- Jay Siemens and Josh Mcfaddin go back to the basics and head out shore fishing on the beaches of Lake Winnipeg in search of Channel Catfish And Freshwater Drum. While these aren't fish aren’t generally associated with table-fare in Manitoba, Josh is here to change that conversation. The trip is wrapped up trying to find a trophy sized Catfish on the mighty Red River of Manitoba.

JAY ON MEATEATER!! Man what a long way he's come, absolutely deserves it and a great episode
BC born and raised, always thought we are spoiled over here with endless lakes and rivers full of trout....but man I gotta say I'm jealous of the variety of species you guys get over there.
Born in Manitoba/Ontario boarder area like Jay. It really is great but it’s great in both places. 👍
@@TheTimmehtimmeh I'm born and raised in MB, and living in AB, just outside Calgary. Trying to teach myself how to fish out here, and wishing I could be back home where the fishing is more like catching.
@@adamlogan384 I was born in mb raised on lotw now I fish all around edmonton. I always wish I was on lotw fishing
@@gbussoutdoors I've never gotten the chance. Look for ward to it when I get to.
B.C. Is 10 ply bud
Love to see Jay passing the rod to Caleb, very cool. As a fellow Canadian definitely planning a trip east to go attempt to catch some of these fish!

Chicken liver and cut up hotdogs rarely fail
I’ve heard of success with chicken liver, but since I’m usually with the kids, I stick away from anything with high chance of salmonella. $6 bag of raw shrimp from Freshco gets us cats every time in the same spot they’re fishing
I live in Selkirk, I know just about every spot you went to in this video, love seeing my stomping grounds on tv, showing the beauty and fun there is to have fishing around here
I catch a ton of Walleye and big pike on Lesser Slave Lake, and others in the area that are similar. Long, shallow, rocky shores... wading and fan casting miles of water with long steelhead rods. There's a ton of bait in shallow, so even in the heat of summer big fish will still show up for a feed. I've tried it in other waters for other species, and as long as there is enough fishable shore I always catch fish. The more I do it, the better it works, and the less my boat gets used.
You don't get a boat to fish the middle (mostly). You get a boat to fish the shore from the right direction.
Great to Watch Jay on this Program... Simple Fishing Does get overlooked all the Time .....
I'm always happy to watch a Bobber after Bluegills or the Tip of the Rod o. A Fork stick and we Are catching Sucker...
Those Tortillas were stuff nice with that Shore lunch coating
Is meater running a giveaway
Catfish are amazing and delicious.
Sincerely,
a Louisiana angler
Nothing better than fishing the red! I have a video fishing it with the family, nothing but good times there.
This is a great series. Keep them coming
Heck yeah!!! I'm planning a trip to drop a line in both sides of the Atlantic this year. That the kind of thing you gotta get this fella doing. He's the new Bob Izumi for sure.
Definitely take the belly meat! Best part of the catfish in my opinion! I call it the butterfly cut because when you do it, it takes on a butterfly wing shape.
Jay Siemen is the best!!
JAY is the man !
Never seeb someone so excited to catch sheephead
Absolutely fantastic episode!
Lake Erie and Lake Huron cats and sheep are absolutely delicious. Glad some other guys up north figured this out
Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, and Louisiana - Love Catfish, Especially Channel Cats.
I've been on lakefront cabins on L. Winnipeg my whole life and always though throwing a line is an effort better saved for trips east to the Whiteshell and Lake of the Woods. I'll be breaking out the waders myself and giving this a go next weekend. Well done, boys.
When is The Angle podcast coming to the Meateater network? We need a fishing podcast, it's one of the pillars!
Bent
Bent is no longer producing new
@@jamesmainelli8277 Yeah I miss Joe's podcast.
Joe is starting a new one called “Cut and Retie”. First episode supposed to be out next week or so
Channel cats are one of my favorite fish
It feels weird to see these places I've fished at all my life on the meat eater channel
Caleb will never forget that
When the lawn-chair heads for the lake, you know you got a bigin on there.
