Hi Jeff. Fun video. I stopped fishing after my mobility took a dive for the worst, but I sure do miss going Catfishing and bobber fishing for Bluegills..
From this native born arizonan, get a long handled net bro! I lost some monsters because I couldn't get them up. Personal best was actually a flathead I caught under the bridge at 48th Street and just a block north of Indian school in Arcadia. Also, favorite spot is 58th street on the same canal. There's two waterfalls that you can Walk under and on either side there's a fence. No fishing above the fence but stand on the west side the fence and across the other side. Both sides are good. Huge Asian amor carp too! Those things are like hooking up with a bull! That flathead was 38# by the way. And I have fished the Colorado near Yuma and the gila river right by it and killed it regularly. Big bluegills and carp for bait. Tight lines My friend.
So's he's in the landing zone of Sky Harbor, plane sounds low, water in canal moving south . I'm going to put him at Dobson and Rio Salado. How did I do?
I never get any luck fishing fresh water. This looks fun. I would go lighter rod and reel if it’s fun you are looking for and not food. Something like a 9’ 12-30lb rod and a 5000 size reel would be super fun. But liking this AZ fishing thing.
At 2:05... Look in the canal directly in front of you. At the bank, immediately after saying "1st fish of the day".. by the way love your videos brother 👍🏽👍🏽
Notice this an unlined canal not concrete lined. Theyre more common outside metro area. Idk this spot but if you look at canal maps and where they go once they hit edge of metro area you’re likely to find them. Hunt around online for maps& info on the various “irrigation districts” in maricopa& pinal county. Maybe this helps you
New subscriber here. Great Video... Hey that dark colored cat u got was a Blue Catfish. That's why it was so dark and had that flathead looking head to it. At first i thought it was a flathead but then i googled Blue Catfish...
Love your videos. I am new to catfishing. Why rod do you use? I want to have fun with the smaller ones, but be able to handle something bigger if it comes along. thanks for all you do to encourage and infomration us about catfishing.
I really liked your video, i think you Made a good choice with those fishing reels, i would liked you to answer a question, what did you use as Bait? Greetings from Durango, México, congratulations
Unfortunately catfish are high on the mercury charts. You should check and see where they are. Fish and game should have their levels. But catfish are great fighting fish.
Can we go fishing together? I want to try some of those canals. Have you ever tried cj’s punch bait? It holds on good and you don’t need to keep as cool.
Don't know why you keep casting across your other line for ? The catfish hole is right in front of the drain . Sit in front of their and cast straight out . That's where they at ! 😂
DUDE! the Others Grow Bigger Sooner Better! when you Cull the first one's Size and EAT IT! Every Other Smaller, and these size TASTES GOOD and is a meal.
