I FINALLY Caught the MONSTER CATFISH I’ve Been After! *BIGGEST OF THE YEAR* Spillway Slayfest Pt. 1!

[@joshuacrow9495]

If you ever want to take a random Arkansan kid fishing, my 16 year old son would love to go. He finished 6th in the Arkansas Youth Bass Hawgs this last year. I’m not a big bass guy, so would love for him to learn from you. Just from watching the channel it seems we share the same values and your a dang good fisherman.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

That’s a great finish! Glad to hear he’s after them!!!

[@kimmontgomery54]

Cole, my maternal grandfather was a commercial fisherman in the 70’s. Back then you got your fresh fish from private fishermen. My aunt has pictures of him with flatheads as big as humans that he caught on trot lines! I used to love to go fishing with my PawPaw! Missing our JayJay! Lots of prayers for y’all! Love and blessings from this old Bama girl!❤❤❤

[@COLE_and_JAY]

That’s awesome!!! Would be amazing to hook one big like that!

[@martyhenry7032]

Great job Cole! What a fight. Now it’s Jay’s turn to catch a big Mr.Flathead. God bless.! 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🙏

[@COLE_and_JAY]

You got that right! Hope she can hook into one soon!

[@williamgahman5028]

Congratulations Cole on that BIG Beautiful Flathead. I'm behind a couple days on your videos after coming down with Covid. But will surely get caught up this evening. I can't wait to see what lies ahead in part 2.

[@timdienhart3738]

I can’t wait and I’m definitely looking forward to part 2 Cole I enjoy all your videos. Keep bringing them on brother.

[@markreeves2491]

My anxiety was off the charts watching you fiddle with the drag , but I know it's like feathering the brakes ! 😅 Congratulations on catching a fine flathead ! 👏

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Thank you so much!! The drag on this reel isn’t the smoothest lol

[@nancileesina6185]

I felt that anxiety all the way to Wisconsin, lol. Nice catch and greetings to J!

[@drew3865]

The musculature on those big shovelheads is amazing. The back of the shoulders looked like a prize fighter's.

[@randylippert6416]

Another A+ video Cole, thank you again 👍👍

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Thank you!!

[@deborahlevey8527]

[@Mancing_Baronang]

Oh my God,,,, So big fish,,, Nice a fishing brother,,, 👍

[@ricardoturin5858]

Holy Smokes!!! What huge fish😮 great video bro

[@donaldmiller9648]

I was bass fishing on Bayou Bodcau in 1970s and as we loaded up the boat to go I saw a trot line fisherman next to his truck looking exhausted but excited. He called for me to come look. He had two standing metal drum barrels with huge tails hanging out of them..largest flat heads I had ever seen..both looked about 75 pounds @....will never forget seeing those. No wonder my 20 lb line broke on some of my cat fishing trips! :-)

[@joshuacrow9495]

Looks like a fun day in Dardanelle, AR

[@brettjones220]

Exciting! Thanks for sharing!

[@COLE_and_JAY]

[@heavenbound358]

THATS A DANDY!😮😮

[@COLE_and_JAY]

It really was! Thanks !!

[@ericpigg2689]

Those things are fighters. I caught an 8lb flathead yesterday on bass gear out on the Arkansas River. What a fun fight he was!

[@johnlavigne321]

Heroic catch Cole and Jay.. beautiful beast...love when you guys hook on to those beast..just wondering what green spinning reel were u using mate

[@COLE_and_JAY]

That little green spinning reel I have on my crappie pole is made by bonehead I think. It’s decent to use on the long jig poles but it’s not my favorite for casting and reeling.

[@stanleyharp5980]

Nothing like that big catfish fight. Love it

[@COLE_and_JAY]

It’s so much fun!

[@tonyfrederick8772]

Nice catch!

[@Bassmaster1256]

Nice catch. I'm actually surprised you got that flathead in given all the playing around with the drag you did.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

I didn’t trust the drag on that reel haha

[@donnypeay6770]

Great video....Where is it your fishing what State what River ???

[@papat7770]

Oooooooooooono I have yo wait 😂😂

[@nancybroyles7792]

Great job ❤

[@terrisecasy6568]

Those flatheads eat real good I like them around twenty to twenty two ponds. Great start to bet next time💯💯💯💯💯👍🏾

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Love catching the flatheads!!

[@jusnuts1443]

You're fishin' and I'm fixin' to go deer huntin'. Going back home tomorrow. I'll buy my license and be in a tree stand Saturday morning. First day of deer season! Been doing this 40 + years and I still get all bent outta shape about it!

[@COLE_and_JAY]

I need to put the rods down for a day and get into the woods!! Hope you put the smack down to one

[@sergiohernandez4163]

Have you watch kayak catfishing? That guy catches some giant catfish. I enjoy your show as well.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Yeah he does! I need to take my kayak out there!

[@sergiohernandez4163]

@@COLE_and_JAY be great to see you or Jay catch one of the giants well mainly Jay lol.

[@bernandoturner4840]

Cole= Professional angler… I see you lossened Up the Drag’ Now I See Why I Lost So Many Big Ones.. & I Still Dont Know how to Land the Big Ones.. Nice Job Cole..😄

[@COLE_and_JAY]

The drag on this reel isn’t the best so I had to be easy with it!!

