There’s A Reason Nobody Goes To This River…We Went anyway! (Trophy Catfishing)

[@DinoDillinger]

Tatanka!!! You don't know how happy it made me to hear someone use that reference LOL!!

[@stevedoolanTacoma]

This is the first fishing channel I have seen in the southern US where the fisherman doesn't just drag the fish in. You used good technique for landing and netting the fish. Well, done. 😎

[@tykit9230]

That boy sure is getting big. He will never forget pops showing him the ropes. Impressive fish!

[@charmynboone3605]

Love watching your videos. Seeing your son grow up fishing has been awesome.

[@seamurda100]

This is one of my favorite fishing channels.

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thank you!

[@tacocin]

Great Dad making memories with Landon! My Dad passed away years ago and one of my favorite memories are the many times we went fishing.

[@kurtrickman7618]

You guys are awesome!! Great family man!! Enjoy when your dad is along as well!!! God Bless

[@BubbaRountreeOutdoors]

awesome day guys!! I can't wait to get into the Wateree River here in SC!! Wade

[@brittlanders351]

Caught my first fish of 2023 yesterday (April 15th)! Been a very long winter and you talk about a fish meaning a lot to you…after months feeling a big fish pull is amazing!

[@fishin-impossible2992]

Good video Hagen, watching you and Landon fishing brings back some great memories of fishing with my son.

[@simbailey8990]

MAN its good to see y'all on KZbin!! I feel like i got to catch up with some old friends today! God bless y'all right back

[@Wally2015]

Nice to see you guys again. Fishin in the spring is a surprise a minute.

[@bouncerslabrealnature9143]

Very good video except for going to subway when you get hungry....our subway was definitely run by cheapskates....no meat worth eating and very little of it anyway.

[@gregbunn4642]

I'm glad after 40yrs of fishing with a baitcaster I ain't the only one who blows one up from time to time.

[@mitchellhelms7238]

Always good to see you and your son fishin

[@SteveDouglastheCatfishDude]

nice one Team Grubbs

[@eugenebrooks4035]

Great video Hagen . I like your attitude and out look on things even when it isnt going as planned or when something dosnt pan out like it should . Cant wait to see you guys back out on the water . Have a blessed weekend .

[@mikeroberts3868]

Your boy sure is growing. It is nice to see him hanging with dad.

[@garybiggs9010]

Great job guys and great Dad! Wish I had a dad to take me out fishing when I was a kid. Subscribed!

[@henrywitecki]

I love the Steve Douglas style of this. Your own personality of course, but the pace and style is very Catfish Dude. Been watching for years, and stuck with you because you and Landen are great, but the quality of the content is really seasoned at this point. Great work man, I cant wait to see what the future holds for you both.

[@bobbynewton9247]

Nice Landon enjoyed the video thanks for sharing with us! Be safe and God Bless!!

[@ronskidmore3065]

Good to see you and Landon back on the water

[@lutherprince9304]

Great job guys! I enjoy watching your channel no junk.

[@cnccatfishing3775]

Looks like a whole lotta fun

[@OhioRiverFisherman]

I fished the Ohio River on Easter and caught 15lb channel cat, a 8lb channel, and a big ol drum. Then went back this morning and lost a nice blue. And I also caught a potential state record skipjack. I released her, she would've went over 3lbs easy!!! The skips are starting to come up to the dams. Awesome video guys!!!

[@CD19755]

Singing bridge is in Frankfort! Been years since I've been there! Coming down to Barkley next week for crappie, catfish, shellcracker and bluegill... maybe a few top water bass

[@kennyhaddock6216]

Been missing you guys , sitting here @ work & found this video which I've really enjoyed you are my favorite catfishing utuber I'm always looking for ur next video keep it up great job be safe

[@BudBanksOutdoors]

Good to see ya'll back out there again!

[@stevemilligan727]

Hey Hagen, Great Video! Glad to see you and Landon back on the water again. I always enjoy your content and looking forward to seeing another one with You, Landon and your Dad! As always God bless and can’t wait till your next episode!

