- Finding early spring channel catfish at a big lake, fishing from the bank. Spring catfish patterns can be a bit of a guessing game, as the temperatures play a big role in where the fish will be. It's good to have a plan when you go fishing, but it's also good to change strategy if it isn't working. That was the key that allowed me to find the catfish on this day. Thanks for watching.

“Is that a bass?” 😂 got me rollin
I appreciate the way that you weigh your catch in the net 😊
Thanks, Mark.
Good to see someone is finding some early channel cats!
They've been pretty hard to find this spring, thanks for watching!
Your channels doing great tom and your channel keep up the great work !! 🤝
Thanks Joe!
Couple nice cats there. Greetings from Grundy County.
Thanks for watching!
Heck yeah!! Went from skunk speach to tearing it up!! Good job Tom
Pretty great when it works out like that. Thanks Joseph!
Common issue with GM trucks is the oil pressure sensor. Located in the back of the engine. Had that issue on my truck and on my moms Tahoe both had a failing sending unit
Yep, new sending unit fixed the issue. Hardest part of that fix was reaching the sensor.
Got the same reels.. I really like em they been good for me...new sub to your channel... good stuff
Thanks, and welcome aboard!
Good video production, you got fish fighting music and everything. Fish aren’t biting here yet, muddy water fish must turn on later I guess.
That could be, thanks for watching!
Those are decent reels. I have several.
Good to know, they're working good for me so far!
i fish for channel cats everyday..the thread fin shad works good here..check your oil filter even a new one can be defective.your symptoms familiar on the oil pressure.i change the oil replaced the filter i didnt notice but there were not holes in the filter..blew my ingine over an oil change
Thanks, I changed the filter first to rule that out, but it ended up being the sending unit, all good now. Was real pain to replace though, way on the back of the engine. Thanks for watching!
@@OutsidewithTom sounds good glad ya fixed it
Those were some pretty nice channels, 10lbers aren't very common in Iowa that's for sure.
Yep, a 10 pounder is a trophy fish in my book!
shivers down my spine (non working oil pressure gauge on my benz many years ago...still hurts :-)
Can definitely be alarming when oil pressure is involved. Fortunately, it was just a bad sensor, all good now. Thanks for watching!
@@OutsidewithTom Nice channel; like your style. regards from Switzerland and always tight lines :-)
Nice catch Tom!
Thank you very much!
Way to stick with it buddy.. For me this time of year if I'm not getting bit quick it's time to recast or move also
Yep, gotta go where the fish are this time of year!
@@OutsidewithTom okay so here's the real question.. it's going to be like 28 here in the morning... I know I can catch cats. But would really like to go for carp. . It had been warm here till last day or so.. So do you think it's worth a try or should I just wait and fish for cats
@@RalphBarton-fishing Tough call. Personally, I've been focusing on cats while the water's still cold, I seem to have better luck with cats than carp in cold water, but that's just me. Could always put out baits for both cats and carp and see what happens.
Gonna be another good one🤙🎣
Thanks Jake! 🎣😁
Found em! Nice cats Tom. Guess the fishing is gonna be good this season if you found them this early?
I hope so!
What lake are you fishing am in the midwest am I close. I'd love to go fishing
Sorry Charles, I don't name locations on TH-cam. Thanks for watching.
Nice cats! Fat & sassy!
Some healthy catfish for sure!
