Small Catfish Catches Big Catfish

[@leir2005]

What you call "fun size" would a personal best for most people. Myself included

[@branchtana315]

Yep! If I caught one of his "fun size" fish, it'd probably turn into my "big fish story" that I'd tell people about for years. LOL

[@KayakCatfish]

Haha! It is easy to get spoiled fishing here. Thanks for watching!

[@rogerbraswelljr.923]

My personal best was carp fishing two years ago. 30 pounds. Found a nice clean carp pond with some trophies. Healthiest pond I've seen. Perfect eco system and the owners keep the ariators going

[@rogerbraswelljr.923]

My personal best 30 pound carp 2 years ago on a carp/catfish lake with a perfect eco system and owners keep the bubbles turned on. The lake is super clean with some 50/60 pound trophy cats. I'm going to quit tossing oatmeal and go heavy on cut baits

[@rogerbraswelljr.923]

The fish there are healthy. I've seen some sick fish in other lakes where the owners should be arrested for animal cruelty

[@gabrielmartinez8650]

I love how none of your videos are click bait and they never disappoint

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you Gabriel!

[@FDosty]

For me, one of the toughest decisions I make on a fishing day is when to quit.

[@KayakCatfish]

I agree. Thanks for watching!

[@atticus0715]

If there's one thing I've learned from watching you and Catfish Dave is "You gotta have patience." Nice catches.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Tony!

[@artschamberg4470]

I like the way you release the big breeder fish and keeping the smaller ones. Fun Fun Fun

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you Art!

[@jaye1701]

My son and I love to watch your videos together. We love to fish even though we seem to catch nothing. 😎 But it’s more important to just spend time together. But we sure love to watch you reel in those monsters!!! As my boy says, Dad his dinks are huge and his tanks are massive!! You are a true gentleman and truly a joy to watch.

[@KayakCatfish]

Than you! I appreciate you and your son watching.

[@johnvanzandt2040]

You gotta love that shallow water bite. Those big girls run like freight trains towards deeper water most of the time.

[@KayakCatfish]

That’s the truth. They seem to fight harder in the shallows.

[@pamelaepperson8291]

In a blink of an eye things can change. Just like hunting 👍. This was fun. Thank you for sharing your video. I love watching them.

Don’t know which I like better - The screaming drag Or A 41 inch fish swimming away after being released

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Mike!

[@shanesstilltalking]

I work in radio marketing and I never miss a video. MAKE TEXT TONES! Stripping drag sound, You saying, “Another dang ole’ channel cat”... they’d sell! Another thumbs up.

Another quality video. We are getting a ton of rain here in SC below you. Most our river systems are at major flood stage with more marching our way. Tight lines

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Richard! We have had some flooding here too. Hopefully the weather calms down soon.

[@marktempleton346]

I heard yesterday it was raining a lot down there but the water looks pretty clean. Way to catch them when things are slow Justin.

[@KayakCatfish]

This video was filmed before the flooding started

[@rondellschuyler7074]

Thanks for the videos. You have taught me to forget about nightcrawlers and start using Bait fish for big cats. I am sold on bait fish.

[@KayakCatfish]

Awesome! Hope you catch some monsters.

[@lynnbennett7370]

I knew this was going to be a good video after the bait trip.If I fished all day and only caught one fish like any one of those,I'd be happy. Thanks

[@KayakCatfish]

Thank you Lynn!

[@thomasrakestraw7608]

What I have enjoyed watching over these last couple of years is that you've literally become a pioneer in kayak KZbin channels. I've been with you since you've had like 3,000 subs and I've enjoyed every video since. I wish you the best bud. I hope one day you'll be able to do this for a living!!

Your last video has me pumped for this one!!!

[@briansuttles6743]

Nice catch, you make it look so easy. It's great that you wait for the bite, most won't. No fish, time to move. Stay safe.

Here in PA we only have Flathead and Channel no Blues. We use cut bait for Channels. We always use live bait for Flatheads. Live Trout work the best.Suckers a close 2 ,Sheepshead 3 everything else after. God bless

[@ryanpintabone9754]

Must be on the western side of pa. Here on the Delaware live eel is king for flathead

[@attitudeadjusted9027]

The best flathead bait bar none is live bullhead.

[@thomasjarosz7406]

That's what so great about catfishing . Everywhere you go there is a favorite local bait that works great. God bless

[@attitudeadjusted9027]

@@thomasjarosz7406 God has blessed me thank you. There's something about a bullhead that flathead can't stand. I've caught flatheads completely gorged full and yet they'll eat a bullhead just to kill it seemingly. I've had them on my side view come straight to them from along way away just to eat em. God bless you as well.

[@thomasjarosz7406]

Bullheads do work here in western Pa ,they are just real hard to get. Stocked Trout are more common God bless
