That was bad/kick azz riding. I've always wanted to ride on one. I rode on a hover craft while in USN. That was a blast but biggest adventure was on a power boat in Chesapeake Bay with pilot, copilot, navigator hitting high speed over 120 mph.

[@EoffZooStaff]

That boat looks legit fun and terrifying all in one!!! Loved the fact that your hair was blown back and stayed that way when the boat stopped. I am very glad to see the silver bullet back and ready to dangle!!! Love your videos!!!!!

[@johnbutterfield6052]

Airboats are truly unique and can blow your mind. I worked at a small airboat shop in Kansas for a little while. They are just as fun to build as they are to ride. It’s looks like Areo Wake is a new company best of luck to them!!!

[@nathanhershberger3723]

That boat is absolutely amazing, so excited to see you go bowfishing again, it's been a hot minute since you and Rob would go, Outlaw also went with ya a time or two.

In my experience, river cats feed allot on crawfish....raw SHRIMP is my go to bait for river catfishing! I've caught some decent cats in the Dan River her in southern Virginia using shrimp! Deep pockets, big boulders, or undercuts along banks (similar to trout fishing) is where I tend to target. That was a cool ride 😎

[@johndrx165]

[@josephgarrigan3385]

@LakeForkGuy My friends and I used to jug fish the Mississippi. Cut bait (flying carp) with jugs in the current during low water or dropping conditions. Higher water pull into pockets. Blue cats are opportunistic feeders and feed more in moving water. Also have better meat because they aren't sedative/bottom feeders such as channel or flatheads.

[@dirktaljaardt8591]

Hi Justin. My experience here in South Africa with our catfish is that with thunder showers/storms they totally go off the bite

[@tatertots-n-soup]

Make sure you are in the very deepest part of the hole. That is where the constant action will be around where the fattest pig is. That fish will never bite but the others struggling to keep second best spot will be aggrevated and semi active even when the fish are not active.

[@jimmiemacd3603]

I’ve tried those freeze dried shiners before. They’re a waste of money, you’re much better off catching your own bluegills or perch and fishing with those live or cut for catfish.

[@brentvanwie1961]

One of the key things about catfish is fresh bait cast net shad and freeze them they don't last long after they thaw but other than chicken and beef liver for small channels if you can buy it at Walmart it isn't good catfish bait

Seen Mullet Man in a friend of his airboats and they launched off of dry land too.... Those boats have to have a special type of bottom to be able to go over gravel and rocks like that over and over. Maybe its just a Texas thing...and thats ok!
