I HOOKED A RIVER MONSTER!!!!

hi y'all justin with kayak catfish well i am on the water right here at john got what looks like it's going to be a beautiful sunrise starting to come up over the tree line over there i'm looking forward to seeing that but most importantly i'm looking forward to catching some fish today come with me let's get them [Music] well i got a fish on right here man i just got lines in i just got lines in oh man he's pulling too he's a pulling i've had lines in just a couple minutes here y'all i was just getting kind of situated and we off to a good start y'all i have off spot locked right at the top of a deep hole i fished out here a few days ago did a live stream which for my regular audience you would have seen this now probably two weeks ago by the time this video comes out i'm so far behind on getting videos edited but i had a good trip down here and i got down in this hole this whole um right now up here at the top of it it's 60 feet here but it's going to drop off down into like 96 feet and so i'm starting out i thought i'll give it 30 minutes here at the top edge to see what's going on up here any active fish working out of this hole and then i'll go down into it and spend the rest of my trip so i got a really good fish on the live stream down in that hole but i mean this is a very quick start we still ain't even got the sun the sky is getting prettier by the second over there but the sun still ain't even it i think it's gonna be a decent fish here to start off with too nice takedown this is on a a chunk of skipjack i'm lately i've been running two rods with chunks and two rods with heads and that's the same setup i'm rolling with today i got the heads on the left side of the kayak and body sections over here excited to get this thing up here and see what we're dealing with seeing some big bubbles yeah that's a that's a fun size blue to start the morning heck yeah man off to a great start y'all oh he ain't he ain't hooked very good y'all this hook is oh get up in here now this hook is kind of right behind the look right there it just come right out man it was right behind like the bony play there in the upper part of his mouth let me hold that devil up here skinny fish i mean this fish here is textbook post spawn all right i mean it's just skinny here in another month this fish will be a lot bigger he should be a lot heavier for his for his length but uh still a dang good fight man he took that rod over hard give me a battle this is a nice start for fish number one normally if i catch a dink or something i'll say well we got nowhere to go but up from here but this is uh hopefully we improve from here but this is a nice one to be fish number one see you buddy how you going well y'all i'm gonna get another bait on there again i got the heads on the left side of the kayak chunks on the right i'm running my stinger fly rigs on all four rods today i finally got around to tying me up some more so we got those on there which is if you're new to my channel or you haven't been here in a while it's basically i've taken my carolina rig which got the egg sinker there down to a liter 10 oz size circle hook below that circle hook though about eight to twelve inches or so i got these flies that's a five out size hook well just a a fly on there that dangles down under my piece of cut bait just gives a little something extra i've caught a lot of fish on that fly so enough of me talking though we got to get another bait on there we'll have everything out again but uh it's gonna be a good day i can feel it my bones y'all it's gonna be a good one here's another one here's another one right here the sun comes up y'all good timing that sun just got up over the tree line and this fish knew it man this fish knew a lot of you all been out all night since ain't seen a sunrise in forever and this fish wanted you to at least see it on video if you can't see it in real life at least watch it on video after the fact we got another one on a chunk here you know this bait down there it's 58 59 feet deep this bait's just sitting right off the bottom and i'm just gonna stay parked here on top of this top edge of this hole as long as i'm getting bit but i do want to ease off into it at some point this morning and see what's down there about 96 feet deep i pulled a dang good now there during that live stream and then that fish proceeded to tail slap me right in the gonads i still ain't walking right oh it's a good fish man he didn't fight that hard but that's a really good fish that's a lot bigger than the last one oh man he's still ain't he's barely fought y'all i got a feeling this fish here is gonna whoop my tail i wouldn't always get him in the kite because he's barely done anything he should still be full energy all right i don't think i've tried playing him out a little bit here but he just ain't got no energy this fish has done plenty more out he's been up all night i reckon he's been partying last night he's he's had it this is like some old party animal stopping it waffle house or denny's on the way home you know that's what this fish is trying to do well we got the sun behind us it's a beautiful sight but unfortunately it's putting a shadow on this fish this fish can't even get a good picture not that he care he's too tired to care he's pooped all over the kayak too that's wonderful fish thank you [Laughter] i would say it was a great fight but it really wasn't especially for the this fish right here should have been a battle man and it kind of a letdown that's all right still a nice fish though that's two quality fish here to start the trip get out of here buddy go rest up we'll do it again someday when you got more energy how you going well i guess i'm gonna wash out the kayak here a little bit he's uh that fish needs a bidet is what he needs hellotushie.com don't go to tushy.com i learned that lesson the hard way but he has kyle there's more of it right here i'm going y'all don't want to see this i was looking at this right here then i just glanced up and seen he got me right there too and all up there that fish is gonna be embarrassed when he's soaked up that's what's that's what's gonna happen he's gonna be plumb embarrassed i got another one on