Now that’s a Tshirt
you havent caught a manitoba drum untill you catch a 34 + incher . i have caught 3 in 1 day back to back over 30 inchs and i think my biggest was like 35 inchs back 35 years ago :) miss those days fishin
Jay love to see the rod pass to a kid. We need to get kids more involved in the outdoors and having a kid fight a big Cat will definitely help.
So cool!
I just might have to try the sheepshead. Thanks for the content.
Almost every drum species, salt or fresh water, are very edible. The bigger ones can be coarse and/or have occasional worms. But, small drum are delicious.
Catch and Release (into the grease)! - Looks great. I’d be all over catching those Drum. They’re a great looking fish👍
Dude what a great video jay. Shore fishing Manitoba. Unexpected. Excellent bro
Love a good catfish video
Ontario boy here cat fish are great eating when you can get the right size.
I’m a die hard catfisherman, chasing trophy cats from the states. Nice video yall
Funny to see Canadians look at cat like we look at carp. Fun to catch, but don't eat. Awesome fishing
Nothing better than fried catfish! Sheewww
fished that same landlocked spot a few weeks back, TONS of goldeye in there its insane!
Awesome series
Hot Dammm. That Canadian!!
That clicking noise is from a marble like thing in their head. We never ate them here in ETN but I would try it now
Beautiful catfish.
Love catfish, fry it with a little pepper and cornmeal, delicious.
Great episode!
Its hard to beat a fresh catfish nugget. Good eating
Awesome stuff! Jay, the first vid I saw of yours, I was looking into where/what to fish in Winnipeg. You did the exact same thing, caught goldeye for bait and caught some beauty 15lb cats. You gained a subscriber and a huge fan from the first vid I saw! Wicked! Hope the wife and boy are well 🍻 tight lines 😎🤙
I took my ear buds out 2wice to check the auto light on my stove here. Then you said something about clicking and I thought I was def
Big ear-bud flex over here
I wanna go for Drum looks fun
Nice cat!
Way to get it done on my home water buddy.
We have big drums in the great lakes.
Catfish is so pretty.
What kind of large folding net was that? The one your friend had in the beginning of the video. Thanks for sharing! Drum and Cats can make a great meal if you know what you are doing them.
OMG that made me hungry
Great vid
Wow I’m from the southern United States and we don’t fish for channels because they don’t get big here at all, not like blues or flatheads! That’s crazy
That's some big fish.
You guys should try a baitfeeder reel so your rods dont get pulled into the water by big fish.
Try northern Manitoba master angler pike and waleye
Check out Jay's own channel. He's got plenty of em on there.
I did not know there were Drum fish in Canada. It looks like something you find in the ocean.
We even have burbot which is a freshwater cod.
For the algorithm
Those were some quality cats. Too big to eat but just right for a good fight
Had a family fish fry with a 41 pound catfish yesterday. Folks said it was the best they had ever eaten. Can’t over stress how important removing the fat and the blood line is. Large cats taste wonderful, but if you leave the fat there is an off putting taste similar to the smell of a live catfish.
Josh seems like a cool cat
too much mercury where I am at.. love it
They ain't flatheads but some nice channels non the less
So all hooks has to be barbless there? She call those drums sheepshead here in Wisconsin..sturgeon bay has big a$$ drums up to 15lbs and those goldeye shads are actually good eating
More people need to try catfish in Canada it tastes delicious 😋 Ps. Instead of minnows try chicken liver for catfish 👍
To catch gold eye I use a floating hook and leeches
Channel Cats, from 3 to 7or evan 10lbs. Are absolutely great table fare. 😋😋😋
Is jug fishing aloud in Canada?? Funnest way to catch cats.
Was in hecla and caught a 32 inch cat
Caught three master angler cats in 2 hours in that area.
💯💪🏾
The first part of that intro song kind of sounds like the happy wheels song.
