I Can Catch Big Fish Too

Working hard for bait and then a road trip to Nickajack Reservoir

[@arthayday5133]

Keep calm Dave. The medicine is effecting you.

[@keithyoung7640]

Amen

[@michaeletherton8730]

Yeah

[@davidcarrillo6318]

You know Dave’s feeling good on the meds by the music 😎

[@davidcook238]

I really enjoyed the video today, it showed the life and times of a true fisherman. You need to make some blooper vids some times.

[@geraldbaxter321]

So entertaining, so true when fishing. Keep em coming Dave

[@fermina11146]

I miss the bank fishing vids.

[@fermina11146]

😂😂👍

[@markweissenbach196]

Heat + painful back + losing fishing equipment = me I mean frustration. Hang in there Dave, lots of us have been there. Thank you for being you.

[@outdoorsforachange]

Yeah, losing gear is infuriating when it happens. The next day not so much. Dave shares it in his edits though. Very honest dude.

[@stillwater62]

Thank you for showing the other side of fishing that most never see. I have been there many times. The pro fishermen edit these scenes out, and call them bloopers, or don`t show them at all. Makes the average fisherman wonder why he screws up, and the " pros " don`t. They do, except they can cut it out.

[@HistoryHoundDetecting]

Lost my Dad last year and seeing the grumpy old man come out in Dave sure did remind me of him. Put a smile on my face.

[@chrisbennett39]

Hey Dave, with that music, I was expecting John Holmes to pull up in a cabin cruiser. Lol

[@conrailfan6277]

Thats what I thought too!! 70s porno music!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@iceman9549]

I Love these videos! Catfish Dave is so real, that’s what makes it so great, because when you watch other KZbinrs the videos are to perfect. Everyone knows when you go fishing not everything works so perfectly! Thanks catfish Dave! Awesome 😎

[@intellectable5171]

Glad you got a new chair. I was worried the other one was going to break on you.

[@chuckstith838]

Now get a bilge pump

[@jims1105]

Dave, love the videos. Getting blown all over by the wind, losing lures in trees, trying to catch skipjack and catching NONE is a typical day of fishing for me and my buddy. 😜

[@wisconsinsirens7136]

I really enjoyed this video. You look pretty sharp with the new Thurgood boots on.

[@stevewilson7146]

Hey. Dave i just love watching you you're a great fisherman and l have learned a bunch thank you .Oh im also a guitar player singer writer.you're a very good 🎸 player..fish on PEACE

[@billylusk7207]

Dave seems to be wired! Have ya looked into getting that back fixed

[@weedeater64]

"he come off, he come off" I know exactly how you felt in that moment. One of those days when every little decision just compounds your frustration. Times like that, if I realize it, I like to sit down, put a worm below a float on a light rig and have a cold one for a few minutes. Man, I'd sure like to go out with this guy just for a couple hours to learn how to find bait though. Only place I've been able to find them is below the dam, without any consistency and not in numbers. Course I'm limited by being in a very small canoe or on the bank. Improved on last year though, the fist year I tried to catch them and caught none.

[@ut000bs]

Sing a chorus with me, Dave… 🎼Gloom, despair, and agony on me🎶 🎼Deep, dark depression, excessive misery🎶 🎼If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all🎶 🎼Gloom, despair, and agony on me🎶 We love you, Dave. 😉🤭

[@annwitzel9630]

The Harlem piano bar jazz bar music ? WHY / You nedd a bottle of MD 2020 or Ripple to go along with that music .

[@h.collier3544]

Except for the heat, the wind, the boat turning the wrong way, losing the green Foley spoon, the heat, the skip jack coming off, losing another Foley spoon, the heat, the shad drying out, the wind knot, line coming off the spool, the sun shining into the camera, and the heat, it looks like a fun day.

[@timothygreen9884]

My mama aways said ,cheer up things could get worse ,so I cheered up , and sure enough things got worse!

[@papatrt]

Thank you Mr. Dave, frustration he braved, for days like this you kept goin, that's our Dave!

[@larrypaulsr.5346]

Kooll I thought I was the only one that had those kind of fishing adventures.

[@biglouie9547]

Old porn music and catfishing , you're one groovy dude Dave 😎

[@roberthickmon2442]

I thought I was the only one to recognize that music. 🤣🤣😂😂😂

[@RUGER7750]

Just a friendly tip, when using braid only fill your spool about 3/4 of the way full and it will perform much better.

[@rodneymatthews3944]

That’s so it won’t spin on the reel smart guy nothing to do with it twisting

[@outdoorsforachange]

That's not true. Use mono backer for grip and put enough on so braid fills the spool.

[@landrover4757]

LMAO....Tripping out on Prednisone! Effects me the same way....

[@johnnyfudpucker6187]

I wonder if they make that Eagle Claw Shark hook anymore?

[@jamessmall1673]

Classic !!! The elevator music must be a side effect of prednisone !!! LOL

[@Bishop-bn4im]

That's not Cat fishing music Dave!!😂😂

[@richardpilger684]

Good show Dave, it gets frustrating sometimes, but you keep on going keep throwing them baits.

