I love to fish. I dont like catfish. I cant get them off the hook. You fish like my dad he passed last year. That was his biggest hobby. He fished with anybody. God Bless you!
“If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord” - Romans 14:8 “My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever” - Psalm 73:26
“So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; and it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body” - Corinthians 15:42-44
I lost my best hunting and fishing buddy of 50 years just three years ago now, and things like this sure bring him back strong. We used to go to all the pawn shops in Memphis regularly and buy the old saltwater rods and reels that folks were getting rid of after they had done with them just for fishing tight lining the Mississippi River for Catfish and casting for Striped Bass. Well done on getting your views. Thanks.
Dave, congrats on being the real deal. As far as views are concerned, when I found your video you were at 1.2 million, so who needs more authentication than that! Those catfish were legit! Keep doing it right!
Yup, "Dry Humor Dave" He's a good ol' boy, that's for sure 👍 "Big Net for Big Fish!" Now, Dave, y'all need to go find yerself a 100 ft hole fer that 100 lb fish, for that 5 lb net that's way to big for the kinda fish that y'all catch, Ha! Good video there Dave! HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸
Good Luck Brother !! You are me years ago , no matter what the weather , work day or not , I was on the water !! Then got disabled and can’t drive anymore but you bring back so many memories !!
Great presentation, laughing my ass off, ain't no sugar coating and just telling it like it is...no surprises, no grooming the viewers...it is what it is, I can respect that, man I miss the good old days.
Aint this just like some old wore out jobless fisherman who’s wife want speak to him because he want work, get a job to support or even help his wife support the family, trying to get more views than someone else as he says just started and is making more money than he is. Well dude it don’t work that way.
I wish i would have had a smarrphone or go-pro when we were young and fishing. From Cumberland River Cats to Dale Hollow & Centerhill smallies, kentuckys and largemouth( Toho and St johns) to Niagra river. We fished where we lived and worked. Keep on catching ✌️
Catfish Dave, I've been sucked in to looking at those videos off that bent rod thumbnail. Not putting him down cause ya fish where ya know but we know what we're getting when we watch you and thats why we keep coming back. Keep throwing and we'll keep watching.
You got a nice big bend on the last pic with the anchor! LOL The two big Blues make it all legit though, & your dry humor put it all over the top! Very entertaining!
Catfish Dave lays down another one. I learned a lot about how to proceed with my future fishing pics. This guy is more entertaining than anything on tv except for Yellowstone, maybe. Never quit this Dave. You have created excellence the likes of which are seldom found.
What’s he using for bait. I didn’t here that and watched from the beginning 😳. Surprised it was a blue Cat and not a flat! What’s the rods? The med /heavy ones
Catfish Dave, this the first time I’ve bumped into one of your vids! Proud to add my view and like to your goal. Great tip about the Fig Newtons! Sometimes, we need such advice!
I remember looking over the side of the boat as a kid and seeing 5 big channel cats swimming in V formation near the creek in about 10 feet of water. one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen fishing. Happy fishing Dave. Great vid and Great catch or should I say catches. Cheers From Marc, Constance bay, ON, Canada.
Hope you get there! I agree with you on the net. Had my walleye net in the boat instead of my big one and I struggled getting a 42 pound flathead in it
Dang bro. That was a tank.. got a 35 pounder out in Tennessee, actually right out where Dave fishes..east Tennessee. I believe dave lives in Kodak... either way, middle and east Tennessee have some GNARLY catfishing spots..