Was about to say, if you didn't touch it you didn't catch it lol. Also you cut off the bear fat? thought it was supposed to taste really good? Great watch, thanks.
Yes, trim all bear fat off. It will go rancid in your freezer. Bear fat is great once your render it.
Our Canadian bears would fill a 5 gal bucket and than some with fat. Often three inches on the back..
@@bluesteel8376 ahhhh, understood! Thanks for the reply.
I just ground up some frozen butcher wrap packs from the 2021 springs harvest that had plenty of fat in it and fried it all up as ground for lunch meat, it was just fine.
Go to Lake diefenbaker there's millions of goldeye
What was on the bottom of the fin of that first cat?? 4:52
Sometimes they get little leeches stuck to them.
@@joshmcfads5916 ahh, ty for answering!
Enjoyed watching your videos.
Going to Selkirk in October. Would The catfish still be biting then? Please let me know. Thanks👍🏿
Fall is prime time on the red.
@@austinolek2510 thanks
Jay has taught us a few things;
-Canadians can point a knife at a fish without butchering it
-Never tried it, but let’s deep fry it
-Put it in the most boring taco ever
-I use water before I batter, you don’t need egg wash or anything like that, then I use too much Franks Red Hot
Fin’
Nothing or no one ever
Hey can anybody let me know why Steve doesn’t run this show anymore?
I think he’s more of an executive producer now.
Canadian Angle is Jay’s show. Steve’s show is MeatEater on Netflix. All these you tube shows highlight different personalities and are produced under the Meateater umbrella, but do not feature Steve
@@jakeharlick5862 thanks for that. We don’t have meateater on UK Netflix sadly
Nice cat
Are goldeye any good to eat?
They’re amazing to eat. Best is brined and smoked but whole fried and fresh is great as well, though more rare
@@joshmcfads5916 thanks, I was wondering because it looked like you could get some nice fillets of the fish they where using as bait .
why do big time anglers insist on wearing waders?? Like in the summer in this instance it seems completely useless
Great fish great weather good company what a fukkin life eh bud
I catch cats on roostertails all the time
He cuts the fat off the fish but doesn't explain why. Does doing so make it taste better? Usually, a fish with a lot of fat tastes better.
Some think it’s more strong in flavor so for those folks we just recommend to trim it! Easy.
The fat on catfish hold the muddy taste and also more heavy metals
@@Eric-dr5bj Thx for the info.
@@joshmcfads5916 Thx for the info.
The south basin has a bit less public access because of all the cottages, but still there are a lot of public areas to fish. Lots of people fish off the piers.
I second that love catfish but don't to often catch a keeper .
I need that Drum Lyfe shirt, where can I get it???
Numba one
Threats is a guy saying folks have been chosen as winners posing as meateater I assume this isn't real.. is might want to ban them
mistyped threats
Where can i get that T shirt?!?
Catfish are predators and while I use bait for targeting catfish I have caught them unintentionally with panther martin spinners and even fly fishing with a wooley bugger while bass fishing. Btw to each his own but my personal experience eating freshwater drum, the texture is so off putting will never eat that fish again. As for cats, both blues and channels are delicious but I get a bigger thrill from a blue suddenly bending the rod with no twitching just a violent straightforward pull
Kitty kat tacos
Potosi, Wisconsin is the catfish capital of the world, not Winnipeg.
Selkirk and Lockport are. Every cat is a trophy cat.
What passes for a beach in Canada is laughable
those are not catfish they are kittens try the wells catfish records haha
Barbless…welcome to woke Canada 🇨🇦.
You don't notice a difference. Just makes getting the hook out easy.
Over Produced.
Catfish… the most overrated fish to eat.
It’s not bad… its just overrated. A very bland meat, or if not cleaned properly it takes on a muddy flavor and turns mushy
Wheres the meat eater part? All you did was “catch” fish then let them go 🥱
why not loosen your drag instead of almost letting fish pull your rod in the water?? amateur hour vibes