[@budm9982]

Always good to watch you out doing it. Good afternoon fishing for sure.

[@tonykirby4809]

Nice blue. The other night I caught two nice channel cats right off the dam on a little lake in north Texas. They are spawning.

[@larry5138]

Glad to see you guys again

[@JohnGillispie-db4ot]

fun watching you and son.. ready to get out and do some fishing myself.

[@CreoleCatfishing]

Good to see y’all fishing again my friend!! Tatanka 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Army_Outdoors_88N]

Awesome video as always Brother. Weather is finally getting nice outside!!!

[@davekennedy4002]

Haven’t seen you guys in a while, new to you boat, looks good, Landon has sure grown since it’s been awhile, guys are looking good!! Thanks for another good video.

[@russhayes4882]

Been awhile but good things come by waiting !

[@ChristopherLeeMusic1983]

That's the exact boat I'm trying to get when I go back to AL this summer.

[@billymccoy10]

Ain't no wonder that thing was $200 bucks.. That thing will cover a 1/4 of a slue. I think this was awesome editing Hagen to put in that 1st day that the ramp couldn't be used then losing the trailer guide board and catching nothing to you doing your thing. Showing just how things can go most of the time. I love this channel because you and landon are good KY boys that know how to get it down. Thank you for everything you guys do.

[@philturner4749]

Congrats on a great outing with the kid, well done!!!

[@WholeOtherLevelOutdoors]

That was a great video guys. God bless y’all too.

[@HooksandHammocks]

I definitely want to fish the Kentucky more this year! Hope to see y'all out there!

[@keithfaulk1354]

You can’t catch anything better than a channel catfish! I also love brim !!

[@keithcarter4086]

I appreciate you weighing the bigger ones!!!! Nice job guys!

[@donthornton7528]

Here in Maryland we call them whisker trout thanks for sharing

[@gus2600]

You are one patient man . When you are old ,your son will be taking you fishing in his boat because of all the time you spent with him .

[@hydrodiction6925]

Yet another outstanding video! Thank you guys.

[@michaelhubbard1711]

Appreciate the video and God Bless . tight lines to y'all!!!

[@angrytrucker420]

Glad yall are back. Wish you could make more videos but I guess like the rest of us you gotta make a living. God bless.

[@paul3137]

Like your vids, it shows true fishing.

[@shanecornman7238]

Love the videos great content love seeing u and your son spend time together it would be awesome to fish with you someday

[@johngriffith4017]

“Tatanka”…I’m dying!🤣

[@RodWeberOutdoors]

Hey Hagen, enjoy watching all your videos! What size of ball and chai swivels do you use? I was going to give them a try. Ty

[@lewisjohnson2732]

Nice work ! I’d like to come down that way and do some fishing ! I live in Northeastern kentucky

[@larryjohnson6669]

same thing happen to me,,cold front came,,,it was 80s now 60 but 40 at night in va,,,

[@timo7032]

Enjoy your channel young man, you and your son keep fishing

[@mgarner79]

Your boy is getting big!

[@justinmckinney4650]

Those are some nice looking rods

[@keithwest6859]

Enjoyed the video. I appreciate your perseverance!

[@TroupOutdoors]

do you have video on your fish finder/ sonar settings? trying to help stepdad set his up for catfishing. A lot of videos i find are aimed towards locating bass/ crappie

[@EASTSIDERIDER707]

I use the dropper loop on my sinker slides. I still loose weights but my hooks and swivels survive another day.

[@johnl302]

Down here further South, that buffalo would have been supper. Fried buffalo ribs are fantastic fair. There's a trick to cleaning them, so watch some videos. Then do a catch and cook video. I would like to see your reaction if you haven't every tasted them.

[@markflick1641]

Nice fish ! 👍

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

Thanks 👍

[@tyleroliver405]

Id like to see more kentucky river content thinkin bout goin out on it this year

[@trinityoutdoors]

Another great video brother

[@Edgar-kl6us]

I need to get my kayak in gear, and get my butt out on the water, … and I know a few places to go up close to Scottsboro, & Guntersville plus I live about a 1/2 mile from the boat ramp in Gadsden, … great fishing abounds here in Alabama, …

[@avail1.]