@Jesus has given you all. Repent or die. I use the King James Bible, and the Modern English Bible, so I'm right there with you on that! Jesus truly did preach Repentance, and most of all, he proved just how much he loves us, by giving his own life, and shedding that deep red, precious shed, Blood for us on Calvary. The place that he was crucified at, had another name: Golgotha, the place of the Skull, or in other words, Golgotha, the place of Death. Think about it this way, though: Even at that place of Death, life was won, purchased, BLOOD-BOUGHT, for us there! From The place of Death, sprang the love-gift of the potential of Eternal Life forevermore! All we have to do, is turn to God in faith and repentance, and do so in that name that is above every name, the Mighty name of Jesus! If we'll humble ourselves, pray, seek God's face, and turn from our wicked ways, then he will hear from Heaven, forgive our sins, and heal our land! (2 Chronicles 7:14)! Praise God for his promise of Eternal Life, through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Uh Dave....thanks for the advice on the fig newton's and prunes mentioned in an older video. But TMI!! TMI!! ☣☣ NICE BLUES!!!! I've looked at the mad cat rods. Nice rods but a little expensive. On the net...you really need the net at that size for those fish. Those are some beasts! I do most of my fishing from shore. I use big rods for distance and shorter rods for in close. Take care. And keep catching those beasts from the deep!!!
This video just randomly popped up on my RU-vid suggestions. I usually don't watch fishing videos because I would rather be the one fishing. I am so glad I watched this. Catfish Dave is now on my watch list. That is a pretty catfish.
My husband and I love your videos. They are insightful. Someday we would love to meet you on a fishing trip. We are both fishing livers. We love doing it together. Keep up the amazing videos.
Just saw your video and I enjoyed my fishing trip with you. I am sitting here drinking coffee "MORNING WAKEUP" remembering the last time went fishing. Time in Texas I caught an 122 lb Alligator Gar, and I had never seen one before, Wish i had a camera then. When I threw him back my brother looked at me like i was stupid. "Well I get to catch him again when he is bigger."
I enjoyed learning from you. I am a person who fishes for fun and it isn;t a big deal if I catch anything. Back in the early 1990's in the Spring, I was fishing in a trout tournamnet at Big Bear lake in Ca. east of LA. I didn;t cae what I caught and I dwcided to fish the flats on the opposite side of the lake furthest from the Dam. I was using a old Mitchel GArcia spinning reel 301 I bought for myself in 1966 with a 6' Garcia rod I bought the same day using 4 lb test, a Bass hook and a large night crawler. I was sitting back with a Beer and h=got a huge hit. I caught a cat fish over 10lbs and ironically, the net was too small but it helped me get it onto the boat. This was the largest fresh water fish I ever caught. I released it of course. It wa a lot of fun. Thanks for bringing back that memory. This was 30 years or so ago.
Back in my day...We use to catch flatheads under the spillways of the Cape Fear River using a whole chicken tied to a sand anchor and hooked to a winch. Man how times have changed.
Catfish Dave, you are going to get the 400,000.00 views that you want. You put in the work! I love your videos, not boring, you show all the things that we fisherman go through, all the good and bad.
That was a fine video Dave. I enjoyed watching you catch those two fish and the music too. So many critics these days. It's amazing how much knowledge some folks can gather about everything and never leave their couch. 😏
Greetings from Oregon. I'm an avid fisherman and I really like catfish Dave. He's a good fisherman. Im just now watching this video and it's at 2 million views and 33 thousand likes. Good job.
Well you’ve done a fine job Dave , I didn’t know that Blue Cats would hangout at over 70 feet , Also never seen a Blue Cat above 40 pounds , You’ve Proved It !! And to catch 2 nice Blue Cats at over 70 feet blows me away - Thanks Dave - You’re The Man - I Used To Limb Line , Pole Fish And Trot Line In South West Missouri ( TABLE ROCK LAKE ) , Never Caught A Blue Cat Over 40 pounds - Thanks Again 🤙✌️🤠
I just started watching a few days ago. Love your videos. What I am learning is to take as many different baits with you as possible, try different spots, try differt techniques, learn to use the fish finder. You have been a tremendous help to me already. Thank you Catfish Dave! I forgot one last tip. Always take some cheese to nibble if the fishing gets slow.
I was just about to change the channel until you brought out that bologna sandwich on a day old dry baguette. Then you caught that big ole Catfish. Don't listen to those negative comments. You are the Capt. of your boat. Keep doing what you do and you will always have more people that will stand with you rather than criticize. Three thumbs up!
