- On this fishing trip, I hit a backwater creek on the Tennessee River to do some kayak catfishing. The wind was blowing hard and had the bait and birds stacked up. Unfortunately, I got blown off the area but not before hooking some blue catfish and a striped bass.

Thanks for letting us go with you Justin. It was a little windy but the audio was fine. I is always exciting to see a bunch of birds working. Another great day on the water.
Glad you finally remembered to throw your glove on board.
Wind on your vid don't really bother me. I just like the fish action. Please keep us posted on your tourney progress, Justin?
Happy Friday everyone & Happy Fishing!! 🙂🎣
your hard work payed off for you one for the tournament bless you and yours justin
Man you are on the fish. I appreciate the way you always explain how you are fishing and the depth your fishing. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
Glad you enjoy the videos. Thanks for watching!
well done...follow the feeding birds....
Great vid Justin. Always like the surprise catch, just to bad we couldn't see just how big that striper was. Oh well.
Forward ho on the Kayak Catfishing.
Also, good luck on the slot tourney.
Just remember this, sometimes you have to sacrifice quality, to get quantity.
Hats off to you being honest! Imagine how many guys will catch a 33" or close (like you did in other video) and just push him hard into the end of the board to try to shorten him up cause im sure it could be done. Again...Great job and thanks for the videos!!!
I have learned so much from your videos. I no longer use night crawlers for catfish bait. Cut bait all the way.
I miss those days on the lake since I moved to the NC coast. I'm shocked you didn't destroy the stripers too. Great video!!!
Ha, I should have watched the video longer before my comment. 😁
Always look forward to the next video
Congratulations on that slot blue...
Great fishing action enjoyed Justin good luck on your tournament. Be safe
You are the Catfish Dude. I totally enjoy your videos as I know so many others do also. Thanks for that. I enjoy fishing for catfish but living in the Desert Southwest it can be a challenge as we have to drive so dang far. Keep them coming, please. 😊😊
Them birds workin hard in the background of your opening nice 🤙🏻
You lucky dog ! Great video !
Nice trip
#1 Catfish Channel on youtube. Keep Rockin Justin!

I love it when the bite turns on for you! I can hear the happy in your voice and the videos keep coming. Thanks Justin and happy belated birthday. From the couch in Ohio
Fixing to head out the door fishing and see you dropped a video.. Guess the fish can wait.
Good luck today!
Unfortunately no fish and I snapped my favorite rod.. Good news is I'm getting me a new one now l
U caught some nice today would of liked to have seen that strip bass thanks for putting out the video 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Finally getting some nice payback for the tough winter fishing you endured. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
Nice thanks for sharing have a blessed day in the name of Jesus
I had a similar day on Taylorville lake last year minus the wind. Droves of shad and birds in a feeder creek. Couldn't buy a bite all day.
Hey Justin I live in the same county as Red River Gorge tons of great fishing and kayak country. I'm great friends with the sheriff and
I just started chasing big cats last summer. Its starting to pay off. A few nights ago I caught a 28 lb and a 23 lb flathead within 30 minutes of eachother. My 2 best ever. Was a great night.
Congrats on your catches!
Nice size blue catfish
Awesome day great video
Man I love these Vids. Found you a little bit ago. Love catfishing myself Am 85 had to sell my trihull. Family afraid I may fall over. Have caught nice here. Fla. Bait slinger. 🐻
The bite seams be get better and better .good luck hope get one those 100 plus this year. 2 pound channel cats wooooooo be the bate to try.
Man I wish I could cut my bait and go straight to catching a beautiful blue....normally I gotta save some bait for dinner....for me 😆
Slaying them cats
Great video Justin 👍
The day was amazing yesterday. I caught only channel cats but caught my pb! Which is about 22 inches long and 6 pounds. Let’s hope you can catch a new pb this year, except it’s gonna be huge since you fishing for blues and flatheads
cant believe you're not verified yet on TH-cam you deserve it
Kayak Catfish on the march to a hundred k!! Congrats in advance and happy belated birthday!!
