Great job. Thanks for sharing.

[@1320MotorWorks]

I’ve been using the demon dragons for about a year now and I can say I caught more fish in the last year then any other year. Worth it to me! Great video as always!!

[@pedrocruz4710]

Awesome, thanks Dieter!

[@rusticoutdoors]

Your videos are always great and full of knowledge

[@DieterMelhorn]

Thank you!!! Much appreciated!!

[@bobbynewton9247]

Thanks for sharing Dieter be safe God Bless

[@allenstinson608]

The black one is actually a good idea. Dark colors are more visible in deeper or dirtier water I think

[@tfrantastic]

This seems counter intuitive…I’m going to do some research!

[@chrisclay1502]

Another great video. Thanks. I am planning on doing a test that an older gentleman told me about and would like to ask you to consider it as well just to compare results. The test is plain chicken vs chicken with anise oil added. Anyway hope you have a great year.

[@joekiss7177]

Dieter. We are all dien to find out if the flavors and scents make a difference on the chicken! Your the go to man to make the numbers happen.

[@dannycornett6151]

positive attitude. If we believe in a new rig, piece of gear, or even a new area. Gives us good vibes. And if we get skunked we never take that or use it again.Lol

[@beeteam25571]

Have you used Kastking rovers much? Any downside? I have always been an Abu guy, but I have bought 4 of the rovers and like them so far, but limited use yet.

[@ollieking6009]

Need to try Norman what boat ramp do you suggest

[@james76gore48]

Another great video. Thanks

[@DieterMelhorn]

Thank you!!!

[@jasonhawkins7568]

Ive been trying to run that float set up, when retreving the line i noticed that the hook is getting tangled up with the floats. How can i eliminate that?

[@pablo10447]

Great video once again! My thoughts with Demon dragons is the fact of countless people catching fish without these just using peg floats all of a sudden these are best thing ever. I would say they worked if you just used them by themselves with no bait. Also as you said the price is ridiculous compared to a peg float They catch more fisherman then they do fish lol

[@MasterSly53]

I am new to catfishing. 2 things. I was told if the fish slimes your line you need to cut it off and retie. is that true? What is the purpose of the Planer Boards. I don't get what they do. I am grateful for your videos and I am binge watching them every day. I am learning fast thx again

[@williammason9789]

You go there Dieter !!!!

[@DieterMelhorn]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@bretgeidel613]

I have had good luck with red and black floats but hot pink is 🔥 where I fish.

[@HooksandHammocks]

We love our peg floats! We add rattles to some and use the rest without rattles. I have NOTHING against the demon dragon type floats, I just prefer the CHEAPER floats. I have always been curios about the colors and wondered why I don't see people using black, I don't think color plays a part past 20ft of water or stained water, just my opinion. Anyway, interesting experiment!

[@rickalsip2329]

Good morning. Have you tried the piscifun honor spinning reel I just got one in the mail it's a 4000 size. Do you think it would be big enough to catch a decent size fish

[@DieterMelhorn]

I have not tried it, but a 4000 class reel should have plenty of drag for any catfish you encounter.

[@rickalsip2329]

I'm thinking of trying chicken gizzards for my catfishing. Have you ever tried them? Thanks Dieter.

[@DieterMelhorn]

you know it!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p56kmaiud7OWm6s

[@Flathead-fb5tk]

I've never tried gizzards but I've caught some nice blue cats on beef liver before. Literally on the first trip out with them. Maybe it was luck but I was impressed lol

[@robertmceuen3630]

Tried them yesterday, and did not even get one bite! I'm a believer now.

That was filmed back in early January I believe.....NOTE TO VIEWERS: my videos are not always shot recently.....LOL!!

[@3939steve]

Do you ever have a problem keeping chicken on your hook?

[@damriverboys7794]

It's amazing the quality of fish you can find when you're not looking for them some days it's better just to turn the sonar off

[@DieterMelhorn]

I agree.....there are times when the sonar makes the magic happen, and times when it leaves you frustrated.

[@robertmceuen3630]

I found a Demon Dragon on the shore of a lake I had taken my dogs to this winter. Got it tied on, and will try it on my next outing. (With those chicken gizzards)😆

You wouldn't believe the catfish I catch trolling for walleye. Flathead too. Definitely better for numbers. Size wise my pb was on cutbait.

You know it's a flathead when it just moves out and swims into its hole

[@hopha718]

I would like to speak to you concerning some info on fishing:

Awesome!!! 👍👍👍

[@flight4892]

Have had luck with them out in Missouri, but man they add up when you lose a few. Some things you just don't tell the wife...

[@DieterMelhorn]

Yes sir, they are costly, Some styles of fishing mean you'll lose less, other styles mean you'll lose more.

You can buy more economically priced rattles and paint it black.

[@TeamSexyPaintball]

You keep calling small fish good fish. You obviously go for quanity over quality, and you use heavy equipment for these 1-15 pounders.

[@DieterMelhorn]

Any fish the good Lord blesses me with catching is a good fish. Isn’t that a wonderful place to be at?!?!? The gear is not really that heavy. More medium range tackle. Overkill for the smaller fish, but it makes the bigger fish a lot of fun to catch.

[@TeamSexyPaintball]

@Dieter Melhorn Fishing just saying you put out a lot of good tips, but the chicken is a childish bait in that you catch a lot of small fish. I just feel you know too much about catfishing to keep producing low quality fiah hauls. I will agree that any fish is better than no fish. With that said, standards, my guy! You're in the big boy circle now.

[@DieterMelhorn]

@@TeamSexyPaintballchicken consistently produces fish of all sizes. From single digit fish all the way up to fish in the 50's. they all love it. While I enjoy catching trophy size fish, the majority of the time I am not targeting them. There is nothing wrong with chunking out huge baits and hoping for one fish now and then, but thats not for me. I like to catch fish.....🙂. BTW, thanks for watching!
