First channel I've ever felt strongly enough about to subscribe to. Lifelong fisherman, and my 10 year old son finally caught the fishing bug this summer so we've been hitting it hard. Keep them coming sir!

[@TheFishinMagician20]

Welcome aboard! I appreciate it. I totally get that though, it’s really tough to get people to subscribe these days so that’s awesome

[@garygrey2560]

I've always just watched youtube casually, but this was the first time I found myself checking for new content daily so had to sub. We've pulled 10 species out of our little 50 yard stretch of river at our favorite spot this summer. No monsters yet but we've lost a few that we're ripping drag so we know they're in there!

[@JoeHazlet]

Our fishing is starting to slow down. We are supposed to get down under 32 tonight. But we have trout to be stocked in our park pond around Nov. 1st. So that will warm up the fishing. Nice trip for you. Great cat action. I believe you will hit 50k soon. Be blessed. My friend.

[@mxnothing6430]

You should try magic thread on those shad, it might sound crazy with livebait, but it keeps your bait from getting picked off.

[@TheFishinMagician20]

How would you wrap them in that case? Through the hook hole?

[@mxnothing6430]

I would usually wrap the top of the hook a couple times, then just wrap around the tail.

[@lutherwake1802]

@FishingWithPorter there's where you are wrong, there's no species called talipia. The species is cichlid, unless you know more than biologists that work for National Geographic. I watched a documentary on the imported species that have been brought in taking over native fish habitat. The cichlid, the 2 species of Asian carp. And lionfish on reefs of Florida's coast

[@moore_rb]

@@lutherwake1802 Cichlidae is the family that ALL cichlids (including Talapia) are members of. Tilapia is a common (non-scientific) name used for several species. However, it is perfectly acceptable to call them “Tilapia”, without having to call them “Cichlids”. All Tilapia are Cichlids, but not all Cichlids are Tilapia… Signed, an actual Biologist (Northern Arizona University, class of 1992). Continue arguing if you must, but in this conversation, @fishingwithporter is 100% accurate in his points, and you are 100% mistaken in yours.
