GOLLY WHOPPER Size Fish SMASHES My Bait And Then This Happened…..

[@outdoorsforachange]

A fish that size proves you are the man when it comes to catching cats from a yak!

[@KayakCatfish]

Wow! Thank you so much Matt! You are awesome!

[@outdoorsforachange]

What can I say, I'm a patron of the cats.

Man! That cat kept your hook.😮😮😮😮

[@chillville5571]

I wish you would make an hour or 2 long video of all the bloopers, i bet it would be funny as all get out and at the same time im sure we could learn something too. Great video!!!

[@krazyfishkid8398]

When the title has golly whopper in it you know it’s gonna be a great video!!!

Yes! Hell I lost a 70 from a bank mad respect I gotta buy a glove . Tired of em knawling on my thumb

Man, that was an exciting day fishing. Quads, trips, quick releases . Now that's fishing at its finest.

[@andybaker5466]

Sitting here watching with my 4 year old grandson he loves it when you point at your rod and say look there he knows a "whisker wish" is coming! He starts vpk on Thursday! I am sure he has liked your videos as much as I have this summer!

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Andy!

[@slim2724]

Looks like knot came untied. When I used to fish for big Stripers, I would add a dot of Super Glue to each knot.

[@stevensmith4239]

With leaders in previous videos he's said he uses no tie Snell knows to avoid bad knots so I don't think super glue would make much difference

[@joeziegler9054]

Thanks for sharing Justin. What an amazing day of fishing! I hated to see you lose that huge fish that's never fun. As always thanks for taking me fishing today. Keep the good stuff coming!

[@fishinfromscratch5484]

Dang Justin, that was a heck of a morning! I've been applying what I've learned from your videos and am hoping for my first Golly Whopper in the coming weeks. Tell the next one that FishinfromScratch wants to talk to his granddaddy!

[@willloy8901]

Regardless of the less-then-perfect moments of your day, a very impressive outing! I was once told it’s better to be pissed off, than pissed on… guess I’d have to agree!

[@BY504A]

Thanks for taking us along for another exciting catfish fishing adventure. I think that smaller catfish was angry with you for disturbing his peaceful morning and helped his larger brother get free from the hook. They probably had a good laugh about it too.

[@BAPTISTVALLEYOUTLAWOUTDOORS]

another awesome video. numbers looked good and quality was fairly decent. makes me jealous. again my day has been made

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks James!

[@cheryl.539]

This video was brilliant. Your commentary is great. Its so funny. I have a good laugh. Keep it up I am enjoying your content.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Cheryl!

[@aaronwood3540]

Helpful tip: when having a large fish pulling on the line, back off the drag enough to get pole out of pole holder. Or you could release it for a short second. It works, pole comes out real easy.

[@knifecollector54]

Great video as always Justin ! . Always get excited to see a new Kayak catfish notification

[@rickcoffey3856]

I've learned alot from you I've been out of touch on catfishing you are bringing me up to date thank u

[@raymondsteinmetz4087]

You are far the best catfisherman I have watched so far we caught 2 nice flatheads but I lost 2 that there heads were wider then my shoulders my friend was scared of it and wen I handed him the rod he tightened the drag and snapped him off I was so mad I learned a lot by watching your videos thank you

[@garfylunds7301]

"He Gone"! Love it !!!

[@fishnmaster421]

Great video as always. Yak fishing is a blast I have just got spoiled to my pontoon boat that I have cleaned the whole floor off and made it into a fishing boat. I’ve got it lined with rod holders and nothing is on the floor but the steering wheel and the seat. It’s 24 foot of open floor and he has spoiled me to fishing that way. I get my bait from below wilson dam in those rough waters so that big boat I can cruise right up in them big boils and get my Skip jack with no trouble. I’m too scared to go up there in a small boat or a yak. Also I stay fishing all night a lot of times and I need the comfortability to move around and lay down etc. And then my wife fishes with me And she brings 300 pounds of stuff that we don’t need

[@tvabiker]

I lost a hook last week when I saw you , you said , he got him a souvenir. Haaa. Nice ones , I need to beef up my lines. I’m still fishin in that spot , been my fav for 4yrs.

[@bartfrazier1456]

Your videos are the freaking best, sir! You've got me more and more into catfishing from the yak! Got me a 35-40 pounder a couple weeks ago drifting, such a blast. My buddy and I are going to be camping and fishing in Stevenson, Al on the Tn river next week. You should come by and get on some flatheads with us! Many over 40 pounds recently out there, gonna be an awesome trip.

