HUGE Flathead Catfish Sneaks Up On Fisherman

On this kayak catfishing trip, I was doing some anchor fishing using cut skipjack and bluegill for bait. It was an awesome morning of fishing with several blue catfish and a huge flathead being caught.

He was sitting there staring at you taking in the moment because you are the biggest youtuber he ever caught.

[@pondscumbaits8834]

Fist pump + “YES!” = beast of a flathead

[@dakotaroutson4784]

He said “today is a good day to have a good day”. Love it lol.

[@stopspam420]

Now THAT'S a fisherman!!! His excitement was so strong I think some of that river water got me wet!! 😂

[@rondellschuyler7074]

Huge flathead catfish. Definetly a trophy. 🏆

[@kylewilkey1537]

Liking that volunteers hat man. Nothing better than that big orange pride

[@nathanielhill9915]

As a bass fisher man, and a new viewer, I was genuinely supprised when you called that first blue cat 'small' haha.

[@travisgentry5494]

Did that flathead get the old 👊🏼action!!! Yes sir!!! Just going back and watching older videos!!! Keep dropping lines bud!!!

[@kennethowen7705]

You’ve turned an avid bass fisherman into an active catfish content viewer

[@devinjackson2373]

SO COOL that you catch these big boys and then release them back!!

[@ryanharrod1155]

Finally someone who knows how to release a trophy fish. Tired of seeing them get thrown back in after a huge fight. Congratulations JJ. Bruiser 💪🏼

[@davidray3558]

Just goes to show everyone, the bigguns bite in the later morning too! It's always fun to see your excitement Justin, keep 'em coming!

[@duanemitchell4598]

As always, another Catfish Kayak (mostly) of Justin doing what he does best...making folks jealous, and then...BAM a dang ol' Golley Whopper. Yeeeaa Haaawww!!!!!!!

[@catfishnews4710]

Nothing better than a catfish landed !

[@rogeranderson6668]

Oh Justin what a beautiful Flathead I love it when a hard-working man or a woman's plan comes together another epic fish brother thanks for sharing the moment with us. Tight lines and Big Cats my brother and much peace and love from northeast Texas 🤠

[@Holecek4075]

The joy you still have catching these fish is awesome!

[@chevycole6474]

3:17 AM ,im Chicago...and i find this video...algorithm is working OT,love it

[@jamesbryant5944]

Thanks for your videos, Justin. Though I'll never fish from a kayak, I get to live the thrill of catching those big cats through you!

[@mattb6956]

Unpopular opinion: I liked it better back in the day when you did your videos from the front camera only. Seeing your reaction when you have a big fish on the line is awesome

[@danielviens1687]

It’s good to see you land a genuine Golly Whopper!!!! Great job that’s why I watch your videos to see action like that!!!!