this back rod here man look at that go oh man oh man oh man he's pulling some drag he's still going golly boom let me get set up here now but he hadn't just made a run i had set here a little while after that fish that pooped all over everything and was contemplating getting down in that hole there now i'm glad i didn't i'm glad i'm just sitting here man that wasn't you know when this fish first hit the rod i kind of was looking at there and and didn't think a whole lot of it and then it just took off and just started pulling the drag that's exciting when that happens i'll keep my drag pretty tight you know i got a feeling this is going to be a good fish feels good that last fish could have felt like this too but he he had just been up all night i guess he didn't have no energy this one here though but this one here woke up on the wrong side of the bed he's mad he's done had his morning coffee and a half a grapefruit and he's ready to roll man the the the fish that eat the grapefruit for breakfast are always more energetic than the ones that eat the grape nuts you remember that old cereal grape nuts i don't know if they still make it was awful but this one here he didn't have no grape nuts this morning i don't even know why they called that cereal grape nuts i don't know if it had grapes or nuts in it it is awful though i don't know why the hell i'm talking about grape nut cereal while i got a big fish on the line here this thing's just a pulling man he's pulling he's stripping more drag now another one i want to chunk the heads over here haven't been messed with but the chunks have been going down which is fine hell i don't care it'll make a bit of difference to me what bait they eat i just want them to eat it and this one's pulling man this is a pull my arm's gonna be tired after this and y'all it's the biggin i may have to spin the kayak around and get some pitchers in the sunlight on this one man i i think it's a blue so i kind of it felt like it was rolling just then well who knows we'll see if we get him up here i guess this one right here has been a fun this one right here makes the morning y'all the other two were a nice start this in here is the main event and the morning's still young it's just now 7 37 there on the clock we ought to be getting close to him now i got the live scope on but i don't i don't see him on it yet wow that is a it's a nice fish but for the fight i am i would thought this fish was going to be much bigger what a powerful fish for his size the other one didn't fight at all and this one fought with twice the strength he should have i mean that's a good fish but i thought i had a jaguar monster on wow that fish definitely had his coffee and grapefruit right there y'all well let's get hold of this thing again i mean this is a nice fish but for the fight i was just expecting so much bigger all right y'all let me hold this thing up about goofed up man i i already held this fish up and talked to the camera and i realized the light wasn't blinking a damn camera had turned off about let this fish go but man it's a good fish man three fish each one of them a little bigger than the last and you know i'm not getting musical rods out here i don't have small fish tearing up my baits it's just been solid fish here i keep increasing each as each fish's size here about another air i'm going to have me an 80 pounder oh man all right well i was hoping to turn into the sun and the dang sun's blind to me to get a picture here but it is what it is that was a fun fight though let's let him go get out of here fish that's fist pump worthy man front camera and fist pump worthy man that was fun arm's tired after that yeah arm's tired what a great morning to start out here i got to get this camera and turn this way i'm i'm blinded by that sun but man we're off to a good start man i'm still sitting here i'll show you here i mean 61 feet there's all this debris and stuff right here you can see on the screen and then it drops off here's another big mark right here there's another one coming in behind me that's a big mark there's all this debris right here and then it drops off real sharp down to 96 feet and i got all that debris here during the live stream i made my way down to this area i fished the that little debris pile there and got some fish on the live stream again that was filmed a few days ago but regular viewers you saw it probably two weeks ago by the time you're seeing this video but it was when i moved down to the to the deeper part of this hole that i got my biggest fish that day so i wanted to come back out here i want to try this area again at dawn first light see if i could get some activity period going during here at dawn which i'm excited people following my words i'm trying to get it out there's oftentimes a feeding window at dawn if i can slow down and speak and i wanted to see what was going on here at that hole at dawn and man i am glad i come out here today but enough of this let's get this bait back down and catch some more that last fish threw the bait off so i'm just gonna put another chunk on that's a chunk of skip jack and that right there is is the size of the bait that the last one ate just a small chunk gut pocket cut out got the stinger fly dangling under it i'll drop it down let the sinker hit bottom and then raise it up a couple feet it'll just be sitting there just waiting on that next fish to come through speaking of next fish here we go well that's going to pull some drag too that's gonna pull some drag too okay oh man own some biggins here y'all own some biggins another one on the chunk this one just on the front rod this time oh boy oh boy this hang on engine troy the fight this is what makes i mean this is catching big fish is fun whether you own a boat or the bank or a kayak but it's just it's a heck of a lot more fun than a kayak i don't i just no matter how many times i do this no matter how old i get it just don't lose its appeal to me i love doing this oh yeah he's a blue i felt him roll just then gosh he's strong he's either strong or he's got me in part of that debris down there goodness gracious on the live stream i had set up right on top of that debris and out here this morning i kind of got beside it so