I Couldn't Keep The BIG Fish Off My Baits!

all right people catfish dave here gonna pretty much cut the intro to this video bottom line i had a good day out here so there's no time for talking it a lot of reeling in fish a lot of reeling in quality fish guys are asking me on on my comments about my gear one guy asked what's the stick looking thing that is a drifting stick that's the name of the brand drifting sticks uh basically they're designed to where they don't get hung up that bad you can lose them i've lost about two doing this and i've caught a lot of fish before i lost them you know i'm tying a basic swivel 80 pound test float to suspend the bait 10 odd mustang demon wide gap but you can't even find these right now and then to make weight changes if i want to just anchor fish with some heavy weight i'm using this sinker slide right here and i can easily take this uh dragon weight off and i can put on like an eight ounce pencil weight if i'm fishing heavy current that's my basic setup if i'm suspending baits of course i'm just using a regular short carolina rig with a sinker over the top no float most of my rods are these big cat fever heavies i'm a daiwa guy i like these seagates i don't like level wine reels let's get into the video there's a little dinky there's a little dinky fish [Music] there we go [Music] that's a little better fish right there [Music] we finally got hooked up [Music] [Music]

didn't come out here with a lot of bait and if i'm on fish sunday i need to come up with some skipjack it's going to be a long video to edit i could sit here and catch fish all day long bottom line man as i've hit this shallow water pattern these bat creek systems not where a creek flows in because that's the colder water there's the big creek out there and what i'm in is these little side coves that's where i've been getting all my big fish they're just bunched up in these little side coves right now this time of year and anywhere from eight to three feet of water i've made video after video caught big fish doing this pattern this time of year right now including a 62 pounder y'all already seen that video so either way it is a video there was fish in the video that makes it a fishing video this is catfish stable with another one signing out [Music] you