I cracked up when the anchor came out! I think I have watched almost all of Catfish Dave's videos. I make people laugh with the line I got from Dave: When the woman is irrate, but you have fresh bait, go fishing! I found catfish Dave from a mention from I_fish who also has a dry sense of humor. Keep up the good work!
Holy what! I was a little surprised when you released the first one, but good on you. Then I was also surprised when you released the second one. What do you eat?
*This my 1st video watching you Catfish Dave an I subscribe immediately. An you're right about them Fig Newtons, they will clean you out when you eat enough of 'em. Hope you get that 400K view 💰💰💵💵.*
I just stared watching your videos and I love them! Be careful and don’t eat to many of those figs you might have to strain pulling in those big ones!!!😂😂😂
You’re the man Mr. Dave! Faithful fan here, keep it up Sir…. You’ve convinced me to purchase Mad Katz rods. Hope they give you a discount code for a little kick back👍👍👍👍👍
Great fishing I enjoyed your fishing it was fun. I hope you get 400,000 views. You was just setting back eating not hurrying just having fun . I love fishing too I go when I can I am Helen from Ga I am 83 just trying to get views too. I SUBSCRIBED.
way to go dave ,i was always a fisherman to now i have arthritus and can,t go very much have great memories . you keep it up as long as you can have fun .guy . keep streching the line.
I love this catfish dave !! I fished Clendening Lake in s. ohio when i was young and "something" pulled my abu garcia spin reel and rod in the water. Boy was i hot for a youngster. Dad wasn't happy either. Anyway i learned so much ...like using half a fish as bait to catch the monsters like you. Thanks for the video. Keep in cattin !👍✌
You are definitely the king of the 77 ft hole you are so fun to watch. You catch them there Big Brother I'll always be watching your show now and those other wannabe deep hole fishers ain't got nothing on you you are the king plus you have more Bend in your pole than he did. He uses a smaller net cause it makes his small fish look bigger. It's all an illusion. You'll get 500,000 likes. Bologna and dry bun is all a real fisherman needs.
Woooooo, I gotta say Dave. When it comes to catching catfish you are an icon! You don't just catch fish like you do every single time you go out. That's not luck that's skill. Keep it up brother, abs keep the videos a coming
Bryan Ponder . == where is the skill ? dropped the bait and waited till the cat hooked it self . with the tow rope on the reel he landed it . not a sportsman , a greedy man with a big ego .
@@gph9252 The skill is thinking like a fish, finding the hole, and getting out in crappy weather and waiting to catch it. It takes patience and toughness that most folks these days dont have. Wanting views could either be ego, or it could be just needing money so he can fish instead of working a slave job.
@@gph9252 There's a little bit more to fishing these big cats than dropping a bait and waiting for a 50 lb to 80lb cat to bite---- You've got to have the right music to serenade those big ones up to the boat!!!! Lol!!! This is the same banjo/fiddle tune I play when I'm stacking firewood!!!!!! Dave DID FORGET to kiss each cat before he torpedoed it back in however!!!!!!!

I hope you get all the views. It takes a lot of time and effort to catch those type of fish. Don't let anyone discourage you. Keep on fishing. Wrangler.
LOLOL! Now the anchor tied on is the funniest thing I've seen you do yet. You know your the catfish king. Most of us pray we catch 1/10th of what you catch. You don't need views you need a bilge pump. ;)~
I see you’re doing the every 3rd day upload now like i do. Makes it easier to keep a consistent schedule. I haven’t run out of videos since doing the every 3rd day upload. Works for me :)
Well Dave yet another epic catch. You are the quality amongst the rest of the videos I have heard there are other videos out there, truth is I never watch them. Loyalty is the name of the game.
Loving that fish on 🎶. Keep doing what you do. Can't waste time on the haters, cause all they do is hate. Stay positive and the 400,000 will come. The action of your new rods look awesome.
When I'm on fort loudon , I use heavy tackle too . There are river -lake monsters in that lake . Remember the picture at twin lakes tackle of the shovel bill cat in a hoop net ?
