Great video, Justin. I think blue catfish are beautiful. Fun to catch, and 15 lbs and under are great eating.

[@johnavonyates4105]

You should call that rig the Carolina stinger. Good trip man.

[@davidknight1612]

That's a beautiful mourning sunrise!!

[@kensprague1608]

Luv the sunrise over the water waiting for the fish to bite. My favorite thing to do. Just got home from my own fishing trip. Big redfish bite. Luv the fight.

[@subarumanrp233]

You may be ALOT of things,but ONE thing is sure, You're definitely NOT lazy! You gotta get up pretty early to catch the sunrise! Thanks for the inspiration! Great video!

[@suasponte6230]

Good vid. Let's do some catfish cooking recipes with the baby cheetah.

[@tomw3380]

You used to use shears to trim the fins off but not lately. Do we need to call the dive team out to recover them. 😂. Always enjoy the videos.

[@KayakCatfish]

Haha! They are in the other kayak

[@brianforrest3377]

Getter done😊

[@brandonedwards9812]

My grandpa said if the sun is up you're already late, they call em catfish because they hunt at night. The boss cats feed late. Catch em if you can!!

[@randallallison3680]

If I was down there I'd be right there with you buddy

[@benjaminbernard8115]

I'd love to come reel in all your fish for ya justin lol

[@calebpartenheimer7636]

Quick question. When you and others say that catfish can tend to get down down in the mud on the bottom in the winter to get warmer, do they just lay on top of the mud or are they digging completely underneath of it out of view? I ask because I got a deal on an underwater camera that I'll toss in while my poles are also in. While I pull it across the bottom (unless I put in under a bobber) I have seen bass, and other smaller fish, and even crawfish, but I have yet to see a full view of any catfish in one of my local lakes that I caught catfish in this past summer. I saw the whiskers of one in a different lake further away but then it swam out of view. So once again, do they get completely out of view under the mud, or are the visible on top of the mud? I'm going mad trying to figure out why I'm not seeing or catching even a small one right now. Can't believe I havn't had atleast a few come into view. Thank You.

[@KayakCatfish]

They will bury down in the mud. Thats why a lot of fish you pull up will have mud on their sides and back.

[@calebpartenheimer7636]

@@KayakCatfish Completely buried? Like completely underneath the water?

[@chetyoder6248]

Wondering what water temp you think carp fishin starts? still iced up here, jonesin for a tug on the line

[@KayakCatfish]

They bite all winter. I just haven’t went after them in the cold months

[@darrellsmith2652]

What size sinkers are you using? I enjoy the content!!

[@KayakCatfish]

8 ounces

[@johnvanzandt2040]

Another good video Justin. What level are you up to on candy crush, I know you play while waiting on the bite

[@KayakCatfish]

I’m currently on level 5433

[@jamestrivette42]

Do you ever try carp fishing this time of year?

[@KayakCatfish]

I need to try some carp fishing this time of year but I never do

[@ralphwood4814]

Hey Justin, I live in Arizona and we don’t have skipjack. But I do see you catching an awful lot of big skipjack, do people eat those if the river water is not contaminated? Or do they just get used for bait.😊

[@KayakCatfish]

I don’t know of anybody that likes to eat them.

[@ralphwood4814]

@@KayakCatfish well, thank you for giving me an answer. I know one thing it seems like the catfish sure like them I’ll catch you on your next video. Take care.

[@peterderidder9922]

Why do you never try half backed skip jack ? baking with somme spices only the outside of the skip jack ?? So you can still hook it verry well ;-) it it is worth a try ! somme days if you catch nothing you could try to turn the tide with this . Lots of days if the fish dont take the traditional baits they will take sommething they dont know, just to taste it ;-)

[@tobysmith8727]

Have you ever caught any other kind of fish besides cats, just at random. Like maybe a sturgeon, or maybe a paddlefish. Something unexpected?

[@KayakCatfish]

Yes

[@johnnyreb1475]

What reels are you using?

[@KayakCatfish]

Shimano Tekota. All my gear is listed in the video description

[@Thatdamfishingguy]

Hey Justin how you doing brother

[@timothymcvay7286]
