Justin, You are most graciously welcome. Your videos inspire a whole new generation of conservationists. Water quality will begin to improve as you and others bring awareness to a greater problem in our country. I always enjoyed having a good fish fry growing up on the Ohio river in Kentucky. I currently live on the Susquehanna River in New York and you can’t eat the fish due to contamination. You Sir are a champion for clean water, healthy fish, and a sustainable environment by promoting awareness. Go Team Kayak Catfish!!!!
Great Day In The Dang Mornin' Justin, You Caught A Bull In A China Shop, The Way He Came On In And Wrecked Your Lines!😱🎣😂 CONGRATULATIONS!!🎉🎈🎊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Justin I feel you with Daphne. I have two dogs Gemma and Capt.. and two cats/kitten. It is like taking care of 2yr old's before you can leave the house. Especially if they make a mess! Appreciate your killer videos and great fishing advice and tips! WNAT A MONSTER!!
Great trip. Thanks for taking us along. Some nice blues a sumo blue and a winter time flatty pluss a Daphne race it doesn't get any better then this. Great video thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos
I been looking at your channel for years now and never commented but always gave a thumbs up but always loved looking at you fish and it actually got me into cat fishing,, except I use a bass rader 10 e to fish out of and just now getting into trying to read lakes maps because of watching you so thanks for your channel and teaching me how to fish like this
We love seeing those big fish. We grew up fishing the high Rocky Mountains clear up at timber line. We were lucky to get beautiful rainbow or spotted trout amidst the ice. Those fusg were fun, but much smaller. Either way, fishing is always fun.
That looks like a great way to spend a day trying something different. I am going to make a separate pan of cornbread about 1/2 inch thick . When the pizza is done I will cut a piece and put the pizza on the cornbread. Great way to spend Saturday morning drinking coffee outside and watching your video. I have my rods ready for tomorrow morning. I don’t know what to expect. The weather is 58 tomorrow morning and that is cold compared to the summer we have had. I am starting in 4-5 feet with fresh shad Have a good weekend great video
Another great video as always man you are always on time with these!! Whenever I can't go or don't you always have a new video to enjoy as if I or we were there! Daphne the doc reminds me of my old late dog Lilly. She seems like a great dog I enjoyed watching her in the video as well thanks an good job again! 👍
That was a hell of a Blue Cat Justin. Great day of fishing. My old man use to tell me when I was a kid, if u ain’t fixing something every day, u ain’t living life right. Looks like u r my friend. Stay safe out there Money….
You definitely had both ends of the spectrum today. Looked like the skippies head was bigger than the little blues head. He was really lucky that big blue wasn't around or he would never got to eat that fly. Glad to see it has warmed up and you had a good day. Now got to finish watching the video and see the baby cheetah spank that butt 😂😂😂😂🚲🚲🚲🏁🏁🏁🏁
That was a GollyFLOPPER!!! Huge!! A big flop in the water when it fell in. 👊 !! Baby Cheetah is so precious. I think she may be limping in the hind legs a tiny bit. Hips? It’s just something Will and I both kinda hone in on because we’ve had a few dogs with hip dysplasia. She is sure fast! Great video!
I got $20 on Daffney. She just dang to fast. On the good note, Justin got himself a February Flatty. Keep them rods bent sir. Can't wait for he next video.
The bass pro fisherman, say the same thing about the fish feeling the FFS sonar ping on them. They say some bass seem to hit most don’t, and say that carp absolutely feel it and even run from it.
Another Great video!! What a TANK!! He came close to wrecking that rod in the holder and NICE Flathead, Still lost to Daphne, She just played with you.
Good advice from a european carp fisher ! If you want the fish to comme up you must pull him down ! the fish will react by swimming up because he is pulled down 😉. This trick works 90% of the times ... now I hope you will read this tip
Its your setup that causes issue we use a 3 way swivel and weight on bottom and bait to side like a flag so u will be setup off the bottom naturally and reduce line twist as well.
It's a valid question - do fish feel it and are they bothered by sonar? If you ask divers that have been pinged by sonar from boats above, they'll tell you it's noticeable. We know that many fish use sound to communicate and hunt so I'm confident they would aware of unnatural sounds in their territory. Whether it bothers them - would love to know.
Holy crap what a beast that was. A true Golly Whopper for sure congrats Justin! Yup it happened again baby cheetah 200 kayak catfish 0 zip nada nothing!
I always wonder if you’ve ever flipped your kayak? I know I took a good spill last summer on elk creek smallmouth fishing and it was quite the experience. Thankfully tho I wasn’t in 50 feet of water that you fish…
Sound travels through water 5 times faster than in air. Sonar pings are not a natural sound in the fish's environment. I guarantee all the fish can hear/feel them. In high pressured lakes, some fish probably know that sonar sound means danger
If you want a Flathead Catfish Challenge, come up to Michigan & I'll get someone to catch you bait. That live scope would be cool fishing in the Saginaw River. You might find cars or who knows what?
I too am from Michigan (mid west) my son and I have a passion for flat heads we do fairly well-I would love to see Justin come fish here-he might even gain a little respect for the Chanel cats we catch them from 10-20 lbs often they give a dang fun pull too ha ha good luck to all and tight lines !!!
@@billhodgson4105 I want to catch a Master Angler Channel Catfish. I was 1/2 inch short last year. My PB Flathead from last year was 33 LBs. I need to beat that this year. I just fish from shore.
@@frankribble4367 you will get him this year 👍-my PB for flatheads is 34 lbs. want that 40 ha ha but any fish of any species that is 10 LB+ is a fun time, I fish from a boat around here it’s hard to find fish able shoreline
@@billhodgson4105 You wouldn't want to net fish in most of the spots I fish. It's the thing I like the least about Flathead fishing. It can be an adventure with me netting a fish especially after dark. We barely fish before dark. I never caught a Flathead during the day. Live bluegill mostly. I got a nice 28 LBer on cut bluegill. My buddies PB is 46. I know a guy that caught 130+ Flatheads last year.
We don’t use a net we grab them by the jaw-except those damn channels them we grab with grippers they like to clamp down on you and then thrash around,we use blue gill mostly also but rock bass work well too and we fish the brush piles and log jams get a lot of snags which sucks but that’s where the fish are
Why do you never try half backed skip jack ? baking with somme spices only the outside of the skip jack ?? So you can still hook it verry well ;-) it it is worth a try ! somme days if you catch nothing you could try to turn the tide with this . Lots of days if the fish dont take the traditional baits they will take sommething they dont know, just to taste it ;-)
Kayak Catfish has crushed it again. Many thanks to you Justin. By far my favorite subscription.
Thank you so much Joey! It is much appreciated.

