Justin, just wanted to say thanks. I appreciate your effort and great storytelling.
Wow! Thank you so much Joey! You are awesome.
Gotta love and respect the raw uncut unedited video while being able to keep everyone’s attention the whole time. Now that’s 100% Fishing and More.
OK Justin. I didn't lift a finger to help in the kayak, but I did lift a finger to "like" the video, if that counts.😂
I sure appreciate it.
You are doing your viewers a service my modeling wisdom in seeking shelter when at risk. You have nothing to apologize for!!! Keep your viewers wisely safe.
I stumbled across your channel the other day. I like it. I’m a saltwater fisherman bank fishing and offshore Southern California. Don’t hate me because I’m from So. Cal haha. It’s just a stereotype. Let’s face it, we can only be excited about so many skipjack and catfish being pulled into the boat. In my opinion the real success of your videos is the commentary. In a nutshell you said one time “in our life we are told something that becomes engrained into our lives….the herd mentality…nobody questions the legitimacy….etc etc. “ That is the good stuff right there! It’s the commentary that will keep the viewer entertained and interested in more. Keep it up man!
Thanks buddy!
Beautiful just beautiful love watching. So tranquil and peaceful. Tight lines 🐈⬛🐟
Thank you for what you do Justin
if you keep blaming me for your mess ups, i'm tellingmom!
No,I’m impressed with how careful you are with the kitties, salute!
Appreciate your great content. Appreciate the Goo Goo Dolls shoutout even more. They’ve provided the soundtrack to some of my best memories in life since I was about 10 years old. My best friend and his family used to take me surfing in their old VW Camper every opportunity they got and since the early noughties they’ve been my go-to band for almost every trip down south! Great shout that was dude!
That’s awesome! The Goo Goo Dolls probably have more songs on my roadtrip playlist than any other band.
You dad gum right lol I’ve been sound asleep a couple times then woke up to the video still going
It also occurs to me that by being a role model for safe boating practices, you are protecting children from the loss of a parent or other relative. Nothing would sour a child more on fishing than to associate a seriously painful loss with it. You are looked to by many for all the ways you show how to fish, including safety issues. Even amid a tournament you were wise enough to come to shore as a storm approached. Sure, that episode included awkward moments but your good-natured humor helped make the point that safety counts.
Thanks Art!
I’ll tell you this sir you really are a natural teacher and just naturally witty. I’ve been watching now for only a couple weeks but I’ll be a follower from now on have already learned a lot. I own a large deep clear water quarry that holds giant blues as well as all of the other species i feel I can now crack the code now on these big blues.
wide awake and enjoying this video
I'm glad the bite is back on, had fun watching.
nice double rainbow while reeling in the tangled fish! awesome video! absolutely enjoy watching your videos! keep up the hard work and good luck to you bud! also, it was the first fish of the video that knocked your motor cable out in the water. lol
Thanks buddy!
You are on it today 😂 I love it 😊😊😊
Whatnabout a night trip fishin buddy? Been sort of hot out here for this old man. Hell, I might even reel one in for ya.
My filming light is out of commission at the moment and I never could get many people to watch night videos anyways so I probably won’t be doing any night trips this year.
@@KayakCatfish I will watch a night trip. Next year 🎉
We need, nay, We have to have more uncut fishing videos! Thank you, sir! Great content!
LOL a true fisherman’s spirit, impressive….
If you like Hunger. We saw them 2 weeks ago in Beaumont, TX. Pretty cool to see them
Hellk Justin good to see you again how are things going I'm doing much better myself thank God
That’s great Andy! Glad to hear you are doing better.
great video. lots of nice size fish. always safe is better than sorry. stay safe.
As disrupting as getting off the water was, I bet it was a useful tip for beginners when lightning arrived.
Catfish CONSPIRACY! Hehheh
These next few videos will be getting me down the road to the PNW. I'm always listening/watching while driving. I'd help you out, but grabbing a rod at 70mph might take all the fun out of it. 😂😂
Enjoy the PNW. Beautiful country up there. I hope to make it back up there someday
That was a pretty cool melanistic catfish! Nice catch.
Kayak fishing and east tenn whiskers are the best I've come across, I don't own a kayak/boat but like the idea of dragging some lines behind. You got some nice fish!
Great video new the bite had to pick up soon also just noticed you had the new cooler lol stay safe out there justin
It happens to even the best of us. If the haters don't like it, well, they can go on.
Yes Justin this is going to be great
Great job Justin catching gollywhopper😊😊
That's a damn ninja cat.
