LIMB LINES! (How to catch catfish using trees!

[@thecamocowboyoutdoors5693]

Good morning Brother, and thx for the show! That Gar sure had some action, lol. Good video my friend. Best wishes.

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Yes indeed! Toothy rascal too!!😂😂😂

[@dwayneard2099]

We target flathead. Live bream are the best for that. We caught 17 last Saturday night. Here in SC we cant limb line in daylight. Great video

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

That’s interesting! Do you have to cut off the hooks before daylight??

[@MynewTennesseeHome]

I'm glad you showed this. Limb lines are the way I do it in the river. I use what I call black bank line and tie a piece of orange tape to the limb. As always good instructions. We don't have cicadas here on the Southern Plateau either and I was looking forward to catching a bunch for bait.

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

I’d love to have more time for fishing! One week is just enough to get me in the mood!😂😂😂

[@thomaswilliams5005]

That makes me want to run some lines this weekend.

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Do it!!😎

[@lonniefranklin8726]

Good morning and good fishing

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Morning! Glad you made it!

[@jackkeeble9272]

Nice work son thanks for the video 👍

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Any time!

[@fldays6798]

They don't call it fishing for nothing nice job thanks for sharing keep the cameras rolling from Florida.

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

You got that right!

[@BloominOnion1]

I been setting limblines for a few weeks now, had some good luck with it, too. Not every trip produces, but I've gotten some good ones. I like your "stage cane" pole. Good vid

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Good to hear! Get the freezer stocked!

[@grizzlyridgerunner]

What a great video, good job, guys .the one young man gots guns on him 💪

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Yes indeed!!

[@longbowbanjoAL]

made my first limblines a couple weeks ago and used orange masonry twine. caught channel cat and gar lol and on jugs when using orange line we caught more gar than usual. might be a trend. also i had the catfish spin my lines so much i went back and put swivels on them all when i pulled them. sd card run out halfway through the trip lol

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Just the luck! Maybe need a swivel on the camera!😃🙂

[@lesterhertel2945]

Another very interesting video Thank you goings to be some good eating 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Thank you 😋

[@stevehoover16]

Good job boys

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Thanks brother!

[@jasondaywalker1949]

Joel done turned into Samson...geez

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

I’ve gotta do a video about that!😂

[@reavisstockard2994]

Can you use live bream in Tennessee? I can’t in NC but we could when I was a kid in Alabama. That was good for flatheads.

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Yes we can! It seems like we can get a few more flat heads when we go that route!

[@christopherrice5887]

Smelt is good catfish bait also

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

That definitely makes sense!

[@FoothillsofAppalachia-nj6cq]

Looks like the family had a great time! So can we expect to see some hot oil in the deep fryer in the near future.some hush puppies and all the fixings?😋

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

That’s not out of the question!😎😎😎

[@montyhutchens4088]

Me and my dad used to limb line, caught some of the biggest catfish. Are gar good to eat never tried one?

[@acountryboycancookwarnack5290]

I have eaten plenty... They are mild flavored. Harder to clean..

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

I’ve got a Gar- catch /clean / cook video going up on here one day soon!

[@iowaoutdoorfamily]

We hope you have a great day we will see you on the next video!

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Absolutely! Here fishy fishy!😎

[@AaricHale]

I really enjoyed the video as always! I was just talking to my brother-in-law and we haven't heard the cicadas very much out here for some reason. We both thought we would have and found it odd. How did the corn and beans come up that I sent? The reason I ask is for some reason I'm getting really bad germination rates on my beans .. I bought new ones and bought the bean inoculate and still having issues. Thanks for sharing and have a great day!

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

The corn is up but the beans didn’t! It is odd that there were no cicadas on that lake! It’s not more than 30 miles away!

[@sandramoore8204]

We live right down on the lake no cecadas here eather

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

That’s interesting!

[@revhbateman]

My cousin trot lined on lake Eufala OK. He used pieces of aluminum cans cut in stripes. He punched a small hole for the hook to go through He believed the can would mimick a shiner. Sounds crazy but I ate fish He caught yhatbway

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

I totally believe it! I caught one on a bare hook that was shiny silver!

[@Blueduckrules]

Just curious, do your fish contain a lot of mercury down there? I live up North along the Red River and our Game & Fish Dept. has an advisory about eating too many fish caught in the Red River due to mercury content.

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

We got some but not as much as up there.

[@RedWaterCatfish]

Yep it sucks but it’s not going to keep me away from walleye fingers from the red

[@dougmcghee2699]

Haven't seen Frank in a little while now ... Hopefully all is still well. ?

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

He’s been preoccupied for the past few months but he’s fine!

[@patriciaschuller4259]

Too much to tell. 8 wks in hospital with cv 1-9. Almost died 2xs. Had to be in wheelchair and on 02 for 9 mos. Came out of hospital with T2 diabetes from steroids. Out of hospital and up to now, 3 yrs later, heart has thickened, spine and back pain, on blood thinners, afib, voice changes, being tested now for amyloidosis. My life has changed sadly. My son 45 with 5 kids diagnosed 1 yr ago with lymphoma 🙏... But God still has a plan or He wouldve called me home 3 yrs ago. God bless you all.

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Oh my! I’ll pray for you and your family!

[@mountainmanmike8383]

What about depth does it matter ?

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

It doesn’t seem to matter all that much

[@mountainmanmike8383]

Awesome

[@jayd6083]

Saw a guy get snatched out of a boat by the neck when a limb line hooked him. I have never used them since, switched to jug lines....much safer

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

Good thinking!

[@HighVerbal]

Think that one catfish spinning and twirling around was trying to climb that Tree . . just like a CAT ! .. wOnder if the Fire Dept has ever had to rescue a CATfish stuck uP a Tree ??

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

😂😂😂 that may be exactly what was going on!!!!

[@HighVerbal]

@@McGieHomesteadAdventures 🤣🤣🤣

[@Keith_Hatter]

Cant say ya been fishing without a few bandaids to show for it... 😅

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

😂😂😂😂 gotta have!!!

[@TripleCreekFarmsMs]

Gar is delicious my opinion probably better than catfish

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

It is definitely mighty good!

[@EdwardVanderpool]

lets go catch fish

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

That’s a great way to put fish in the freezer!

[@spitfirered]