Thank you Daniel! I really appreciate it.
No problem Justin …. Your videos keep me fighting my PTSD and motivates me to get out of bed and get fishing. I appreciate all you do. Ty again!
That big cat said it answers fist pumps with sumo slap 😊 glad no gear was lost
Nice going JJ putting in that work per usual 🎣
Thanks James!
Heck ya. Congratulations Justin 💪🏼

Blues and flatheads looks so clean and healthy in late winter. Congrats on a good day
Great trip. Thanks for taking us along. Some nice blues a sumo blue and a winter time flatty pluss a Daphne race it doesn't get any better then this. Great video thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos
You hit the right spot today brother
I learned how to read a topographical map in the army I never knew I could apply that to fishing before this channel.
I been looking at your channel for years now and never commented but always gave a thumbs up but always loved looking at you fish and it actually got me into cat fishing,, except I use a bass rader 10 e to fish out of and just now getting into trying to read lakes maps because of watching you so thanks for your channel and teaching me how to fish like this

Thanks Mark! Good luck on your trip!
This was the kinda day you needed when you was doing those tournaments.
Sheesh one heck of an outing. Weather is too nice today, I can’t wait to get some bait in the water!
Good luck! Hope you catch some monsters.
Nice blue Justin, awesome fish, fist bump 🤜🤛 brother .
Another great video as always man you are always on time with these!! Whenever I can't go or don't you always have a new video to enjoy as if I or we were there!

Come down to the potomac in the spring! The shad and catfish bite is like no other!
That was a hell of a Blue Cat Justin. Great day of fishing. My old man use to tell me when I was a kid, if u ain’t fixing something every day, u ain’t living life right. Looks like u r my friend. Stay safe out there Money….
Hey Justin, i have not been fishing lately because it has been so dang cold. But seeing this video makes me want to get fishing again.
Round the world, twirl, tangle all lines, 👊🏾 pump action!!! Keep dropping lines bud!!!
You definitely had both ends of the spectrum today. Looked like the skippies head was bigger than the little blues head. He was really lucky that big blue wasn't around or he would never got to eat that fly. Glad to see it has warmed up and you had a good day.

Thanks Doug!
Another great video Justin! Keep up the good work. I really enjoy your videos.

Thanks Lynn! I haven’t noticed her limping but I’ll keep an eye on it.
Hech yeah. I'll be here till the end as always 😂😂❤

On the good note, Justin got himself a February Flatty.

