TOPWATER FISHING for INSANE CATFISH!!!

The Wels Catfish are incredibly cool fish, and using a whopper plopper to find them is about the coolest way in the world to catch them!
This video shows some pretty cool action and 3 catfish being caught. It is a crazy feeling to see one rise on a big topwater bait!

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thank you Jason, it was fun but man I’m not used to it, so tiring!

[@user-th3ll8rl7i]

I was a spincaster fisherman in my teens, and what I find interesting is how he can precisely adjust the cast by touching the reel while the bait is still in the air. I never thought about doing that.

[@fishingforCarpTucson]

Yeah flatheads are so cool i chaught a couple in europe on a carp fishing trip my biggest was only 25 pbs

They had a battery pack on the black sleeve on the left side of the belly boat. It was all mounted on like a 2x4

Wels catfish Always Attacks lures from bottom to surface you shoud try clonk fishing too

[@overratedzae235]

You gotta work that plopper man. It's cool to slow retrieve, but it works best when you stop and pop it a few times to stir that attention

[@MarsThefisherman]

Love your videos! Come to Italy and fish for wels catfish on the Tiber river or the Po river, it’s amazing!❤

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thank you! Do you know, how is the fishing different from the Ebro!?

[@FarmerFpv]

@@TyPigPatrol The Wels are huge in the Tiber River. Very explosive fish. Full of Trophy size Wels in the Tiber. Look up Northwindsportfishing channel Ty. I can't wait to go back.

[@giangi6186]

Po River is full of asp and Channel catfish too

[@MarsThefisherman]

Plus the world record catfish was caught in the Po river

[@timjhnns]

The Ebro is the perfect river for topwater fishing. The thing is most fisherman visit the big reservoir/lake where there is murky water. In the flowing river a few kilometers further down the river, there is cristal clear water with many many slow flowing/standing arms.

[@paulthompson3304]

I like it from Xerta down to the delta, much more natural and way less anglers.

[@timjhnns]

What a thrill to catch those fish and on a whopper plopper even. Well done. That Xander (sic) is the coolest looking fish! Can't wait for you to get a giant Wels.

[@sacaola4319]

what lb line do you use for the giant catfish? Also whats the lenght of your rod?

[@TyPigPatrol]

This was 80 lb braid. I htink the rod was around 6.5 feet.

[@scottwhaley4585]

The funny thing is I've seen those videos as well they make it look so easy. But you've had to work for the fish and that's what I appreciate about your show on KZbin over other shows. I catch big small mouth and throw a few on KZbin from time to time. And it looks like I've caught those fish just one after another when really I've had to work at catching those fish

[@tariqaslam1853]

I don’t know this from experience but from watching other people do it. It seemed like you were just reeling the whole time with very little pauses. Just from what the video showed. The other guys pause way more. That’s when that one hit too when it was paused. Idk great video either way. Wish you would of got a monster. Would of been epic on the tube. Good video man. 💪🏼

[@kevinostberg1729]

I hope your spider bite is healing properly and completely. Be sure to take "THE BEST POSSBLE CARE" of it. The Recluse family of spiders have very dangerous bites because of the necrosis that can occur. The proof is in the numerous amputated appendages that they have caused, including the lower-right leg of my dad.

[@tadhghayden8440]

Doing very interesting, productive, things on the mighty Ebro as expected.. I suspect that you had more investigate follow ups on the whopper than you could see in zero visibility.. A curious thing about that river when you look about you. There are no water birds!..Pretty much Zero activity! .Nothing swimming about, it's surface! Why?..because the catfish have eaten them all, even the swans and geese. The birds have learned to steer clear! So they are no longer accustomed to hunting top water prey activities ..like other rivers and lakes such as in those top water blow ups in other videos....that's my analysis based on my experience!.

[@TyPigPatrol]

no way....insane information about the birds...now that you say it, i dont recall seeing one bird on the water hahahaha and i think you are right about having more follows that i didnt know about!

Personally it doesn't matter if you don't catch nothing and you put a video out I'll watch it because I know what you can catch and you can't expect it all the time because it just don't happen you can expect perfection all the time because it never happens but the content that you put out is 100 times better than 95% of the people on KZbin

Why is good to move after 4 casts max. Cover tons of water helps. Of course, it's easier when you have a kayak. A kayak is good because you can into tight areas 😊

Wels catfish are incredibly aggressive and respond to commotion on the surface. They will routinely snag ducks / birds off the surface of the water. For an ordinary catfish you’re right but this isn’t an ordinary catfish

To fish for these monsters you need a three piece, slim taper, heavy action, graphite coated, strawberry flavored, sissy stick. For a reel you need an Ambassador 785, 25:1, fast retrieve, with a dyno powered gag drag. Three miles of hundred pound, titanium line attached to a Mr Twister Motorized River Runt, with a smelly propeller, attached to three feet of spider eyed tape worm. All this gear is on clearance at a Bass Pro Shop near you. Just tell them Gizzard Dooley sent you.
