I had never heard of jug fishing until today. I read a news article about a 15 year old girl who caught a 100 pound blue cat in a creek near the Ohio River here in Ohio. My dad fished Lake Erie and a few lakes in Ontario, Canada for Pike, Blue Gill, Rock Bass, etc. He wouldn't have thought a catfish was worth the trouble. lol 😂
I saw the same story. Blue cats are actually really good to eat. A whiter meat. A lot of states it’s illegal to jug fish. I see a lot more older people that aren’t really big fisherman jug fishing. It’s another way to experience fishing and the great outdoors.
Man, there is nothing like the excitement of kids pulling up a big fish.
There isn’t anything like it!
Hear those kids??! That’s what it’s all about!
Absolutely!
Enjoyed the video ! Thanks for taking us along !
Thanks Max!
I love that. Your family is awesome. Love the excitement of your kiddos
@Mathew Hardin thanks!
Great job on Lake!
Your kids are the best, it so enjoyable listen to and seeing their enthusiasm!
Great "How To" video too!
Thanks Charles!
Hey I'm glad I found your channel I'm an okie also. And yes Ft. Cobb is known for the big blues and flatheads. That was cool watching the kids
Thanks! We have some good lakes out here, wish we had a big river system, but hey cant have it all I guess.
Always top notch video
Thanks!
I love jug fishing.
pulling in those lines, the anticipation that next morning what you have and looking for a lost jug is also a lot of fun.
@@BooneBoys Yes sir, it is.
That's the best way to go
Nice fish!
Thanks!
I've never seen anyone weight a jug down. Here on the Mississippi and TN rivers , we let them float with the current .
With a strong current I bet you chase those big fish a long ways! You’d have to use and anchor to keep jugs in place on a River I bet, but free lining would be a blast!
@@BooneBoys We let em go and float em across bars and flats. Sometimes we let em loose in the main channel , depending on where the fish are. In mid to late summer if it's really hot and the river is low , they'll be laying in the main channel in current where there is a lot of oxygen. River chutes are good places too when the rivers are high. Every year there is a jug tournament on the Mississippi River at Caruthersville , MO.
@@terrymcguire8476 that’s awesome. My wife’s family is from St Louis. I’ve never fished the Mississippi or Tennessee Rivers. Those cats are on another level from what we catch in lakes. That tournament sounds awesome. Do many people run deep v fiberglasses on those rivers? Or is it mostly all aluminum flat?
@@BooneBoys Mostly aluminum John boats 18 foot to 30 feet long and wide bottoms with some semi Vs and some square nosed. Sometimes there will be a fiberglass boat here and there. Fiberglass isn't recommended on the Mississippi at certain times , like right now after we got a 5 inch flash flood across the Tn Valley, Ohio , and further north. All that debris is coming down it now and would tear the bottom out of a fiberglass boat. When the river is in lower stages and crested or on a slow fall where the trash has cleared out , fiberglass is fine.
@@BooneBoys Follow Chris Souders here on TH-cam. He's a Catfish Tournament guy and has several videos on the Mississippi near Memphis .
Boone boys, ive never jug fished but now i want to make me a few jugs but im curious as to why arent the jugs tied like a trot line. I mean dont the fish swim away with them? Thats the part thats stil confusing me.
In the winter, a 20lb blue may move the jug 10 ft if any at all. That’s with a 1lb weight. Now the summer time you need a heavy weight because you might find the jug 1/2 mile away.
Is there a video showing how you made the jugs?
No we haven’t made a video of that. We probably should though. We’ve tried them many different ways and learned a lot.
@@BooneBoysI'm going to try to copy that method and go catfishing for the first time a little later this year.
@@BooneBoyswould love to see a video on making these too
@@Toddicus2914 great way to fill the freezer, you’ll have a blast.
It looks like the weight is too short to hit the bottom and “anchor” it. So does the weight keep it from drifting halfway across the lake? Sorry if it’s a dumb question I got my first boat a few months ago and my dad loves catfishing, so I’ve been wanting to get out and set some jugs with him
Do you mean the weights are too small by saying too short to anchor it? If so, you don’t need a big weight. I mentioned in the video if the weight is too big it might pull your jug under where you can’t find it if it gets in deep water. I’d say nothing bigger than 1.5lbs should be good. That solo cup shaped concrete I used in video is a really good weight.
this is not fishing. In fact, this looks very bad for the environment. Losing plastic jugs is not good. I am shocked this method is even legal
