Basic Tactics for Catfish Channels and Flatheads 2 of 2

[metalvenom85]

80 pound test!!! you gotta give the fish a little chance. 20 pnd is what i use and i have alot of fun with light tackle

[4lifekx]

@metalvenom85 They only use 80 pound braid because they fish in pretty ruff and fast moving water and it helps pull a giant flat out from underneath brush or stumps and such.Helps keep from losing the fish in heavy cover.

[4lifekx]

@metalvenom85  Man that sucks you guys cant use bluegill and sunfish. Here in kentucky you can use common suckers, bluegill, sunfish,warmouth any kind of panfish besides crappie, chubs, goldfish, but we cant fish with bullheads. Always wanted to try bullheads, but its not worth the fine.

[jordan77265]

[koawaconorth]

My God, that is a set up for offshore kingfish.....not catfish.  ABU 5000 and a 5'6"

medium action pole is all you need for Blues, Flatheads, or Channel catfish. That rig you are using is rediculous for catfish.

[gdg9919]

@koawaconorth You obviously have never caught any nice Blues or Flatheads. They are perfect rigs.

[MTBrFISHrLIFTr]

@koawaconorth i learned the hard way thinking my extra heavy 7 foot bass rod and reel would be enough until a 3 flats in a row overpowered the drag and made a noodle out of the rod into a mess of trees.  now i use heavy action 7-8' musky rods and 5-7k size reels. plus you cant hardly cast out 6 ounces of weight plus 6 oz of fish with any lighter of a rod. channel catfish you dont really need this stuff, but for flats and blues hell yes you do

[4lifekx]

@koawaconorth Its because they fish in very fast moving water and it helps pull monster flatheads out from under neath cover.In calm water conditions, i dont go over 30# mono

[chicoandtheman900]

how do u catch bullheads i go catfishing alot but never used bullheads

[stubaby76]

hey man! like ur videos!!! what do u use for ur leader (for Flatsheads) ? if mono, what test pd.?? thankz

[cjswebsite]

thats how I do it in Illinois except I use blue gill and 2 poles. Does suck you cant have 2 poles becuase you will get more action and more fish

[flippintheweeds]

i would totally fall offf!

[DudeMrShadow]

Thx for the advice and nice presentation...  5 *

[78NCfanBABY78]

yeah man that sucks you can only have 1 line, in OHIO you can have two and also can use whatever you want for bait

[Arizonaslingshotboy]

whyy do you use catfish to catch catfish

[ipodztech]

to get out of a snag pull on the line not the rod

[pythonparker]

at my lokel pond i cot a big big big flat head on blue gill head

[Aphablueforce]

I like flathead more than channel.

[mcculloch172]

im gunna assume when you say "clicker" your refering to the drag settings.

[MreGSX]

@mcculloch172 No, a clicker is not drag, it pulls out freely to allow the fish to run with the bait and when you start reeling in it will then just use drag so you can bring the fish in.

[SCAREDYCATFISHIN]

man u need to throw some chicken liver on that channel pole, i always have better luck with chicken liver than cut bait

[SCAREDYCATFISHIN]

[MrPoonasty]

[SCAREDYCATFISHIN]

hey man plz keep your remarks to yourself, some people just dont understand the schematics of catfishing

[SCAREDYCATFISHIN]

do u know a single thing about cat fishin my friend? a 30 lb flat head would eat a pound bass if he was hungry, and i would know i have done it before no offense man!

[LocalGentry111]

We can have 7 fishing poles out at one time here in oklahoma. Unless the Rules of the lake state otherwise. some lakes have their own rules, .

[ruger1117]

1 line?!?! 33 hooks in MO.

[lespaul369]

I like to get right up close to the snags and fish the edge and go straight down! while holding the rod at all times. kinda like crappie jigging it

[douiopl]

It sounds like MN rules suck your limited to 3 lines in SC. You can have more becausc DNR never checks.

[Marax1231]

thinking like that will get you busted man i never thought they would catch me with a cast net that's to big fortunately  they just gave me a warning and said i had to either have no net or buy a smaller one

[SumbudS]

[AdeSautel09]

Great Video glad to see some supporting MN Catfishing. We do have monster channels and flatheads. Pretty surpising but i sucks right now. Cats Don't Bite In the Winter.

[bloozelover]

cats will bite in the winter you just have to locate the fish because they wont be in the same areas they were in during the other seasons

[keithsfishin]

@AdeSautel09 Actually we do catch channel cats through the ice in the winter in Minnesota. Its a real blast!

[mike250x]

sounds like you need to fish in a differnent state. Nice vid

[bmxer34343]

[porterc08]
