Why My Lund Has Not Been Seen

[@madtownangler]

I went shore fishing this morning at 4 am and got my biggest channel cat ever. It was 23.15 pounds. I was using shrimp. As soon as the sun started coming up the catfish go back deep. The spawn must be done now here

[@conrailfan6277]

Sweet!! I parking my Semi next week for four days, I'm wanting to wet a line for the first time this year here in Central Indiana!!!

[@randy7003]

I would have said 24 lbs., what's 1 ounce? lol

[@aljones238]

I went fishing at 4:00 a.m. also this morning caught a giant softshell turtle

Must be nice the spawn and the heat here is messing up all the fishing.

Dieter i enjoy your videos no crazy stuff just good info and no cussing

[@DieterMelhorn]

I also try not to whine like a petulant child……😆😜

[@stevehogan8829]

Thanks for the update Dieter,

[@DieterMelhorn]

Any time!

I have also seen the small dirt daubers clog up the outlet in a weeks time. I use to put a piece of weedeater string in mine to stop them from getting in.

[@DieterMelhorn]

theyre amazing!!

[@conrailfan6277]

Yep it's been HOT from the Midwest to the South the last couple of weeks, I'm hoping to do some night fishing here in Central Indiana, tight lines Dieter!!!!

[@DieterMelhorn]

Have fun!

[@williamledford6488]

The bites dead on Fontana, down matter what depth you try. Not anything is biting, only thing I been hooking is snags

[@richardtreat7955]

I tried fishing the Ashley river is SC today. I found out if you have heart disease, don’t fish mid early morning in the South. I could only fish for about 45 minutes before I started down hill. It looks like my fishing days are now forever going to be fishing nights. During the Summertime for now.

[@DieterMelhorn]

Stay healthy and fish when it is comfortable!

[@daymondhughes8848]

That explains why the cats i caught in NW Alabama last week didn't put up a fight. Seemed almost like dead weight. The largest were a couple of 5lb blues but they hardly fought until I tried to net them. Also caught some smaller flats and channel. Almost all were male. Caught the better ones during the day between 10am and 1pm. Bite died after that.

[@DieterMelhorn]

The ones today were very lethargic

[@NorthernviewOutdoors]

I've seen that boat motors can be a lot like toddlers at times. Can't tell you what's wrong and you have to search for what the problem is. If you're really good with motors you might have a head start but to a newbie you could spend couple hours learning your motor or taking to the local shop. Always great info and story. Safe travels.

[@thejudsonexperience]

The bite has been absolutely DEAD up here on Kerr!

[@DieterMelhorn]

I think the end is near after todays guide trip!

[@HomesickforAlaska]

100 here yesterday. Starting to feel a lot better about not being able to go back to fishing yet. FYI if that motor is having trouble peeing you should check the prostate, at least thats what my Dr. says.

[@carybruton7284]

Nice job Dietter!

[@jeffreyneely9283]

Totally enjoyed watching, like the old saying goes the best boat is a friend with one....

[@DieterMelhorn]

I love that saying!

[@joshuahendrickson8694]

I just found your channel and got excited about fishing for cats right during spawn this year. :/ But hey, looking forward hopefully to a good summer full of fishing!

[@DieterMelhorn]

Thanks for checking out the channel!! Good luck this summer!!

[@jimmydill7744]

Brand new subscriber love the channel keep up the good work.

[@DieterMelhorn]

Welcome. Thanks for jumping on board and for the comment!!

[@AskLeRoy]

Beyond a certain RPM the impellor no longer pushes water mechanically. So improper fit may have been your issue like you suspected.

[@koreywilliams4570]

Went a couple times this week so far and the bite still isnt here. I live in central Oklahoma. Going again today. Got plenty of bait biting, just no big fish. No bass or catfish.

[@raygissendanner1476]

Great information I always change the Thermostat when I replace a water pump

[@DieterMelhorn]

Good to know!

[@KevinPeoples-ys5cn]

Still spawning here in Western Arkansas But at least the rivers back to normal and in good shape after a lot of flooding early Caught two decent cats this morning just after daylight using your chicken Kool-Aid and garlic bait I enjoy watching your videos. Keep them coming thanks for sharing.

[@DieterMelhorn]

Thanks for the kind words and good luck on the water!

[@raygissendanner1476]

Great video and information thank you

[@DieterMelhorn]

Glad it was helpful!

[@WESLEYFMURDOCK]

Can you put a screen in there to help out with the cloging ?

[@koreywilliams4570]

Went out this morning and to 2 good size catfish. One just over 2 lbs and the other just under 3 lbs.

[@CarlBridgeforth]

Hope your boat is fixed it pays to have rwo boats good that you are staying calm about it.

[@slange455]

I need new impeller and have same issue finding the right off brand one lol it’s 2008 Evinrude so OEM parts are getting harder to find

[@pablo10447]

Looking forward to your i cast review video and waiting for you to come to the kayak world lol

[@DieterMelhorn]

Kayak huh???? Who knows.....I never say never!

[@pablo10447]

@@DieterMelhorn it’ll be a great moment in catfishing history!

[@jaymize5672]

Basic rule of thumb for replacing an impeller is every year, but at a minimum every other year. If an outboard doesn't have strong flow at idle, then it definitely needs an impeller. The impeller housing and gaskets need to be changed every 2-3 years.

[@tremaineangus6474]

12 years on my Evinrude now. 15 plus on my Yamaha.

I've looked into your guide trips what if we don't catch any fish

[@DieterMelhorn]

It will be a long day….😆😜😜😀😃

[@jimmylowe1233]

Still got to pay.If you don't catch anything Dieter won't be getting a tip.

[@hutrod7721]

I've caught 9 in my last 3 outings all in the shallows 3-5ft

[@jeremykillion6715]

have a water presure gadge installed you will be able to see when your impeller starts to get week ...it can save you moter

[@DieterMelhorn]

Where does that tie in at?

[@jeremykillion6715]

on your im not sure on my 60 mercury it hooks in on the water jacket and a water line goes to a gage at the helm. You can tell the minute the water pump starts to get week. check with your boat motor mechanic he will know it shouldn't run you that much. When my dad still had his shop he wouldn't let a new boat leave without one. It's good insurance and peace of mind

[@robertmceuen3630]

Cut my hand, so have not fished for a week or so. But before that the bite in Ok is great.

[@oncomics1128]

Glad it's an easy fix