This trip reminds me of fishing with my buddies!! Snags, broken lines but we would have thrown out a few choice cuss words, my hats off to you Dave for keeping your Cool, also loved the 70s porn music! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Georgie12248]

You think he showed cool in this video? Were we watching the same one?

[@conrailfan6277]

@@Georgie12248 He wasn't throwing around any cuss words or breaking his fishing rod on the side of the boat!!! I was fishing a lake here in Indiana 2 years ago with 4 of my buddies and I had a reel that tangled up after I hooked a Catfish, I had to pull it in by hand to land that big boy! After I unhooked him I threw the whole rod and reel in the lake!!!!!

[@bidenhasdementia8657]

A trailer hook on those spoons works good when they're hitting short

[@frankribble4367]

I ain't telling the guys online in Tennessee where to catch the skipjack. They can be frustrated just like me fishing in Michigan in July & They aren't Catfish Dave. Lol 😆 I am going on vacation in Tennessee next weekend, to recover from the frustrating July. 😂 I have a hat similar to Catfish Dave that I got at Dollar general. Wish I knew what those white eyes were parading upstream about 10 feet off the bank, under the minnows. Others guessed Walleyes, Gar, or Bowfin? I couldn't get them to bite on crawlers. Looks like Catfish Dave needs a vacation. When the time is right he could catch 100 Drum a day on crawler harnesses or go to sketchy Catfish Alley & see if he can catch the Michigan record Flathead, parking his boat at the beautiful Zilwaukee boat launch, where they have nice bathrooms, built-in rod holders & my GF & everyone else in Michigan likes to fish off the bank. Argh 😤!

[@Trompeta1972]

Play that funky music white boy! Great show, great KZbin channel Catfish Dave!

I've got 10. 10 is what I got. I hate a spinning rod. Love your song. Lol. I'm sorry but it's funny to watch someomd else suffering in the heat everything messing up and going wrong. At least I know it's not just my fishing experience it happens. Good luck brother. On my way to go in next hour. No boat but I'll make do.

[@nicholasthomas3635]

HEY! Yeah, its a 2+ year old vid..........but bring back the FUNK beat ya got here.

[@Mexicocatfishing]

Yo!!! Dave!!!! Wen are you going to do a small movie fishing trip? And why you don’t get a gopro? Love you brother 🤘😎🤘

[@jeffwomack5821]

Take that music off loop, better yet leave the music out and nobody will have to rewrite definitions for cool, calm and collective. You could relax and enjoy fishing so your back could heal. I also suggest going to Walmart for some mono line and taking the braided line someone made you buy off your reels. So full of hate. I know when the camera goes off that braided line is going to get a whooping.

[@arthurmccorkle9865]

Dave, I've been there and done that with the steroids. Nothing goes the way it should and furthermore they make you just about as irritable as you can get. This was a real experience for you. We still love you Dave. Tomorrow is another day.!!

[@Coyotes254]

Catfish Dave's Unofficial Frustration Video. And yes, Dave catches big fish too.

[@davidjackson7051]

Dave did u ever consider the catfish are in those little coves where the skipjack are I'm not the cat fisherman u are love ur shows I'm in Oklahoma near lake Texoma that's a good catfishing lake there's some monster cats in that lake record bluecat was somewhere around 120 lbs And I know there bigger just people mostly fish for the stripers your welcome to come try it do a video who knows u might take the state record I'm a Dave too lol fish on buddy you can do it

[@kaseycornette9637]

Right at that very moment when I can't catch any bait, I'm hung up on every rod, line tangled up in my motor, and my wife calls me telling me she's off work early and wants me to bring food home.

[@arthurmccorkle4331]

Went through a regimen of steroids myself Dave and sure enough, they will make you short tempered and cranky. Hang in there big guy. It'll be ok !!

[@soupy1us]

If we every get a chance to fish together , up here on the Ohio River, Please bring your own fishing equipment, I don't want my stuff treated like you're treating yours.

[@davidstradtman8232]

Dave, I also have a cursed back. Prednisone will relieve some of the pain but it causes anxiety and anger issues, as we see in this video. After 2 fusions and epidurals I still have problems. Take care and be careful.

[@paulws58]

This has to be your best blooper video ever. You lost not one but two lures in the trees. You hate braided line but yet your using it. You hate spinning reels yet you are using one. You put the skipjack in the cooler but you kicked the cooler to hush it up. Your irritated because the cow was mooing. Your mad because the wind is blowing the wrong way. You missed many skipjacks but yes you did still catch catfish.

[@ITigerbaum]

A little trailer hook on the spoon may help? Hang in there my man, fishing can be frustrating and thanks for leaving the good parts in. 😵‍💫

[@KoolKatsFishing]

I am with u Dave I hate braided line. It always ties itself around everything. OMG I am laughing ass off. Nice to see someone having one of my fishing days. Every trip I have all these issues. Thanks for the laugh I needed it

I like your shirt., the light and dark camo one. I really enjoy your videos. My dream is to get a 50 pounder before I die.

[@stratos175escape7]

You fish more then me but I would use a lighter tipped rod if your have issues with the fish coming off. Enjoy the videos and hope that back gets better!

[@charleshamby575]

I'm not sure but I think Catfish Dave needs a good long back rub from a pretty young lady lol just a thought
