is put in the boat is a good trip. I fish all over Watts Bar and will say that crappie and shad has been the bait of choice for the past couple months.

[@j-ferrell144]

Love all your videos brother. What a fish indeed ! Making memories with dad and son, can’t beat it

[@CatfishandCrappie]

Great video great fish buddy!!

[@carljohnson8364]

[@SS3Fishing]

[@keithbartlett6708]

What a TANK! TY

[@CatfishWeekly]

Great video Hagen

[@joebuck66]

Great video Hagen.

[@TheFlattyDaddies]

Awesome video as always! Way to grind it out at least you got a good payoff for it. I have the same issue with my new Catmaxx reel too hopefully they change the clicker design soon.

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

I normally glue the switch in the off position but haven’t done it to that one yet. Thanks for watching man👍

[@richj8731]

Great job! I enjoy your videos.

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you

[@frankribble4367]

Coming bank fishing in Tennessee next week. Would my best bet to not get skunked to fish a back water creek? See what his Grandpa who passed away from Covid taught my nephew, who will be my guide. Hopefully, he has an idea on how to catch bait. He likes catching stripers on Whopper Ploppers. Any Skipjack, Blue, Striper, or Gar will be a new species for me. Back home in Michigan we like using live Bluegills for Flatheads.

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

I would think this time of year the backwaters would be great, thank you for watching and good luck on your trip.

[@jacobgriffin7050]

I tried the main river several days last week finally moved up into the Backwater at the mouth of the Salt River tributary from the Ohio and we caught a bunch by the railroad tracks

[@charlesmcguire3107]

Awesome good job 👍🏼

[@davidmcafee746]

Enjoyed your video!

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you

[@JoshuaVacek]

What a way to end!

[@billymccoy10]

I sure like landon! "Are you sure the bait didn't come to life?" hahaha Reminds me of my boys. Awesome fish.. I'd like to know how man pounds of bait was in that belly.. Dont know if I ever seen a blue that fat.

[@lukeandwandalucas5979]

Good video I hope to fish Tennessee river sometime. my wife and i were talking bout it yesterday Now im fired up lol

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

It’s an amazing body of water, thank you for watching 👍

[@kansasrivercats3123]

Another great video man!! I have a question for you. Have you ever been spoonbill fishing? Would it be something you might try?

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

I have never actually targeted them but I have been fortunate enough to catch 3 that got tangled in my line while cat-fishing. Thank you for watching👍

[@hwdllc]

I never heard you say what size hook you ended up catching that last big fish on ? Curious haha

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

7/0 tackling Kats, it was hooked great right in the corner, thank you for watching 👍

[@davidmiller2238]

Nice fish, even the smaller ones! May the Lord bless you and your people as well- especially with salvation through the finished work of Christ.

[@fishin-impossible2992]

Good video Hagen

[@dougwhittington7218]

Show us your anchor for deep fast water and in the rocks below a dam please.

[@glennmeadows6892]

Great to see yall again missed them vids wish you made more tired of all these so called cat men out here on u tube land god bless

[@catfishheroes8390]

Yes sir👍👍

[@jordanturner9715]

What are those rectangle things u hooked up.

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Planer boards, they pull your bait out away from the boat so you can cover more water when drifting, thank you for watching👍