I am thinking about how much catfish meatballs you might have put in the freezer friends😮 nice video thanks !!

[@arkyhunter2750]

Nice trip.

[@VectorBayInsight]

I stayed in a an airbnb not to far from this spot. I fished it from the bank in late fall and something broke off 30 pound braid...

[@daisy4439]

I fish the Kentucky river all the time. Fave spot is lock 11.

[@frankribbleRidingWaGrinder]

Please, catch a 50+ LB Flathead. I want to see what a Michigan State record would look like.

[@sammylacks4937]

They need a shave. I'd love to know why my kinfolk in W central KY have a accent no other Bluegrass residents have? Roll Tide everybody

[@Lanny-io9bi]

​@@sammylacks4937?

[@mikebrowning9055]

Great job.

[@calvinhoward2407]

I caught my first catfish this year on feb 15 ky river a nice 41lb blue, caught it next to a creek mouth above lock one

[@frankribbleRidingWaGrinder]

I like using fully cooked jumbo shrimp for Channels or live Bluegills for big Channel Catfish.

[@charleskeenom9481]

Thanks Hagen

[@AlwaysCozy1234]

Ever fish further upstream between locks 6 & 7? I’m near that stretch for work and have been trying to get into some fish but only finding dinks

[@OGBRADASS]

I've been running lucas 2 stroke oil (NOT TCW3 oil) it runs much better, low to no smoke on start up. It has higher ash content and is much tougher of an oil. It's a "hot" oil, not a "cold" oil like tcw3. give it a shot!

[@mr.chesthead4554]

Great video sir 👍

[@BrothersUnderwaterRecovery]

we just pulled 3 cars out of the river just up river from the singing bridge lol

[@randydurden5998]

We’re did you get the circle hook on the bib of your cap from? I have looked everywhere for some of them.

[@chrisclemons9943]

Nice video. What kind of boat is that?

[@jonboatmorava9115]

My dad would of lost his mind right at the point the board broke and would have been kicking and screaming at everyone and anyone.... The early 90s were just a different time. For me anyway. 😅

[@kcduce3652]

You are the quintessential fisher man. 🙂

[@chuckeli937]

When will there be a restock on fishing rods thanks and God bless 🙏🏾

[@draguel70]

Tatunka😂😂

[@rondellperry8320]

What size crane swivel do you use ❓

[@TheOnlyBigMoose]

where did you get your hook on your hat from?

[@hagengrubbsfishing]

I actually made that out of a coat hanger on a slow day at work several years ago lol. thank you for watching

[@tomgraham4643]

Really curious on where to get the circle hook hat clips??

[@slinginlead6647]

👍👍 Just subbed!! Thanks!!!

[@tracyodell6643]

Great video

[@kycatfishchris]

Just leaving pool 2 couple blues today!

[@randallcampbell510]

You guys are great. I watch all the time. You are a talented Eastern River Cat fisherman. But you are snobs. Over here in Tsi la gee country. Northeast Oklahoma. We eat those Channel Cat. And their Flat Headed cousins. Sometimes we just dive down underwater and noodle up us some supper. Come see us. Grand Lake of the Cherokees is full of .... Everything you fish for. Road Trip.

[@joshuabryan7176]

what kind of poles are you using

[@artharrison294]

What a pleasant day with your son!

[@wd4erm007]

Are the big blues and flatheads fit to eat or are they strong tasting?

[@tommylayton1814]

What brand of boat is that I like that setup

[@stevemilligan727]

Hey Hagen, Have you caught many flatheads yet this year? I haven’t caught any and was just curious

[@Northgacatfish]

If you don’t mind me asking what kind of main line do you use on your reels? I use 65# pro cat braid on my cat maxxs but I’m thinking bout going the mono route here recently.

[@angrytrucker420]

Always remember. It's a professional overrun. Not a backlash.

[@charleswayne8595]

hey what make model is your vessel
