I remember when a 60lb catfish was a rarity. Today's massive fish of every species is a testament to the best management in the world. And sportfishers created that.
Bro there's hundreds of 100 lbs in that River take your boat out sometime and just drive over them and see they seen that thing from their livescope they knew it was there and they drove past those all the time it's just a matter of when they want to bite or not they're very picky and they eat big
that is one hell of a fish, very nice work, congratulations. definitely cold beer worthy once you get safely home. thank goodness for todays smartphones, you pull this off back in the day and no matter what you say 3/4 of the people would say you are full of stinkbait. nice dang work fellas something to certainly be proud of
Awesome fish! Whenever I think my bait may be too big, I remember there are catfish swimming down there that could fit a human head inside of their mouths!
Ummm... You do know that catfish can breath out of water, right? Funny thing my cousin did when I was younger was to leave one on the lawn overnight when we were kids. As long as there was enough dew to keep it damp enough it would live. Sure enough, next morning it was alive and well.
Amazing catch! Can you share where/what brand is the bag you used to safely weight the fish in? I've been after big catfish and gar lately and I desperately need one of those. Thank you!
Im a boat captain on the Mississippi River in South Louisiana and on slow nights i would go tie up to the dock at a grain elevator when the unloading grain from a ship and ill catfish and catch 100 plus pound catfish all night long
Absolutely awesome catch!!!! I hit the thumbs up and Subscribed to your channel!! I catfish as well, haven't done a video in a while due to a long and expensive divorce. But I'm on the hunt for a new boat considering it had to go when the divorce was happening. I like your set up, what kind of boat do you have? Great video!!! Keep em coming!!!
Hey DoubleC!! It's been a few years since my prison release (marriage) was finalized and over. It's the financial rebound. But that's about to change, unfortunately I lost my father 2 years ago and after all of the BS I went through over his estate with people who wasn't even related to my father, I will be receiving a check for enough to get me and my boys a nice boat. Me and the boys were watching your video, and my 16-year-old said... That's the boat we need dad... I couldn't agree more I said. So I messaged you lol Thanks for the reply and good luck in your future monster slaying!!! I live in KY, and once I find that right boat, I might have to visit and try my luck catching a toad!!! Be safe me friend!!!
Lol oh man that was funny. I'm guessing he was in the process of releasing line and though he flipped the bail and thumb set the hook then let a bunch of line out. Lol awesome fellas
You should have got that fish back in the water a lot quicker than what you did that's hard on a big fish like that to stay out of water for that long but it's a good fish