Youre creeks are the size of my rivers 😂
Good Fish Justin 31 3/4 is a start! Stay safe catch ya next video!
Justin..you are the man...I caught the same crappie and hour apart off the bank in the small river I fish...I think he wanted to be kept..but I threw him back twice..considering I am the sunfish assassin..great luck for the crappie 😆
I always enjoy watching your videos. There is something about you catching fish (even when I cannot) that is exciting for me. Keep up the awesome content. I would love to see you back in Florida catching giants.
Thanks! I wish I was back in Florida right about now too.
@@KayakCatfish CPR is the only way to go. I mean shit there are signs everywhere saying to not eat the fish and I still see jug lingers everywhere. Some peoples kids.
Another great video
You remember what your water temps were? I used to fish them early when I was younger but now I don't even bother until it's over 55ish or so in my normal spot. I've thrown everything imaginable at them over the years but by me they just won't take it until it warms up a little. We've still got ice chunks floating down the river here so I'm watching this to get my fix lol.
Low 50’s on this trip
Congrats on the perfect catfish Justin . Next month you’ll catch lots of them that size this month 32 1/4” . At least that’s they it seems to happen. Good luck in the tournament.
That's like every canoe/fishing trip I ever took. Getting tossed all over the lake and ending up exhausted.
Awesome job , I was seeing birds flying around in the 2cd creek you went to as well. I am enjoying the videos wind noise or not doesn't matter.
I always look for the birds when I'm on damm where I fish.
Good video would of liked to see the stripper but that's fishing keep those video's coming hope to see ya place well in this tournament good luck justin
All the game wardens for a three day trip it's only $25 dollars not to far of a drive. If you and your lady want to come over and hang at the gorge I can speak to a few people that will hook you up plus that zip line is crazy my friend lol.
Thanks for the offer. Maybe someday I’ll make it over there
your creeks are wayyy bigger than our rivers up here in NW Indiana. lol our creeks arent even 4' deep or 30' wide. I fish the rivers that flow in/out of southern lake michigan and your creeks are just as big as those but much deeper, I havent seen a river over 20' deep ever. lol :) tightlines
Great video Justin nice to see that your catching some nice fish I haven't really been able to go fishing lately because I'm in a boot because of an injury but I'm going fishing tonight wish me some luck but great video as always
Hope you have a speedy recovery
I like fishing the banks the wind is pushing waves into
We got our bait back flooop bait falls in the water lol. Wow man what a fishing trip. Great video brother.
lol, i was fooled, i kept thinking, ok the big fish must be next, or another move,, but just the wind blown
Awsome buddy
Big fan of your channel. If you're ever west of fort Worth hit me up we'll go fishing the Brazos or PK
Outthunk yourself on that anchor and cast. Fisherman are an odd lot for sure. Catching good fish and decide to change the whole deal. Been er dunn that. I will say that I catch strippers suspended using large frozen shrimp for bait. Strippers rarely hit cut bluegill as often as large shrimp.
Thanks again for another video Justin. If you're interested I can hook you up with a free trip to Louisiana where my uncle's are guide's and you can most definitely get a shark and lots of other fish. The hardest pulling fish I caught down there was a bull red fish 57" long. Trevor here enjoying your content.
I’ll keep you in mind if I am ever out there
Sounds good now live in kentucky. But if you ever decide to go (and it's totally up to you Justin). It's a good time not far from venice the red fish capitol. But in all seriousness it's your choice. I'm definitely not trying to bother or pressure ya buddy
Hey man, big fan here. Did you happen to be in Indy this week?
No, I haven’t ever been there
Where do you fish around Indy I’m from brownsburg
@@KayakCatfish thanks for the reply, brother! And ahhhh, okay! Its just that there was a Chevy Tahoe outside my workplace with a Kentucky license plate that said "KAYKCTFSH". Never caught where you were from in one of your videos, so I was thinking it may have been you! Tight lines, man
@@Nick-nt9xp tons of local ponds, and the White River
Their seem to be a lot of Fans from Indiana. Hoosiers showing up! I love seeing it!
