PUSHING 100 LBS!!! Catching My NEW PERSONAL BEST Blue Catfish

Wow, what a day! It was just like any other day. The first spot I tried I couldn't get a fish. I then anchored up on a current seam and loaded up on my new personal best blue catfish. The fish bottomed out on my 80 lb scale, so I had to do some measurements. There is a mathematical calculation you can use to get an accurate weight of a fish. Length X girth X girth / 800. I put in the measurements and the calculation came out to be 97.60 lbs, a new personal best for me. I am very thankful and blessed to catch a fish like this. The fish was safely released and ready to fight another day, giving another angler the fight and fish of a lifetime.

[@ChattCats]

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@muddyrivercatfishing]

Congratulations Joe! That was a good fight!

[@ChattCats]

Thanks, Kris!

[@RealisticFishing]

[@ChattCats]

Thank you very much!

[@ramrodrymensnyder2648]

Also...i REALLY appreciate when people post all the details (rod/reel/ DATE/water temp, etc) Thank you again for sharing and big thank you for releasing !!!

[@ChattCats]

[@3RiversFishingAdventures]

Congrats Joe, that is an awesome fish!

[@ChattCats]

Thanks, Darren!

[@coreysellars2764]

Thats a dream fish there. Favorite bait i would have to go with live bluegill.

[@JohnRidleyFreedom1]

What a monster and congrats on your new PB! That pole bend was sick! This is the very reason why catfishing keeps me coming back for more.

[@ChattCats]

Every day is a new day. Fish on and tight lines!

[@tylervilbert5071]

Man I can’t believe this was 2 years ago and I’m just now seeing it! This is amazing! Raw shrimp has always been the best catfish bait for me, and I’m not that big into cat fishing either. But this video makes me want to get more into it.

[@ChattCats]

The thrill of a giant on at the end of your line is quite the rush!

[@catmastercatfishing7436]

You can't get no better than that brother 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣

[@PoleBenderFishing]

That's what I would call a Hernia Cat. Real beauty you caught there.

[@ChattCats]

Thanks!

[@HookFaced]

Raw Shrimp is my favorite You need to ask Santa for a bigger scale !!

[@fishinnate669]

Wow...an absolutely tremendous battle. Watching the rod bend was something else.

[@fishingwithrick3991]

My favorite catfish bait is Sonny's Super Sticky Catfish bait, blood formula. I fish for eaters mostly, no trophies. Fifteen to twenty pounders are the biggest I ever get and I put those back because they don't taste good. Mostly on Percy Priest, Old Hickory and the Cumberland here in Nashville. Lots of great catfishing here. Love your vids! Merry Christmas!

[@ChattCats]

Thanks, Richard! Merry Christmas!

[@mississippimud3118]

Congrats Joe, that is a fish of a lifetime man!

[@ChattCats]

Thanks, Chris!

[@benjicooper4738]

He said Merry Christmas to myself 😂 love it🤟

[@emkay0530]

Congrats on that monster of a fish!!! Goes to show ya with perseverance and time to learn the body of water will someday yield great results. I mainly fish for Flatties, so my favorite bait is a toss up between Bluegill and Greenies.

[@coryallison9750]

Roses are red Violets are blue I came for 11:06 And so did you

[@ChattCats]

Lol

[@mrbeekdavis597]

Thank you

[@OmarTheAtheistAziz]

[@MrD-on6dp]

That cat is sturgeon sized! I would love to catch one someday!

[@baitammo4652]

Congrats friend! I'm supper happy for you! Thanks for sharing your outings with us!!

[@ChattCats]

Thanks for watching!

[@fishingwithrick3991]

Wow!!! Awesome fish, awesome job!

[@DanSanChannel]

Live perch I think is the best to use. Great video. I'm a new subscriber who just rung your bell!

[@ChattCats]

Awesome!! Welcome to the channel!

[@kevenjohnson7747]

Other than bluegill which is far & away my favorite I'd say...shrimp.

[@nebraskatpp]

Keven Johnson ... On the swift Missouri River... our favorites for Flat heads were...LIVE goldfish and bluegills. For tournaments and charters we preferred Chubs and was never without nightcrawlers. The University of Missouri did a study on what the number one catfish attractant was, and discovered it was.... 'Human Saliva'.... I guess the old wives/fishermen's tale about spitting on your bait before using doesn't sound so far fetched now does it?

[@tommycornforth5150]

Man you have to love the way those big ones fight and rip drag! Congrats what a Thank, can't wait to see you pull more out like that. That pig has a bigger waist than me, I'm a 38 and I feel fat.I enjoyed your videos. Can't wait to see the next one.

