The Morning Bite (Tennessee River)

Bite window is key to catching fish this time of year.

[@brunobarks6544]

Good morning Dave. Thanks for another fishin video. God bless

[@cryptoking2279]

[@jodycopeland1]

My three year old grandson loves to watch you

[@Leo-vf3py]

Great show keep up the good work be safe my friends

[@paulatkinson4439]

The bluegill works here in Missouri. I "heard" that the large mouth bass ain't bad either...😂

[@careyfuller6845]

I really enjoy watching you! I went to college in Jefferson City, and love seeing the area. I also love fishing, you are a master and have a great sense of humor!

[@dw6506]

I was really hoping by the 4th you would have 100,000 viewers. It’s coming but it sure is taking its time, you deserve this and more. You keep on catching and I’ll keep on watching

[@bretthong6137]

They see me rolling they hating trying to cash me a catfishy

[@dominichollisfishing]

Howdy Howdy!!!

[@tonynewton9131]

Great videos keep on catching them cats

[@FDXman65]

I really enjoy the catching bait. It’s a change of scenery than just catfishing

[@jackkeeble9272]

Nice video Dave thanks for sharing man, really enjoy your channel 👍

[@johngriffith4017]

Skipjack and White Bass bite is slooooow in all the Tennessee River impoundments the last week…worked over FOUR dam tailwaters this weekend for a half-dozen skips. Frozen bait until the bite improves, I reckon.

[@kathleensue1]

Love the early morning video.

[@benbogg5430]

Great show today Dave. Try using minnows on plain white jig heads for the skipjack and white bass, works wonders up here in Illinois

[@rgutomo8141]

Amazing success my friend

[@robertkreiling1746]

Another great fishing show . And it does not have any Stupid music either . Just good comment and the sounds of nature . Just one question . Why are you not keeping these fish ?

[@jeffchaffee1235]

Hello Dave

[@dagolf06]

That 8lb fouro is tougher than you think. I mostly walleye fish and use 8lb on my drop shot rigs. Have caught them all the way up to 30 inches on that setup and never broke one off unless i just dont retie for a long time.

[@tanyajenkins919]

Nice fish Dave not monsters but enjoy watching them be caught and released 👍 Definitely a fishing show lol

[@atchman2]

Good job! That is near where I fish all of the time. You are just SO MUCH BETTER at catching them. I live withing 5 minutes of Carl Cowan.

[@lukepryor5257]

You are a legend catfish Dave. Keep it going. Don’t worry about any dagblasted haters.

[@stevehogan8829]

Hey Dave.. Been watching you for years. IT's a great way to spend the day when I can't get out. We're hitting 95 F today and tomorrow.

[@jasperhembree5122]

Hey Dave I'm here in knoxville what u think on diwa bait runner reels

[@Terry-bb7yr]

I love early morning and late afternoon and dusk dark night when I get most of the big bites the only thing I can figure is boat traffic. Really quiet.

[@rawbsworld6604]

😂 this is a video CFD was in the video that makes it a CFD video! 🤗😝 ✌️🤙

[@bsc9399]

Nice catch

[@AnthonyGenovese]

Catch a crappie for my grandpappie and I..

[@nathancooper6196]

Shut your trap Anthony

[@stubby8663]

Thanks for the video Dave. I enjoyed it as always. Good luck & have FUN !

[@susandernick2515]

Dave, try using a white rooster tail for white bass. Works here in Ar.

[@jeffreyhooper5941]

I've been watching your videos and I think your frickin awesome I live in Michigan and would like to have a chance to fish in some of the waters in your neck of the woods keep doing your videos and have fun doing them

[@jeremystanton382]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was a dolphin on the left side at 3:50

[@russhayes4882]

That's my man ! Great video Dave !!

[@frankribble4367]

I might try a popper & fly tomorrow for white bass. My PB Channel Catfish was caught on a white bass head. I want to try a live white bass for Flathead.

[@surf6009]

Oh . So Dave is the one making the waves this time. Oh ya.

[@jonboatmorava9115]

I'm not trying to be doubtful but how could a depth finder spook skips but not the GPS located trolling motor?

[@SuperHugsta]

You are a machine Dave!!!😀

[@PackmanOutdoor]

Great video . Last weekend on watts bar I took the kids out for a few hours and we caught 32 white bass on small minnows and a split shot rig. It's not skip jack but it worked as bait

[@pisgahwatershed7287]

Use the smallest folley spoon silver in color look like small shads

[@outdoorsforachange]

Us Michigan kitty catchers cringe seeing blue gill tossed out, haha.

[@markybob_bassplaya1462]

Cool. I've used popping corks for salt water, but never tried a popping cork for early morning bait. Great idea, they cast good too. Catching baits this time of year is absolutely key. Thanks Dave!

[@LonnieAllVolWilliams]

The morning bite has been key for the last few weeks..

[@danielsojourner267]

Good catch, great video!!

[@donreed417]

Good day Dave. The party boaters aggravate me to death too. They'll cross two miles of Lake just so you can see them.

[@beinawesome9117]

CHEESE BRINGS THE GOOD CATFISH JUU JUU! Carry on

[@bidenhasdementia8657]

I enjoy watching the skipjack fishing TBH, reminds me of hickory shad in the spring. Ready for a chug bug vid too, haven't seen ole dave on a striped fish in a while

[@ix_d3monzz_xi135]

uncle daves the goat!

[@crbrepairmotorcycles6608]

Nice Boat

[@thomasallen3030]

KZbin must pay pretty good in order for you to eat filet mignon. Just a plain ribeye was $17 a lb at our local Kroger. Hope you enjoyed it! I enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking us looking forward to the next one!!