Thanks for a great time
love these vids!!
I spoke too soon, that black catfish 😮
Best way to start my day!!!
Exactly why I have stopped 80% of the bass fishing I do. You catch a big one take your pictures and before you know it that fish has been out of the water for lord knows how long. You have to revive it and there is no telling how long it’ll live after that. I personally do not eat bass, but realizing that it crossed my mind “why possibly kill this fish for a damn picture.” Now I stick to Crappie and Cats
Great video
Awesome video man 🔥🔥🔥🎣🎣🎣🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The cats out of the bag, Justin's into black cats. 😂😂😂
You ain't much but I guess you will have to do 😂. Good morning on the water and good video. Thank you for taking me along with you i ain't been able to get out there much this year but at least I can count on your videos
Talk about an odd fishing year I can definitely relate. My normal go-to fishing spot produces quality blues March through mid-June. Then the spawn starts to set in up here in the mtns. Late August till late October, quality flatheads. This year, all spring early summer quality flatheads totally backward. So we'll see this fall if the blues pick up. Totally caught me off guard. Which any time I get into some flatheads, I'm tickled to death.
That first fish - Rock and Roll, Buddy Holly kind of fish, saw it in her eyes…
Can’t trust the weather man lol I drive a jeep 😂
Damn good bite overrides thunder and lightening, evidently.
Justin it's my experience that the music catfish like is Straycats.
Georgia bulldogs #1
I’ve got a nucanoe unlimited. Love it, but you’re right. Plastic is thin. But it only weighs 85lb v pa14 at 150lb. As always…..you give something to get something.
Man I sure do not want to see you turned into a Justin lantern 😮
Preaching to the choir, brother. I haven't been able to find the bait or the cats to save my life on the TN river way west of you.
Cumberland been hard too haven't seen a skip in 4 or 5 weeks
The boxes I put in the rivers, not the lake, allow the fish to spawn while I'm not checking it. Helps them make more babies. And keeps the natural spawn locations left alown. So, in reality, we help way more than we keep. Also, I have personally seen the same fish multiple times in a week out of the same hole. And several fish from year to year. I also fish with rod and real. But talking crap about a fishing of others is crazy while you kill bait fish every time you come out to fish. Good way to bost your algorithm.
It's too bad you had a bad experience with Nucanoe. I've had their Pursuit for 3 years. Over 1000 hours of hard use. No keel guard, drag it everywhere, dropped it off my car, ran it into boulders, etc... No issues. I imagine their new Unlimited is even better.
Perhaps give them another try. With your level of exposure they might even sponsor you.
Great video as always.
Glad you have had a good experience with them.
I thought for sure you’d be looking at the one Catfish Sumo got. Titan X I think it was. 360 seat at laid out for motor and electronics.
I don’t like the size of location of the battery compartment behind the seat. It’s too small for a 24v battery and gets in the way if you fish off the back of the kayak.
Ah ok that makes sense.
I tried to tell yah but u didn’t hear me through the tv. Lolol. U should come down to badin lake here in nc. Davidson county area. Big cats over here.
Man that's a very nice flat head😮
Actually, we were hoping you would do a livestream so that we could croud source you a 22" screen for your livescope. That way we can see it too. 😊
Haha! I may need a booster seat to see over the top of a 22” screen lol.
How does the balloon rig work????
So cool a flathead
Hey Justin your new cooler looks good, better safe than sorry with the weather, why no consideration to the native titan like Daniel has, being it has the swivel seat?
Thanks! I’m not really interested in the Titan. I don’t like the battery box size and location behind the seat.
When you were pulling in the foul hooked one did you notice the rainbow in front of you? At the 2:03 mark
Never noticed it
Might it be that the drop off in quality of fish was encouraging you to go off the water to be safe?
Hoping to catch my first flathead next weekend in Mosquito lake Cortland Ohio bank fishing every night of my caping trip qith the family.
Integrity should never be penalized!
Man, I hate hooking one deep. It’s rare with a circle, but it happens every once in awhile. I’d like to know what his chances are if you just cut the hook.
Hey do you have a video for how to tie on that fly?
