  • Come along as my buddy Ken and I fish the Kat Kings Tournament out of Wheeling, WV on the Ohio River. The only thing certain on tournament day is uncertainty! Fortunately the day went well for us. Watch as we get on a pile of fish, hook into a few doubles and I put my new PB on the deck!

    I live in Wellsburg, I'm 34. I worked in the tin mill in Weirton, until they decided to shut the entire operation down 8 months ago. I would love to come out with you guys to catch my first flathead . Ive been trying all summer ever single day to the point my wife is pissed. I'd love to spend an afternoon or a few hours night fishing with you guys. Im easy to please and a chill guy like you both. Let me know if you would consider. Thanks for the video!

    Nice video Guys! The first thing I would do is get that top out of the boat and trash it! I hate those things!

      Thanks for watching! It definitely gets in the way, but worth it's weight in gold when it's raining or very sunny.

      I try to spread out and stagger the baits (long/short). The hard part is remembering where they're all at while you're doing the rod rodeo fighting a fish. Thanks for watching!

      I run Big Cat Fever medium-heavy action rods. Penn Fathom 20 lw reels, 40-50lb mono main line (Slimeline), 80lb leader line (Slimeline Heavy cover leader line), and Maruto 8/0 circle hooks. Links for the line, rods and hooks are in the description of my other videos. Let me know if you have anymore questions and thanks for watching!

    Hey how's it going, so glad I ran across you guys I am from wheeling and recently got a boat. I have been out a few times and caught some small flats. Any chance you guys could give me some pointers on good areas on the ohio to target the bigger fish? I know it's hard to give up your spots lol can message you directly on Facebook if you don't want to show. Also what are some good areas to cast net shad. I haven't seen any lately. Thanks!!

    Just subscribed. Been fishing over 40 years and finally got a decent boat this year. We live about 45 minutes away from Gallipolis. We went down there once just to run the boat and look at things. I had to upgrade my fish finder and got some contour maps of a couple different river pools so we looked over the maps and did our first trip last Saturday. I think we did pretty good for the first trip we caught 4 flatheads and 1 blue. 2 fish broke 20 pounds. I'll be spending alot of time down there on weekends hopefully I'll run into you guys or we can link up sometime. Great video and awesome day of fishing. Congrats on the win you guys killed it that day. What's your Facebook page name?

      Thanks for watching and subscribing! I've fished the Ohio and Kanawha near Gallipolis several times, some great fishing down there. I live about 3.5-4 hrs away but hope to do a weekend trip there this fall. A couple over 20 is a great trip, especially for your 1st! Catfishing, like anything else, you get out what you put into it. Time on the water is key. Look up Joe Granata on Facebook.
      Thanks again!

      @@hammer-downcatfishingwithj7223 well it's not my first catfishing by any means. Just the first time in my boat. We've got a small boat we use for sciioto river and kayaks . I've fished it for many years and caught some real good fish. PB is 43 pound flathead. The sciito is too dangerous and changes too much for a big boat on the areas I fish but it does spill into the Ohio river in Portsmouth. If you get down this way let me know and we will link up.
