That paddlefish was cool.

[@AikenAngling]

@@Paul_Kasper haha yeah that thing tricked me. I can usually tell what I’m fighting but he kept me guessing!

[@jamesdavid1714]

That's a cool looking fish! What a convenient handle in front of the mouth 🤣

[@AikenAngling]

@@jamesdavid1714 haha yeah their mouths are literally like big paper bags so it’s about the only way to hold them!

[@daleperine4202]

Good morning Parker! Can you show us your set up sometimes. I was wondering if g do you use a 3 way swivel for your set up.

[@AikenAngling]

@@daleperine4202 mornin brother! Yeah sorry I didn’t show it in this vid, I almost always show it in my spillway stripe videos so check my most recent ones of those! I’ll be sure to include the rig in all vids from now on. But to answer your question, no, I just use a two way swivel, I tie my main line to one end, and then my leader in the other. I use a palomar knot to add a 1oz weight to my leader, about 6 inches above my lure. Using a palomar allows me to take the weight on and off without cutting the line. 3 way swivels are great to use here for catfishing since you want your weight to be separate from your lure, but I find trying to cast a three way over and over for stripes just gets too tangled. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching man!

we usually go fishing there we catch monster catfish!!

[@AikenAngling]

@@Chris_6x it’s a great spot! When there’s current all the big fish come out, and when there’s no current the crappie fishing is awesome!

[@CloudFT]

Can i ask you about your bomber rig for hybrid? What jigs do you use for them? My bomber rig sink under when I cast it out it that supposed to happen? Or I am just using to heavy of a jig?

[@AikenAngling]

@@CloudFT it shouldn’t sink much, sometimes I’ve notice mine sinking a bit, but they usually still stay really close to the surface so as long as your line is tight it shouldn’t sink, but it could be your jug weight, I only use 1/4 or 1/8oz jig heads with the Bomber rig.

[@CloudFT]

@@AikenAngling oh okay, what the size of the hook do you use?

[@AikenAngling]

@@CloudFT my current favorite jig head is the “trout eye jig head” made by Z-Man. I usually use 1/4oz, but will sometimes use 1/8. They both come with a really strong and compact size 2 mustad hook. You can find em online easy and sometimes bass pro carries them

[@AndrewAbashidze]

daaamn that fish looks so cool and weird

[@AikenAngling]

@@AndrewAbashidze and this is just a small one, they get over 100lbs!

[@AndrewAbashidze]

@@AikenAngling its a damn ddinosaur. That dam is such a cool place. So many different species man. Top spot

[@AikenAngling]

@@AndrewAbashidze yeah it’s one of my favorite spots for sure, it’s about the only place around here I can get close to the fights saltwater fish put up!

[@AndrewAbashidze]

@@AikenAnglingmight be nice 😢 carnivore fish in my country are usually under 1lbs(eu perch) and sometimes max you can get is around 10lbs pike or catfish and thats extremely rare.

[@Dzikidzikdzikidzik]

wheres the giveaway results

[@AikenAngling]

@@Dzikidzikdzikidzik the drawing has been done, but I don’t post the vid until after the reel is shipped to the winner so I don’t have to deal with scammers pretending to be the winner. It will be up very soon, sorry for the delay.