[@billylusk3515]

Ask youtube what he makes, you may be shocked

[@hikenmikes8262]

Hey, Planer Board Dave, I distinctly remember a bank fisherman named Catfish Dave who was a helluva lot of fun…and made us all laugh by trashing cat fishermen in boats. He was right.

[@IrishRebel88]

Always that one guy......

[@hikenmikes8262]

@@IrishRebel88 ok ok lol

[@cynthiaennis4621]

You seriously should come to mark twain lake in mo...water is down and we have massive blues...flats...and I know you could probably catch a record C&R...you're awesome at that Dave...Salt River had blue monsters my 5 yo at time was almost small next to em...

[@wbarney59]

Tennessee River is a fish factory

[@DaleWyman]

Were you anchored up or dragging with a trolling motor? With the dragging weights and boards figured you were using a trolling motor.

[@anthonygoodwin6971]

Dave hope you don’t mind me asking where did you get your t bar rod holders for your boat been looking for some for my

[@IrishRebel88]

Hey Dave, I hope you keep a big 'ole notebook filled with all the fishin' advice you get in the comments section. ;) lol

[@MaeRitterman]

Go get them wish I was in that boat

[@thomassevcik4097]

You should try tungsten jigs and other ice lures. They’re super small and catch a lot of baitfish

[@titoshinshi3742]

@3:50 nice shot .

[@shanejacobson261]

Dave have you ever thought about coming to Minnesota and making a catfishing video? I really like watching you and I'd like you to show me how to get it done in MN. I've put in quite a few hours with a little luck but would like to see a pro show me what I'm doing wrong. Thank you for considering

[@rickbeatty2766]

You ever do live streams. That would be pretty cool. Some night fishing or early morning. That heat sucks

[@isaclough]

Who makes your t-bar for the rod holders? Thanks

[@pauls5500]

What was that the floated next to your boat?

[@biglouie9547]

Get'em Dave 😊

[@jeffchaffee1235]

Flathead Flathead where are the Flatheads?

[@brianvandever143]

They threw away the best Flathead bait when he threw that bluegill over the side of the boat

[@tennesseevalleyrelics3459]

Running a short leader from bottom of rig with a sliding 3/4 ounce weight then another swivel with one foot leader below that with a foley spoon on bottom makes that rig really work well

[@615JOHNLEE]

Do you know the name of this rig so I can get a visual?

[@CryptoGhostie]

What deep/fish finder did you go with this time?

[@garyrichardson2915]

At what depth are you reading the water temperature?

[@cynthiaennis4621]

We use shiners and goldfish for bait...

[@tonyjones9715]

👏

[@jackiegrooms2557]

do you ever do anything on douglas lake or cherokee lake them the 2 lakes i fish

[@travisconnolly2609]

What net do you have?

[@markhicks8377]

[@chriswalls5831]

Big catfish river

[@robertmercer469]

What brand of boat u have and length

[@bobdixon532]

Have you ever tried Rooster Tails for skipjack and white bass?

[@FDXman65]

What happened the the big cast net that sinks to the bottom???

[@cowman540]

Dave can you please tell me the difference in a white pearch an a croppie?? Love the show its a fishing show with a lot of tips to help you catch catfish thanks Dave

[@JodyMcCarty]

Same thing

[@bretthong6137]

They see me rolling they hating trying to cash me a catfishy

[@markhoward9936]

When you’re out there cat fishing are you drifting or are you anchored down?

[@johnadams9791]

Know where any big ones are?

[@cynthiaennis4621]

Heck I would have stuck that blue gil in his top and give him a little side slice caught a catfish here in mo...

[@MaeRitterman]

Where is your crawfish or large worm then you may get. Bite go get them

[@richardpayne4396]

Bet if you knew boatfishing was much fun you would have been doing it sooner

[@jimpalmer4916]

Everytime you go to eat a bite...I can't say how many times.

[@josephcain8643]

I have 5 single piece St Croix rods that I use. feel all bites

[@russellmullins5056]

Good videos. I enjoy them. How about giving us a estimated weight. Thanks.

[@bigtiny1102]

What are the rods put above the bait before casting?

[@careyfuller6845]

Drag weights I think you are talking about

[@mrhairyshat]

The rattle float?

[@jerrythomas4457]

That’s a Tennessee butt plug. Those Tennessee catfish guys like to have a butt plug handy.

[@chadsadventures8419]

Bait is tough to get this year on the Ohio river the shad have been hard getting 😩

[@charlesoverton]

Can you show us how to clean and cook a catfish.

[@stevevictor1586]

Deiter Melhorn has a podcast

[@ronniegreene1274]

What is a skipjack and what in the world is a yellow bass..yes im from n.c. lol

[@jo16ka52]

how do you tell a male from a female catfish?

[@maharper100]

Dave, I know you will laugh at this, go out carp fishing, cut that carp into large pieces, no scales, use it for catfish bait. Why not, it works, nice and bloody.

[@georgeprice9882]

How fast you draggin

[@ethansimplot664]

Did you hear the blue catfish state record was broken? 122 pounds!!!

[@beinawesome9117]

WHITE BASS KICKS ASS! Carry on

[@calvinboykin4777]

Have you ever hooked a fish that was too big to land.

[@cowboysfan-rw4rf]

Dagblasted guy keeps wooooing in my videos

[@jerrythomas4457]

Boy you done got that cheese gut catfishers Dave. You better trade them there cheese sticks for some of them there carrot sticks.

[@danieljohnson8437]

Vienna Sausages, works well.. If you, pack yer,buttcrack +×+ velveta cheese! On Wednesday.

[@johnmeyer6537]
