Use This TECHNIQUE to Catch BIG River CATFISH.

Today we are fishing the Mississippi River below the st.louis arch. We are drifting fishing for bluecats using Asian carp as bait.

[@staffenoutdoorsfilms1343]

I fished there with show-me catfish on 9/10/23 for 4 hours. I caught 3 blues 18, 24, 28 pounds and a channel and a flathead that were both 7 pounds. But you really got into em! Great video.

[@ralphnador]

Love the channel. You did a magnificent job on the boat!

[@joshuabartee8045]

You did a good job but I don't recommend being out there alone... I work in the st.louis harbor there has been alot of people that has passed away out there for less... stay safe and again good job

[@MysteriousOutdoors]

Love the new channel, I would love to see you skin a coyote more though.....LMAO.

[@Martin_Wood_]

I have a 16’ boat and it works great on the Mississippi River and Ohio river.

[@jasonelkins5912]

Always enjoy the videos bro we fish the Mississippi a lot down around Cairo

[@WYO-FAM]

I've been watching your channels for quite some time now. Great content every time. You should consider getting a fishing partner/camera man. Have a great day.

[@bartpowers9972]

Nice video thanks for doing it I liked the catch what you need an let the rest go back liked boat all so 👍😎

[@jasoncaylor2811]

Where did you launch your boat? I have a heck of a time finding boat launches.

[@rogercarlson2330]

I live on pool 9. Are you just drifting the main channel? Or is there something you are looking for as far as ledges etc? I have the same setup here as far as the cells go to. Very cool vids.

[@chinchudo]

I want to hear from you on how you store your soft plastics. I'm guessing you don't do much bass fishing but I still think you'd have some pretty solid insight. I want to hear from someone who isn't trying to sell a product. Thanks

[@user-sr8nx8ic3z]

Love this video, But I’m going to need to to get a fish scale lol.

[@dennisadams3631]

I like the video but was wandering about your trolling motor what size lb thrust it is and 12 / 24 / 36 volt and how long does the battery last in those currents and what is the average speed i guess you keep on the trolling motor.

[@suemiller7092]

Fun fishing day.

[@MasterLordProAngler]

Lets go fishin boss

[@MrSuzuki1187]

How deep is the river near the arch? I have heard it’s about 100 feet but not sure if that us correct.

[@MrSuzuki1187]

Note the different color of the water. He is just downstream from the conference with the Missouri and the two rivers have not yet blended. The brown water in the distance is from the Missouri, which is called The Big Muddy for a reason.

[@afkinthebrain3421]

I just recently discovered the Big muddy access in Arrow rock and saw this comment. Is for sure a fitting name!

[@nobreakjake2955]

The Missouri isn't called the big muddy. The big muddy is a entirely different river that comes off the Mississippi.😊

[@afkinthebrain3421]

@nobreakjake2955 the trail is called big muddy trail. In arrow rock

You earned that sub young man . you need a buddy though

[@cdschumer95]

Let me know if you come fish down here again by stl and need a hand or fishin partner! Would be down to hold the camera for ya!

[@TheIrishAmish]

This Williamson county boy would pay good money for a day trip on the river! I ran that stretch of the river for years as a deckhand, always wanted to fish it!

[@AustinFinnern]

Stl catfishing guide takes people out in this same spot he’s at in this video. Check them out of Facebook if your interested. (I’ve never met or used there service, just seen them on Facebook and heard good things about them!)

[@denniskruse6551]

Where did u put the boat in at

[@jasoncaylor2811]

I asked the same question. Good to see he isn’t answering you either lol

[@wesleyhuckabay5968]

Are blue cats good to eat?

[@sealanderadventures]

I eat them all the time, both deep fried and blacken grilled. Good eating!

[@Ghaleyni22]

[@brantbullock8248]

[@yeetyeeterton1904]

Can you eat any fish on the Mississippi

[@tophervogt5042]

[@kaseyjones1298]

If you are turning em loose man don’t gill em they may swim off fine but it will easily kill them!

[@oldguywisdom2904]

Blue cat are really good eating. Advice don't go on that river when it's windy. Really big waves
