Thank you Guys so much for this vids. I'm not from as far south as Kentucky, but I'm from Southern Iowa and did a lot of Catfishing with my grandfolks as a kid. I'm not afraid to say that I teared up a bit thinking about it. Again, I sure do appreciate the video.
@creamtt Deeelicious.Skin 'em,slop 'em in some egg & milk,then into flour seasoned with salt and pepper.Add them to some hotter than Hell oil & cook til golden brown.
Good deal. It's Lardo of the Moron Brothers. Seems like a interesting man to spend the afternoon with. Love his music too. From a fan here in Nicholasville.
i remember a few years ago at martin creek lake in texas we set some of them troutlines out and caught 50lb and up channel cats there were good eatting i'll tell you what good times
@ttr125rox Channel cats over 50 lbs? I doubt it. Channel cats barely get over 10 or 20 pounds. U sure they werent blue cats? I dont think those were channels especially since u call it a troutline I dont think thats ur field of expertice no offense
@rednecksniper1138 I caught a channel cat weighing 29 lbs on the Mississippi River above Memphis 3 years ago.The Tn record for channel cats is 39 lbs.If they have an adequate supply of food,like around a grain dock,catfish can get pretty big.
Lord this brings back many, many fun-filled memories of running trot lines on the Tombigbee River near Jackson, Alabama. My uncle has a camp on the river where we would often spend the entire weekend fishing. It's true, catfish will bite almost anything if given enough time. We once used ivory soap on a drop line and did catch one catfish. The river is heavily used by tugs pushing barges down to Mobile and up north. They use to drag heavy chains to run the bottom and bust the lines. Buggers
to timwins31 - yes many use ivory soap but you have to melt it down and do a few other things to it first. if you like you can try it in a net/bag/stocking first. there are many things catfish will eat
@Buglemintoday- yea thats what we use wen we trot line in the flint river in ga. we cut it in about 1 in cubes and today we got a 5 3/4 pound channel cat and he wuz 29'' long. thats pretty rare in the fint.
@Buglemintoday When I was a kid in the late 50's, my dad & I used P&G (proctor & gamble?) soap which was the right consistency for cutting into little 1" squares and the catfish loved it. Stay out all night by the river, run the lines, come back to truck, eat scrambled egg samiches, take an hour nap, go run them again.
I live in KY and used to set trotlines as a kid every year on vacation. It's a lot of work checking your lines at sunrise and dusk, but you'll have more than enough catfish and turtle to eat.
I cracked up at that one comment.
"I think they taste better than chicken. I could eat 'em with one foot in the far (fire)!"
I'm fairly certain that on the full episode, which aired on T.V., he said it was a boat dock and he just built the room on it and strapped a motor to it.
no ridesnow this isnt a news story it is kentucky afield the nations longest running hunting and fishing show. it the best outdoors show ever. they show everything from frog giggin to bowfishing all done in the great state of kentucky. the show airs every saterday night a 8:30 p.m. so if you get a chance tune in

@creamtt Channel Cats and Flatheads are pretty good as long as they're under about 10 pounds. Bigger than that and they get a muddy flavor.

@timwins31
Ivory soap is okay, But look for the Mexican Pink soap or " Zote Soap ", you can usually find it at Walmart near the laundy detergents.
It has a large animal fat content and puts a "smoke" of scent off once in the water and the catfish really like it.
