2 channel catfish on liver 3lb and 1.75lb ARKIEPRINCE - 45 views - 2 days ago
Can't keep Secret-7 on hook - little bait thieves (little catfish) steal bait. I hooked a couple but they are really small - so I started using chicken liver by wrapping it with rubber bands (only way I can keep it on hook)

4 cats with Secret-7 - 2 with chicken liver ARKIEPRINCE - 99 views - 1 week ago
SInce guy beat me with liver the other day - I used liver on one hook - but I forgot to check it and bait was missing for a while. As result Secret-7 stink bait put 4 in boat - liver put in 2. I may have missed count in dark - I think there were 7 if I count the little 1 lb that swallowed hook i.e. I had to keep it. Most were a little under 2 lbs up to 2.5 lbs

Bait hook setup ARKIEPRINCE - 89 views - 1 week ago
Friends ask which dip bait hook setup I like best - this shows several methods but I like #2 treble hooks with a spring (from hardware store) - then the 'furry thing' from teamcatfish - then the #4 spring treble hooks (but they are too small IMHO)

secret-7 for 7 more ARKIEPRINCE - 222 views - 2 weeks ago
Only fished 2 hours - and was low on Secret-7 so I used magic bait and catalpa worms - but all 7 fish were taken with Secret-7. I missed one weight in video: here is list lowest to highest (lbs - oz) 1-2, 1-13, 1-14, 1-15, 1-15, 2-3, 2-6
BTW: wax worms (see other video) and catalpa worms (see other video) are both in good shape - I put 300 full grown catalpa in freezer and have over 1000 wax worms about 3/4 grown.
Really need a local dealer for Secret-7 bait :(

More eater size Channel Catfish (4.5 lb 2lb 6oz 1lb 3oz) ARKIEPRINCE - 102 views - 2 weeks ago
Still doing sting bait test - today I waited until later (hoping wind would die down but it didn't). Went out at 6PM and had to stop at 8PM so I could clean fish before dark (one was dying and would not keep until AM)
All 3 were on Secret-7 stink bait. I has 5 lines out - one with catalpa worms - one with Magic bait - one with half magic/ half Secret-7 - two with Secret-7.

My catalpa trees produce ARKIEPRINCE - 135 views - 2 weeks ago
I planned two catalpa trees in my backyard 2.5 years ago - and they are loaded with catawba (catalpa) worms this year. There are plenty of trees around here but only 8 or 10 out of 20+ ever have worms. I helped a neighbor plan another tree last fall - it should be ready by next year and it's on the edge of the lake
I've fished with catalpa for past 3 days and haven't got a catfish - except on stink bait (Secret 7) - see other video for examples (btw: my blog list more that I did not make into video)

Raising waxworms ARKIEPRINCE - 155 views - 3 weeks ago
I love to bream fish - mainly to relax - but also to use the bream as trotline bait. So I raise all my own bait - including red worms and crickets - and now the new addition = waxworms

This was my first batch of babies - all is going well. For next batch I'll be using homemade food (honey, glycerine and baby cereal

Footnote: I'm still catching 2 or 3 cat fish each day but not worth making video (and I've even been lazy about updating my blog :(

Secret-7 bait = 5 cats in 2hrs ARKIEPRINCE - 423 views - 4 weeks ago
Was goofing around at 4PM - 6PM - testing Danny King bait vs Secret-7 bait - guess what I'm now a Secret-7 fan - got 5 catfish - one about ever 15 minutes cause I goofed off between catches :) Largest was 5 lbs 2oz - smallest was about a pound. Checked others = one at 1.5 lbs - one at 1.75lbs and one at 2 lbs 4 oz

Baby ducks born ARKIEPRINCE - 124 views - 1 month ago
Been watching the mom duck sit for 25 days (at least). This AM a baby duck stuck his head out at 7:30AM - I tried to catch them in nest but it was 1.5 hours before they finally came out and started moving down the lake
BTW: catfish are still biting but all small ones on yoyo's on fishing pier (my next door neighbor loves all these 1 - 2 lb (typical) - cause they make a meal for her
BTW: Big bream fishing has been great - so I finally managed to bait the trotline last night with all big bream (got a big drum on trotline) - a big gar on yoyo (using a little bream) - but no big catfish in couple weeks (hurt my back so haven't been fishing as much- but got a couple bream that are HUGE - did not use them on trotline to feed turtles and gar)

19 lb Catfishes :) ARKIEPRINCE - 153 views - 2 months ago
Got a ton of bream yesterday (see blog) - so baited trotline last night - ended up with two catfish - one 12 3/4 lb flathead and one 6 1/4 lb channel. Flathead was 29-30" long compared to 33" = 16 lb and 36" = 23 lb

BTW: Both of these were so full of eggs - I only got 6 lbs of meat - while the 16 lb the other day was likely a male - no eggs and I got 6.5 lbs e.g. better yield even for 'poor cleaner' like me :)

Lake Conway May 2009 flood water ARKIEPRINCE - 131 views - 2 months ago
Lake at flood level in front of my house - Water got about 2" higher after I made this video - almost got to my front door :(

At least the bream fishing is Excellent from the bank - they are playing in the grass and easy to catch - everywhere you see them playing (easy to sneak up on them with fly rod :)

All taken on live bream. Live bream is the best bait for flathead - or so they say (the fishermen say - not the flathead :)

Neighbors who put trotline closer to their house are lucky. First night after putting line from a shallow levy (old pond) - to middle of the very shallow pond - they got a 36 lb fish and an 8lb fish

e.g. the old shallow pond is not a likely looking spot cause there are no stumps / cover - and the overall depth is really not deeper than the stumps in front of my house

Sometimes it's just being in the right spot - being lucky :) :)
( I may put my line over in same place he keeps catching my fish :)

I just started fishing Lake Conway and would really enjoy hearing any fishing tips or just talking about fishing there.
