How To Find Catfish Holes On A Small River or Creek

[@camphope9344]

That 3 pounder was a good size for the area. He was probably top dog, or second place. I’m glad I’m not the only one who surfs the satellite for good places to fish, and water depths. It’s really helped me find some good honey holes

[@ryanharrod1155]

How do you find the depths? Google earth for spots but what for depths?

[@thatswildokay]

​@@ryanharrod1155Google fisherman depth map, there's a free one that rules. I find a 19 foot hole off of my local pier on the map and snagged a big ass walleye!

[@Killada3pt]

The deepest holes are in the outside bend. Current erodes it from that bank and deposits it downriver at the next bend. So that deadfall should be where sediment is being deposited.

I agree bparker

Hey M. Hood. Went out to Lake Pontchartrain and pulled out a Black Tip Shark...2.7ft. Couldn't weigh it, but it was a baby, so I was able to get my hook back without harming it, and released it safely. Just wanted to share my experience with you. I'm a fan and have been for a while. Tight lines.

Mark you never ceases to amaze me.Catching fish in the middle of the winter.Mark you know your sh t.M.Hood fishing#1

[@stevehogan8829]

Hey M. Hood. Sure miss your fishing vids. Found this one which evidently no one has commented on. I had not liked so glad I found it. Hope you're just burnt out on fishing videos and are doing good. Stay safe and I hope you're still a non smoker. Thanks for this vid.

[@davidraines2873]

Glad the catfish are biting on the Sabine. I fish the river south of you down around Logansport la and sometimes I do well on the blues.biggist around 8-10 pounds. I eat my fish so I never put back that’s eating size I always say it’s against my religion to put back an eater

[@daveallover]

They call em pumpkin seeds up here in Indiana too. Longear is my favorite flathead bait.

[@Playertherese]

Great job Mark! I really enjoyed this video. I can’t wait until the spring and or summer comes in so I can do my catfishing also.

[@jamesthompson9999]

Pretty good day considering water level and temperature. Love your channel.

[@sandyrandal4608]

[@stevehogan8829]

Hey MHOOD. Good to see you buddy. had a busy day at work and saw this vid come up. Glad to share a minute with you. Thanks for some relaxing chat and a few fish. What the hell else do we need .... maybe a big fish and some coffee maybe. Thank you. see youlater bye.

[@easy_recipes123]

[@riseagainstallodds2394]

[@daniels4227]

Next, you should look for an orthodontist!

[@erikmcmulligan2251]

Go play world of tanks instead of begging for this guys attention. 😂 you’ve commented on multiple videos all of them hating and you’re mad because he won’t reply. You’re acting like a jealous ex bro

[@bobbyspencer2417]

i never seen you use big live bait like some the you was catching would made nice big fish bait my friend i would like to see you try that spot with bigger bait to see whats in there friend thanks for the great videos

[@eugener3987]

Love your Channel.! Keep up the good fishing.!

[@lilsolo68]

[@bigolpoppa533xog3]

[@bbulliard]

fun to watch. thanks

[@gat-conpaintingandconstruc3730]

Where does the Sabine run under 80? I've fished below 69 between Mineola and Lindale. I been off of 155 fishing lately in the Sabine. Im always looking for new spots. Your video is shining new light on how I find holes

[@Bayou_Russ]

[@benworsham1466]

Between Mineola and Grand Saline. I haven't fished the location, but drive it weekly.

[@mikegrayjr6527]

I love the areas you fish , never kno what u gonna catch , awesome video

[@joshcross2831]

I fish the sabine near logansport. The water is extremely low. I've been seeing massive holes in the dirt wall that would be a dropoff when the water is up. Will they return to the old holes, or just burrow out another one?

[@cheeseburgerdoorkeeper2717]

Thanks to this video caught some cats

[@alexmass9866]

i’m watching this from mineola right now

[@gavinfry3715]

Dude said, "Oh no! Yes!"

[@thatgamerkid-ve6qy]

Where do you live I actually might want to go visit there and try to catch up some big catfish I live in California Quincy and there is so hard to catch fish literally like the water so heavy flowing so slow flowing there's a lot of different stuff here then I'll miss you and it's very hard to catch bass catfish trout so maybe you could give me some tips

[@twopassionsfishing386]

Great video friend

[@onedayaweekfishing9414]

Thanks brother!

[@zipchtkdn7804]

Nice videos also

[@ryanreeder5897]

Typed in catfish on big muddy Illinois. Saw a man catch blue gill... Thanks man. Look into whole kernel corn. Might make for a monster bluegill video .. good video but please don't use the click bait title.

[@deaconzinbh]

Great educational video!!

[@mathteacher2651]

nice job!

[@zipchtkdn7804]

Man it's so much easier if you would just get bait running reels like okuma has one for like 39 ,69 and then a higher and u will cat more fish .

[@quentinnailsare.2024]

What state you in and the spot at

[@lucaspriesendorf251]

Anyone have any recommendations for a light action spinning reel under 40 bucks?

[@6412mars]

Oh well...not skunked anyway..Little Channels are a good looking fish IMO..Good Vid Bro

[@davo8802]

Hate to live in a state that calls that a river 😢 Even being low, we call that a small creek in Tennessee

[@joey-cn6mt]

What state are you in???

[@traditionaliink]

Highest is gonna be 80 in winter? Lol where do u live at

[@jamesweber2502]

jee wilikers😂😂

[@quentinnails374]

Me I just thru my poles out.

[@matruthn.m.bassin]

💪😎👍

[@tbonthered1920]

Hey mr hood try hooking one of those bait fish just under the dorsal Finn that’s gonna catch a big ole cat 🐈!

[@gamecockmike175]

Hang some lines from those limbs and come back in an hour, make sure you still got live bait still on the hook, small bream, sunfish will work to and keep doing that every hour and I promise you will hook much bigger fish than you will than fishing for them.

[@OomyZoomy]

Gamecock Mike but than there’s no fun In that

[@valentealejandre7941]

I once went to Cumberland didn't catch anything until my last day I went down early to the river and my line got tangled so I cut it and I left it and came back before we left to find a white bass on there

[@gamecockmike175]

@@OomyZoomy I beg to differ. There's nothing like pulling up to a line that has the limb bouncing up and down. It's not much different than rod fishing except you are allowing a tree limb be your pole. My 2 biggest catfish came off of set hooks. One was 58 and the other was 64. When you pulling that thing up there's nothing like it especially if you know it's huge.

[@jackfanning7952]

Catching bait

[@gustavomedrano3628]

Poor little catfish, hard life with 1 eye...

[@foxguyday]

If your lucky a lb

[@jamesvelder4971]

[@markduvall5353]

How in the hell did you let a 3lb catfish pull drag??😂😂 I pull in 20lb cats with no drag on 30lb Berkley trilene

[@blaccsilverstaff5484]

😂....he love the pull feeling but. I do the same as you hog em inn I be too excited

[@myermaslawi7299]

How to find fish this guy need to find his dentist

[@kenrakestraw875]

Y'all need to listen to what this ol boy is sayin!

[@Killada3pt]

Well the info is wrong, so I would recommend not listening. Outside bends are where the deeper holes are. The point sticking out(inside of bend) that the channel goes around is where the sediment gathered from the previous bend is deposited. This is common knowledge to and creek or river fisherman. The current hitting that outside bend is what scours the hole out.