[@Philc231]

Your producer does nice work .

[@COLE_and_JAY]

He does! I edited this video though!

[@Philc231]

You have always done nice work .

[@j.j.clingman4083]

Cole you should really try out the whisker seekers 9’6” cat pole I believe is there longest length rod they have but it could be a 10’ pole also?? Not exactly sure the proper length but no it is one or the other and I have had mine for probably close to 5 years now and absolutely love mine and it has been able handle every fish I have hooked with it also!!! They have a really nice double lock real seats and I also believe they are a SS also!!! The eyelets are definitely beefy also and I have not had any issues with them either!!! Nice a smooth on the line and help to bomb the line out for distance when needed!!! The whisker seeker rods are definitely my go to catfish rods for sure!!!

[@COLE_and_JAY]

My buddy has some of those and loves his. Might get me one to mix in. Loving this mad Katz rod though! It’s got the double lock reel seat and beefy guides too. Would be interesting to see the rods go head to head!

[@donnaray2059]

Way to go!

[@KevinPiche-h6m]

Cleaning perch again !! 25 perch limit all were 11-12 inches !!

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Nice!!! One day we will get into perch country!

[@KevinPiche-h6m]

Perch make the best taco’s💯

[@dogleg]

I bought that same reel off temu. Stuck it on a 7t zebco big cat. Nice inexpensive rig I can leave in the truck.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

That’s what I like about it! Gonna be a good reel to take after bowfin and gar

[@johnlavigne321]

What brand name spinning reel was call mate?

[@michaelmosley254]

Nice cole check out micka burn heart he caught the st record blue here in TN and he was by himself but he didn't record how he got in in the boat

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Pretty much lol 😂

[@edwarddarst4358]

Throw that 1 back and get a bigger one.😊 Get a big one

[@bartmormino907]

Good meat there.

[@markreeves2491]

The big ones should be released to make babies ! Eat it if it's essential for your survival ! Just my opinion, of course ! 🙂

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Oh yeah!!

[@bartmormino907]

The big ones are good to eat.

[@lorenoconnor5789]

But does it feel big

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Felt enormous lol

[@craigyingst9023]

Nice fish thanks for turning him loose. Not many big ones left anymore.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Yeah I usually only keep flatheads under 15lbs!

[@bartbuskey238]

Great video. I just watched a video from Cameraman Ron and Daniel from Arms Family Homestead did a video on Cameraman Ron's channel to help him and Sarah out as Ron is in the hospital and could be fora few months. Daniel is asking for others to help and help in the design or selling of a t-shirt to help or create a trip on his channel?

[@dediandtoys9319]

Kerja bagus 🎣

[@COLE_and_JAY]

[@Philc231]

Guess the Temu stuffs does just fine .

It definitely gets the job done but idk how much longer it’s gonna hold up to that kind of abuse lol

[@MikeSmith-mt5zc]

Ok so where is Jay at, have not seen her for a while, is she and the babies doing ok, we need updates if they are not doing well.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

[@BobBohner4851]

Too bad J couldn’t be with you today

[@danbontrager9410]

YOU NEED A 100 POUND TEST LINE ON YOUR FISHING POLE

[@COLE_and_JAY]

That would make it too easy lol

[@almacobbs4523]

That’s a Giant flathead

[@COLE_and_JAY]

It felt crazy big on the end of the line! Fought so hard!!!

[@firemedic5100]

The only time I've seen a cat that big was on trot line. Never on rod and reel. Son of aaaaaaa.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Love when a big one decided to play on rod and reel. It was an epic fight. Especially since it was at the end of a long cast and in the current! Talk about stressful!

[@pamdimitrio4972]

Where's the we? Jay isn't with you again. Is everything okay between you two?

[@markreeves2491]

It might have something to do with a rambunctious toddler and a needy baby ?! 👶 🤔

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Everything is great! I say we because I’m including y’all at home. Jay and I will be out together soon!

[@thomasleatherman6452]

Let’s go!!!

[@josephedgin4410]

you gotta stop messing with the drag the whole time. I have seen more lines pop as the drag is messed with than any other time. preset it for the line/tackle, then leave it till landed. trust me.

[@COLE_and_JAY]

This is a pretty cheap reel and I didn’t trust it lol

[@josephedgin4410]

@@COLE_and_JAY yyeah, makes sense then, lol

[@Lorenciamuful]

can you speak little bit faster? oh my gosh. gosh is new god of the fish? :D

I might could if I tried lol

[@dalereed658]

If you would have broke off, like your video a week or two ago. I would have had to unsubscribe, too stressful, jk lol

[@COLE_and_JAY]

Haha that would have sucked! I’m Pretty sure the fish I broke off was just a buffalo but you never really know unless you see it lol

[@timburris3758]

A Flathead Is Never Too Big To Ve A Good Eatin Gish! ✝️✝️✝️

[@COLE_and_JAY]

You’re right! They all taste good, I just couldn’t fit it in my live well and I honestly just prefer to release the bigger fish of all species!