What ramp do you use when putting in? I live in the Tri-cities and I’m wanting to come do some fishing down there and was wondering where a good place was? Love the videos keep it up.
TWRA has a list of boat ramps and their addresses online. I use most of them.
I know it aint your thing but would love to see you do a catch clean a cook.
Can we get a video of the launch process??
I just back my trailer in and launch the kayak like a boat. Saves time and my back.
Hey Justin hope you been doing good!! im trying to figure out when i check the TVA app for the gen's that are open and the amount of output from the lake what is to much for a yack?? I was out in a spot about 2hrs from dam and it was pushing 114,000 and i was moving at like 2.8 it was just to fast to do anything been thinking about making a trip to watts bar or Fort, what is your ideal output? Thank you for all your help
Ideal output varies greatly depending on how far away you are fishing from the dam. If you stick to the middle to lower ends of Fort Loudoun and Watts Bar, the current will be manageable regardless of output.
Man love the vids just got back from a trip and I caught some monsters if you would like to know the sizes reply and ask
Congrats on your catches!
Curious I watched another video of yours, do you consider skipjack the better of most. What about shad.
Skipjack is the best bait here where I live. Every body of water is different though
Nice! What kind of reels are those your using to cat with???
All my gear is listed in the video description
Dude what about 31 and 7/8ths or 31 and 15/16ths? Great vid 😁
We round down to the nearest quarter inch
Are the skipjack fresh bait or frozen. I don't have access anywhere close to buy them, just wondering if frozen jack are just as good as fresh
Fresh is always best but I have caught a lot of big fish on frozen skipjack through the years
Just curious, what do you get from your thumb on the line as you reel in a fish
Heya John! He's using baitcasters without levelwind. His thumb guides the line back on. Difficult to get the hang of, but works better (easier) with mono than braid.
👍👍
And Justin what kind of bait casting reels do you use and how do you cast them so easily without birds nest.
All my gear is listed in the video description
Good video! Glad you caught some nice fish! Keep fishing Bro! From north Alabama ghenley35
Yup dude, where did ya say you got your measuring board at?
Muskie bumper makes them
@@KayakCatfish thanks man , do they have web page?
Have u tried the old town predator mk and if so which do you like better the autopilot or mk.
I haven’t tried the mk. I’m sure I would prefer the autopilot though just because of the gps functions.
According to Dave, Ft. Loudon is pretty well fished out. I see you've kinda given up on it for the time being, also. Want to speculate on it why it's been so sorry lately?
I have just been hitting some different areas for variety. I caught a lot of good fish in Fort Loudoun last year and a friend of mine caught two 60lbers there this week. I don’t think it is in as bad a shape as some people let on.
@@KayakCatfish Thanks for the reply.
Way to stick it out man.
How often do you change your line out?
Every 3-4 months
have you ever harvested a catfish and if you do are young to make a video.??
I don’t eat them. Our water is contaminated
Do you ever keep any cats for dinner?
No, we can’t eat them where we are from. We have mercury advisory
@@jordonpratt2604 Awe ok, that's a bummer. Thanks for the reply.
Do you get paid off clicks to your affiliate or only actually buying from them? I like the set up but if I could id like to support a smaller business.
I get paid a commission for any purchase made after clicking a link even if the item linked isn’t purchased.
@@KayakCatfish I guess I'll support your small business then 😎 great videos. Pumped for the heat to come back.
Thanks for the support!
@@KayakCatfish You should try and get sponsored. Your numbers crush even Bass Masters.
I still cant figure out how the hell anyone dislikes your videos
Same reaaon they do every other channel. Jealousy and lack of knowledge. Someone doing consistently what they only wish they could. Problem is they could but too busy or lazy to put in the time.
If you weren’t recording then you probably would have caught all 5 you needed
