I have heard from an "anonymous source" that you can increase your chances of catching the big catfish by running a cordless leaf blower inside your boat while you fish. The "source" tells me the vibration stimulates the fishes lateral line and gets them excited. Thanks, Dave for sharing another great video.
The most under rated man on youtube. King of youtube fishing. I'm so happy he gets to do what he enjoys and its what i enjoy too. Were lucky we get to be on your boat. Thanks Catfish Dave. 27 yr old fisherman here just got a boat and a few more catfish rods and havent had luck last two trips feeling great about the next. found a cove of trees to tie off to had some monster hits tonight. next time im going earlier to cover more water, and more time like you say. thank you.
I love these instructional videos from ol' Dave.... he's so clear and precise with his information. I now understand the importance of water in the sport of fishing
This has been one of the best videos I’ve ever watched. On any topic. The boat guidance was invaluable. :) I also now know that catfish live in water. Which is helpful.
Another video of a catfishing phenomenon... but to add additional context to each video, you might want to include some good old backwoods banjo/fiddle music... just say'n
There’s actually a guy that lives on loudon with a seaplane, I’m waiting on him to land where Dave is fishing, that would complete the catfish Dave dialogue timeline
Sorry to hear about Demetrius, he's crazy. Will you play some Johnny Cash Folsom prison blues on your guitar for him . What's his bail set at, maybe we can get a go fund me account to get him out. LOL 😂 Another great Catfishing video, there were fish in the video making it another Awesome fishing video. Keep up your hard work, and stay safe on the waters.
Having a bad day, as usual thank you Dave, you make me laugh been watching you for a while! Thinking about moving, out where the big ones are, they're not in this state I guarantee! Thanks again Dave,, You make me laugh!!!!!!!
Dang blasted leaf blow'n SOB's!! Dang gum Jet boats,, What's a cat fisherman to do!! LOL Dave, you're the BEST! :) And yes I watched all the video,,not just the beginning lol
Well, you certainly opened my eyes... you are fishing for catfish...all this time I've been fishing for cats. There seems to be a difference. I find that a bowl of cream and a .410 works well for the cats in my neighborhood. ;)
Dave, you've given us two channels and I _still_ haven't missed a video on either channel. Anyone know what the catfishing is like on Kentucky Lake? I haven't heard. A cousin from Knoxville just bought this little 4-room cabin on 2.5 acres with no-bank waterfront and a boathouse with dock on Kentucky Lake. His wife is from over there and her dad's rich. I'm jealous. Nice place to stay a day or two if you have a boat. 🙂
i have been fishin for catfish for years always with 2 egg sinkers a barrel swivel and hook lol im still a beginner until i watched your channel i never knew about bumpin draggin or suspending.i live on the san joaquin river and a hour from the mother lode lakes in california.I have not been able to get out to try any of your methods until 2 days ago i fished for bass until the hour of suck then setup for cats but forgot my bait lol had chicken left it in the frig.thought to myself what am i going to do now fishing for bass in the past i have caught cats as well caught several over 15 pounds i have caught them on deep diving crankbaits while fishin for bass so i hooked up a floating bill lewis magnum rattle trap to my draggin rod big ugly stik have a spook too not 15 minutes into the drag whammmm a 22 pound channel catfish this fish looked spawned out was skinny i think it could have weighed close to 30 and on a rattle trap wow man.4 years ago i was at the ramp and saw these guys with scuba gear i asked them what they do they told me they survey the dam i asked you seen any big fish the guy got fired up and told me about the monsters down theres sturgeons 9/10 feet long and catfish as big as a man the funny thing is i never see anyone fish for either lake record for catfish is only 28 pounds.i will be getting out more now ill try the dam i hit the channel cat back by the river.this 22 pounder straighten my treble hook out maybe i should try switchin out the trebles to just a circle hook on the back of the rattle trap?thanks for all the tips dave.......
I can only bank fish and have limited mobility. I fish mostly for channels cats in PNW, USA what rod reel would you tend to use if you were in similar situation please?
Hey Dave...how do you know what part of the boat goes in the water? Also, how do the fish keep from getting wet if they live in the water??? So complicated!!
Is there any way you could share your info in detail of where what type of catfish is in depth or what time of year or day etc is best for what type. Share your years of wisdom master teach us.
Why you gotta vote is cause you? Got tired and fish it off the bank you want a deeper water. I've been watching you for a very long time you're successful on the bank and then you decided to. Get? A boat now you're being successful on the water in your boat that is why
