Kayak Catfish Compilation: 2024 Year in Review

2024 was a good one. The channel grew to almost 3k subscribers. I finished 2nd Place in the QCKBF Tournament of Champions. And I continued my streak of catching monster catfish completely by accident. For this video, I wanted to compile a little retrospective of the best accidental catfish of 2024. Happy New Year!

The joy is being on the water fishing - catfish or otherwise 🤘🏻🥃

[@abidefishing]

You ain’t kidding.

[@andrewbrindle9137]

I like the catfish end of the year video 🎉 happy new year

[@abidefishing]

I posted it just for you.

[@frankglines2045]

Josh, you need to teach those Catfishermen how to do it!😁 You had a great year in 2024, getting married and 2nd in TOC, looking forward to your 2025 vids, Happy New Year!

[@abidefishing]

I try to teach them, but the catfishermen won’t watch my videos. Haha. These are routinely my poorest performing videos.

[@TheJTTaylor000]

Nothing like those first 5/10 seconds of adrenaline after you set the hook on one of these things thinking this might be a tourney winner. Then the letdown, realizing it’s a big oh cat. Still a fun fight anyway. Those were some nice looking cats. Well, except the one with the Scaybee’s 😂 Great year of fishing videos bud. Looking forward to your 2025 season.

[@abidefishing]

I also love the fact that a lot of those came on my finesse gear. Reeling in 15-20lbs fish on 10lbs line adds a new level of challenge to the situation.

[@TheJTTaylor000]

@ very true.

[@mackjenkins7721]

Hey buddy how you doing man ? This was a good 2024 catfish remember video man . Every time you went out you got one & when you're trying to catch one you can't . I can't believe how 2025 is here now man . 2024 want by really fast man . Let's see how long it takes to catch your first catfish in 2025 man . I can't wait to get back on the water from my foot surgery man . I had a guy give me a shout out on his channel for my foot surgery & it made me feel better about it man cuz it suck that I can't do anything at all . Sometimes I wish I didn't go with the foot surgery man but as of right now my feet 🦶 are under 6" inches wide now & not 6 1/2 inches wide so maybe i could wear some shoe here shortly . Happy new year to you and your family man & thanks you so much for sharing your good video brother that you made for me to watch & doing some of them barefooted 👣 like i have to kayak 🛶 man . I really really do appreciate that so much from you man . Looking forward to seeing 2025 season with you man . I will see you next year & next weekend buddy .

[@abidefishing]

That’s how it works: those cats always come when you least expect it. And well wishes from me for a speedy recovery. 2025 is gonna be a great year for ya.

[@stuchumney]

24 was a tremendous year for your Josh! Top 2 in TOC and a lot of great bass though out the entire year! With a lot of slime to boot! HA. No telling what you would do in a Catfish tournament! ?? Thanks for all the great videos in 24!! Happy New Year and Tight Lines!

[@abidefishing]

Thanks buddy. Once spring rolls around I m going to restart checking new launches off my list. I’ve got a lot of new places I want to fish and a bulging sack of ridiculous lures to test. It’s gonna be fun!

[@MajorSmartBassFishing]

A good catfish to test your tackle and skill never hurts... Plus they are a fun fight ... Great job this year on the videos i watched them all Happy New Year!!

[@abidefishing]

Thanks for all the support. I’m just gonna keep on keepin’ on.

[@PopPopFishing]

I’ve caught my fair share of Cats on bass rigs… but you my friend are the champ on that lol

[@abidefishing]

[@benw2569]

Were they all blue catfish?

[@abidefishing]

[@landonsmith491]