Ps- we will have plenty of fresh skipjack if you did wanna come! 😂 So your bait would be covered.

Justin, I have to know, what are the qualifications for dinks vs fun size vs golly whoppers?

[@Mr688895]

Another great video. Do you have any recommendations on seats? I am going to upgrade the seat in my kayak and like you I have issues with my sciatica nerve. Sitting in the seat in my kayak now for a length of time will cripple you up for a week. Thanks.

[@KayakCatfish]

The thing that has helped me the most is adding a cushion to my seat to raise me up a few inches. The more bend I can get in my legs, the more comfortable I am throughout the day

[@patrickmontgomery8117]

First fish wanted a lip ring Justin 🤣😂🤣

[@briansuttles6743]

great video, lots of fish. a boat would allow you to get to the dam, give you more range and get out of bad weather more quickly. maybe catch another paddlefish. but there are enough choices in fishing as it is lol. stay safe.

[@wilsonrawlin8547]

It should be noted just how durable and the superior quality of your fishing rod and reels. The work load in the poles is outstanding for big fish. Reel's drags are smooth as butter. If you are considering to buy heavy tackle for cats or medium game saltwater rigs these are the way to go. Incredible quality at a very reasonable price.

[@gobigorange771]

I saw Justin out dancing the other night... he was "spotlocking."

[@zipchtkdn7804]

Is there any way you can show the action or bend of the rod when you get these fish

[@michaelclinard4969]

You do great job man I hate you missing that fish I felt it too it sucks I know I've done it so many times

[@JamesGrubb-q4c]

It looked like your knot came loose, had that happen on 2 good fish so I changed knots from a traditional snell to on with a slip knot. Had alot of trouble with heavy line coming loose.

[@davidransom4476]

Line broke, in the middle of the leader, or at the knot? Mine always seemed to break at the knot. I have to see your rig video to see if you lubricate when snugging the knot up. If you don't, "they" say it stretches the mono and damages it a little.

[@kenny88241]

Justin I know you don’t weigh the fish but was wondering what’s your PB ?? I have seen you haul in some golly whopper’s!!

My biggest is in the video titled Holy Catfish

Great Video As Always

[@koreywilliams4570]

I've noticed that in my area the catfish seem to only want to bite early morning. Prime time is from 5am to about 10am. Anything before or after that I either get nibbles and no bites or no nibs at all. But 5 to 10 it's bite city depending on where I'm dropping line. Granted I use small treble hooks and that magic bait from Walmart and I tend to catch fish sticks. I got a cast net and I'm thinking about giving it a try and going for some shad so I can try for some bigger ones. So far my pb this year is a 3.12 channel. That one was fun to reel in.

[@patrickmontgomery8117]

Try using live or cut bluegill! Bigger bait/hooks will weed out the dinks. Up your tackle and you'll be in good shape to land some bigger fish!

[@jackgoodner6789]

what reels are you using in this video

[@chillville5571]

Have you thought about using longer rods and turning the rod holders out a little to keep the baits further away from each other or is there an advantage to using the rod length you have now?

[@KayakCatfish]

Longer rods would definitely put more distance between the baits but personally I find longer rods to be a nuisance to use in a kayak.

[@chillville5571]

@@KayakCatfish yeh come to think about it, it would be harder to bait hooks and land fish. Looks you got it all figured out. You know, you could make a killen setting up your other kayak and being a guide. People dont need anything but money, you supply the kayak, rods and bait. Heck, i'd drive a few hundred miles from Raleigh NC and pay you a few hundred for a day of catching some fat ol' cats.

[@virgiltaylor6055]

what type of line do you use???

[@tylerlocke3776]

I've noticed you've had a few big fish get off in the past few videos? You think it could be from them getting foul hooked from the stingers before they get a chance to get hooked good on the main line? Just a thought

[@KayakCatfish]

I haven’t had any more fish than usual come off. I just normally edit it out when it happens if I’m reeling in a single fish. I have had more doubles and triples lately so I have had to leave it in the video when one comes off.

I love using skipjack for bait but I will say that those things stink and slimy as all get out .but I did find a cure for the slimy and that's a salt rub it's like magic it works great and doesn't effect the bait at all if anything its an improvement to the bite try it it works .

Depending on how they are stored, they can last a few months. Personally I don’t like using frozen shad as they tend to get a little mushy when they thaw.