[@ChattCats]

Thanks, Tommy! FISH ON! Tight lines!

[@richardanderson2837]

Gorgeous fish, Joe... I most commonly used frozen anchovies, when I lived in California, for channel cats... it poured puts out a real nice scent. Really pulls them in!!! Keep putting out the great videos, Joe. We outdoorsman really enjoy and appreciate them, thank you And merry Christmas!

[@ChattCats]

Thanks, Richard! Merry Christmas!

[@kayrnmalone723]

Can't really choose. Bluegill live and cut, minnows, night crawlers, chicken livers. Never had luck with the dip baits or dough baits

[@jadeddragon4254]

That ain’t a fish that’s a freakin river monster !!!

[@agentcharles1632]

JaDeD dRaGoN and his name is Jeremy Wade

[@Jml1313]

Woah.. That was awesome! I can't wait till its above freezing here, so I can try and catch a few of those beautiful blues!

[@ChattCats]

Thanks man! Yeah, this has been a brutal winter. Hope you catch some nice fish this year. Tight lines!

[@issiahjordan103]

Great Fish Joe a real beast...... My best bait you could never go wrong with are them good ole Jumbo Red worms.....

[@mikecha1957]

Brother what a fish that was...Holey moley...Now that's what I'm looking for...I use nothing but cut shad or chicken breast....

[@mikecha1957]

Merry Christmas Joe to you and yours...

[@ChattCats]

Merry Christmas, Mike!

[@bobbyking2819]

Never put yourself in a box with bait...

[@ChargingActive]

[@ChattCats]

Lol.

[@edmonmitchell7024]

[@EliteBassStickFishing]

💯💪👊LET'S GO!!! AWESOME "CAT"CH!!! U ALWAYS DELIVER BRO!!! STAY ON TOP AND KEEP UP THE GRIND!!! CONGRATS ON UR PB!!!

[@michaelbates9083]

[@Luca-xv3oy]

Man nowadays chicken breast is so expensive I’ve been using bluegill

[@JDYGBoys]

Live Blue Gills

[@sbfreedom6791]

[@billywright2429]

creekrunner 207 wut size do you catch I love using White perch

[@Cat-Fish420]

What a monster!! I always look forward to your uploads brother. And for catfish I typically use cut up boneless chicken breasts, marinated in the oils out of a couple cans of tuna fish in vegetable oil. Its what my grandfather always used.

[@vabearhunter401]

Way to go joe!! Awesome job handling that beast by yourself! ! That Monster Rod and okuma did the job!! I like using live and cut bluegill for blues and flatheads here in VA.. TIGHT LINES

[@ChattCats]

Thanks, Chris! Merry Christmas!

[@thecatdaddyexperience1222]

[@watcher01a17]

I use live 8"-12" Big-head Carp for big flat-head and blues. Great video as always, and way to go on that MONSTER.

[@ste-bow771]

Catalpa worms have always been a favorite. Cheap, plentiful, and easy to store.

[@AllSystemsGoSound]

[@ChattCats]

Thanks man!

[@tylermccarty5450]

Can’t get enough of these videos. That’s crazy catch I bet it was like hooking on back of a bus. Personally I like to use live shad In running water

[@erichvonglahn5314]

[@petenunnery2292]

Another great video from Chatt Cats. Man, what a tank of a fish. I don't know how you picked it up and put it in the boat. Can't wait too see more videos by you.

[@ChattCats]

It took a while for me to lift it over and into the boat and then my GoPro battery died.

[@jeffmorris8768]

Beautiful fish Joe,When you measure a fish lay him on his belly with his nose against the edge of your boat and measure under him from nose to tip of tail closed.You measured him following down the contour of his head.Never the less he is a true beast.Congratulation,s.

[@ChattCats]

Thanks for the tip, Jeff!

[@ScottyhillakaFishn4Him]

Great video brother! That's a monster!!! And I'd have to say by person preference, I like using shad and skipjack but my personal best caught a few months ago was on sucker fish. I like cut bait. It outdoes all the rest.

[@JaviGaming22]

Awesome catch !!!! And fresh cut shad for sure

[@HmongGuitarPlayer]

Love that catch. I live in Georgia and been up there to fish but have not caught anything near that size yet. Good to see you let him go I hope to catch him one day. Keep it coming dude. 👍

[@ChattCats]

Thanks for watching! Fish that big are rare. Always release the big ones! Tight lines!

[@brandonhenry1376]

Wow what a beast, I've never fished Nickajack. But might have to make a trip down there. As far as bait, I mostly use cut skipjack or shad. But in the spring I'll use bluegills for flatheads.

[@PCMESS]