Great video Justin ! Keep up the awesome work..
Nothing beats a surprise wintertime flatty.
Great video and even better fish. The only thing Justin can we get a speed test also on the bike lol
Daphne doesn't need forgiveness, she needs a reward! She made certain you were in the RIGHT place at exactly THE RIGHT TIME.
ATTAGIRL DAPHNE !!!
this guy always make my day better
You have a pitty!!!!!! I LOVE pitties! She is adorable too!! Awesome fishing also
The bass pro fisherman, say the same thing about the fish feeling the FFS sonar ping on them. They say some bass seem to hit most don’t, and say that carp absolutely feel it and even run from it.
U definitely hit the right spot.a straight stud and numbers with a peekaboo flathead...that woulda been a good day no matter what time of yr
Man, what a cat! Great video brother, and God bless from NC!!✝️👈🏼
you have good technique and good fishingskills but i wouldend be feeling safe in a kayak ! ! nice catch bud
Nice! I told my wife that I’m always worried that someone will come up behind me when I’m talking to a fish. 😄
Another Great video!! What a TANK!! He came close to wrecking that rod in the holder and NICE Flathead, Still lost to Daphne, She just played with you.
Nice fish Justin! And I beleive that Daphne the dog is always gonna be undefeated against those bikes, maybe you could beat her on a dirt bike.
Nice catfish Justin way to go 😊😊😮
Good advice from a european carp fisher ! If you want the fish to comme up you must pull him down ! the fish will react by swimming up because he is pulled down 😉. This trick works 90% of the times ... now I hope you will read this tip
Awesome catch Justin
Good way to start the year
Its your setup that causes issue we use a 3 way swivel and weight on bottom and bait to side like a flag so u will be setup off the bottom naturally and reduce line twist as well.

Nice kittie! ❤️
Nice of that flathead to get caught, but Holy moly what a blue 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks Keith!

The baby cheetah tried to take you out on that run justin great video that one blue was a hog stay safe buddy
I always wonder if you’ve ever flipped your kayak? I know I took a good spill last summer on elk creek smallmouth fishing and it was quite the experience. Thankfully tho I wasn’t in 50 feet of water that you fish…
I flipped once but it was in shallow water thankfully.
Hey brother what is the name of the lake you fish at for the big cats
I fish all of the Tennessee reservoirs of the Tennessee River.
That's awesome that the whole Tennessee River holds big cats like that ...do you have a personal favorite reservoir you like to fish?
Do you use the solar lunar calendar?
No
That would eliminate a lot of fishing days!
Do they sell American eels in Tennessee? If so I will donate to see how the fish react to them
I have never seen them for sale here.
Do you have a skip Jack shirt?
Epic Thumbnail!
Dang....great catch!
Nice Blue

I believe the fish can feel the vibration yes sir
CONGRATS WHAT A TANK.
Was for sure you were about to go in the water 😂

80# leader? What is your main line?
40lb mono
Would that blue make it in your top 10?
Definitely not
It's golly woper time!!!
I just can't believe that you can catch giants out of a kyack 😂
Ummmm you must be new and that’s totally fine. Go check out his Florida keys shark vids 😂
Now that's a hos 😂 he was ready to go
Dude if you can cast a bait 50 to 100 yards your a legend 😂
was wondering why you don't fish at the [pond anymore???????
I went there last month but didn’t do any good
I bet that fish was proud of himself for wrecking your lines and almost tipping your kayak... them things are onry😂
Monster 👊👊
Baby cheetah at this point has qualified for the Kentucky Derby at minimum 🐆 😊🐆🐕

All the beast from the east heard was “right now” and he flopped haha 😂
That’s a damn big one
Dogs do make life better
Do you ever sharpen your hooks? 10:07 9
No
where did you buy your dual rod holders?😅 2:54 2:56 😂
All was something 😢 you be ok.
Hahaha dog wins again 😂❤
the ought to start calling you catfish sumo lol
Is Daphne a pit bull?
Yeah she is a pit/boxer mix
I hollered at ya but you didn't hear me i guess lol.
that fish that fell off at the last minute
The Baby Cheetah brought you good luck, does she eat bananas?
Haha! She actually does like bananas. I have caught her eating the banana peels that I throw out in the yard too
Your trolling motor more than likely has a seal that has failed and needs replaced. Try Minnkota next time.
The last Minn Kota I had tore up twice in a year. It was the worst quality of any of the brands I have used.
You sure got in the bite while it lasted