Yes. The search box is your friend
Hey man just want to give you a shout out. Just to tell you that you have helped me learn so so much because i am doing exactly what your doing. I will say catfish sumo bait flies really do work ! I have personally caught different species of fish just seeing the rod tip move a little and they end up with the hook set and landed ! I have also used many different products you have shown on your channel and its made me a better fisherman for sure 100%. Thanks for doing what you do. Even my wife sometimes catches one of your fishing trips with me from time to time because I dont miss one. Keep being you buddy because I enjoy your videos and the way it is uncut and we are really seeing the grind. I would say that I do think something would be cool that a lot of anglers i watch don’t do. Show the fish finder like in the corner of the screen maybe some pointers on how you use it and some ways to make it easier.. Thanks for your time if you cared enough to read all of this. Another awesome fishing video by Kayak Catfish !!!
Also loving the location of your graph in this video !!
I’ve been fishing for Smallmouth bass what’s your thoughts on using there heads for catfish baits ?
They will work well. Cats love them.
Very interested in the rail system that you use for rod holders. Do you have a vid on that?
I did a walkthrough video of my kayak a couple years ago
What model is your kayak? Looks pretty stable 👍🏽
Hobie Pro Angler 14
Why do you put the fly a few inches below the hook? Just wondering, new fisherman here 😂
It catches some extra fish
Yay I'm the second one
YOU are actually the first!🥇🏆👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I’ll say this around Kansas everyone likes to keep the small cats like up to 5 or so lbs I keep saying that’s why there isn’t as many bigger cats anymore because they are not throwing the small ones back to get bigger dogs I keep fish to eat yes I do but I keep bigger ones like 20+ lbs
You must be fishing with my little sister - she has me doing everything …
The mortality rate of catfish I would say is very low, if not near zero. I say this because those who noodle catfish have been tagging them and repeatedly catch the same catfish year after year.
Try using live night crawler sometime 💪
Not trying to be mean, but why are you blaming it on us and I don’t mind that you’re blaming it but I just like how how good of fisherman you are so yeah
Well I'm ah noodler not offended by ur statement but we catch and release and put them back in the nest after ah picture I have cought the same male flathead we tagged it 4 time in one summer and 3 years in ah row
What reels are you using? I like your videos. ❤
Shimano Tekota. All my gear is listed in the video description
Need to find a way to tag them and follow up on catches with a phone number or what not
Just curious why you didn’t use Tennessee orange instead of red for your logo and hats? And don’t forget to change that line out so it doesn’t cost you that triple digits fish that’s coming your way!
The person who designed my logo had used red in the initial design and I thought it looked good so I just kept it. In hindsight, I wish I had done a Tennessee orange though.
@@KayakCatfish man I think Tennessee orange would look awesome, maybe they could do some both colors.
Well, yea, it’s comical for us to see you get frustrated and show that you are human, just like us. Struggles help us to remain humble in our approach.I got humbled out here in Washington state by the halibut in PugetSound.
Hi fellow fisher! What's your opinion for the best length of a cat pole with a baitcaster reel?
7’ is a good length from a kayak
Do you ever use sheephead/drum for catfish bait? I’ve never seen any in your videos. There very easy to get in Ohio where I live, I wondered if they were not good bait as I never see you use them, I was planning on trying them, I only have flatheads and channels here btw
They work well. I just don’t get them very often down here
As a guy that has responded to a couple of folks that were lightning struck, and lost a very good friend to lightning, no fish is worth risking getting hit. Even if you survive, you will have life long consequences to live with.
Tight lines
Haven’t missed a bite yet…
could it be caused by El Nino
Decent recovery on your part…
What’s the point of the fly on the line?
It catches fish
Why dont u get with a kayak company or have katfish sumo get into launching a kayak and design your own kayak? Just a thought...
That would be really cool but I don’t think the kayak catfishing market is big enough at this point in time for a company to consider making a kayak specifically for us.
@KayakCatfish but at some point I think it's gonna end up being a bigger market than u think. Why not get ahead of the competition and tie ur golly whopper rods into it with Daniel and start a new market??
Can't find a good fishing partner for nothing I'm trying to fish and help you out and I get the blame cause you messing up 😂😂😂😂😂😂. I do have fun fishing with you 😂😂
1:22:38 makes it all worth it, fist pump worthy 💪
Time for a GOLLY WHOPPER…
Lightening is unforgiving. It’s too late to run. Thunder can proceed the Lightening by several miles. Beware.
Good decision.
Southern people should be accommodating for someone seeking shelter from a storm…
Always best to be conservative when it comes to LIGHTENING!
Camera still rolling
Stupid rain
Frog togg😊
First fish needs some cameo time…
Reactive? That's funny. Fish and game aren't just proactive, they are creactive. They go to college and become dumber and dumber.
Awesome video