i was afraid a fish come up and hit and run me straight down into it i really thought there might be some flatheads living in that stuff and it probably is golly behind this and strong man i thought the last one was strong this one here is just solid white goodness man i may just be too my arm's tired from that lasting steal this one here didn't give me much of a break this could have been that big fish we saw on the screen there on the live scope goodness man boy my signature series golly whopper rods well they're pulling in some golly whoppers this morning ain't they getting a test buddy i love these rods like the best kayak fishing catfishing rod on the market when you battling these big fish like this this short handle on this thing which allows me to keep my arm close to my body it is very helpful because you got your arm extended on a big fish like this and you wear out quick this in here he gonna wear me out regardless this one's strong man that's gonna be a fight right here i may have to hell i may end up cutting some of this fight out editing some of it out because it's i'm gonna run out of commentary before i get this thing up they keep biting like this i may not even move into the deeper part of this hole may not have to as long as they biting right here i ain't moving i'm just gonna stay spot locked right on this spot keep my lines under me got a little current out here this morning that's always a big help anytime you got current pushing your scent trail dispersing that blood and the oils and stuff it helps these fish lock in on your baits so thankful for the current these fish are active this morning they're very active the big ones are anyway okay we're getting close i see the bubbles that is a whopper man oh man that's a whopper right there oh that's a whopper man oh yeah whoo i'm gonna let him tire out a second we got a boat coming here i don't want this boat to see where i'm catching fish at or nothing i ain't gonna be able to land this thing for another few seconds anyway because he's gonna have to he gonna have to tire himself out fish like this or wreck a kayak you bring him into green all right i think we got him tamed i think we got him tamed here y'all it's time that's a monster man that's a monster oh man oh man let's get him in let's get him in oh buddy oh buddy i about fell out oh buddy he got my seat cushion he's got everything but i got him man oh buddy i got him i got him look at that right there y'all look at that man oh man that's a beast buddy that's a daggone beast right there oh i got to hook out what's left of the base still in his mouth where's my tank man oh man this was an ordeal to land this in buddy ordeal [Laughter] oh love it look at my back rod oh my back rod's going down it's going down hard here behind me let's set him down just a second here oh oh he's going crazy he's going crazy look at his back right here look at this background is he still on he's still on i got another one another one on the chunk i want to fight this one for a second get him up here and then i'm going to get this one get to some pictures done and get him going i don't want to leave him in the floor too long man i'm out of breath y'all oh man this is another good fish here in my hands he ain't gonna be as big as the one in the floor but he's a good oh oh how awesome is this man i'm on a whopper bite today i'm on a daggone whopper bite man okay that's a fun size that's a fun size he's got to go back in the rod holder he's got to go back in the rod holders we got to get some pictures with this and get this thing going man awesome freaking awesome man i gotta get spun around here into the sun okay let's try this again this is a heavy one man oh man i gotta hold this and i gotta set him like this oh i gotta hold him up he's slippery i'm trying to get his tail around there oh man i got a boat going by too gonna catch my breath a minute y'all more i want to get this fish back in i want to lay in this other [Music] what an awesome day that's all i can say about it man i'm speechless i'm just i'm running my mouth but i'm speechless one last look at this guy [Laughter] [Music] my arm's so tired from reeling him in oh man [Music] there he is all right i don't about fell out of this thing trying to get him in the kayak i'm just gonna lean over and let him slide out here we go you ready see you buddy here you go i got this other one back here still pulling i'm laying dip now what an awesome morning man i am so glad i come back down here let me get that camera spinal up there this one here this one here is a good fish this is a solid fun-sized fish but compared to the ones i've already got out here he just ain't he ain't living up to the standards of these others okay let's bring us an end now let's bring him in [Music] quick look at him i want to get these body chunks back down in the water these fish that is now five fish all in the body chunks the heads haven't been touched they've shown a clear preference for these this cut of the bait and right now i don't have a single piece down there so my days my whole week's made with that fish y'all that was freaking awesome oh finally getting some action on the head over here damn head bait my line's out there i'm on oh he's got it he's got it folks head bait's finally getting a little action these things have been duds thus far normally the heads are my my confidence baits my big fish baits but today it's been them small chunks that have got it done oh listen here but he come up they come up quick that head's about as big as his head goodness gracious fish oh hold on hold on let's set him back well this rod here had gotten hit unless i'm imagining things yeah i must be imagining things or we had a finally had a dink tap on it listen here what are the odds if you told me that i was going to come out and catch all these big fish and the smallest fish of the morning here was going to be on the head i'd have called you a liar but by gosh that's what's happened thus far well he just come free got the quick release on him he's got my stinger boy he sat down there and rolled on that that's a mess right there i'll pick that out here in a second they got that all tangled up meanwhile meanwhile but my graph my graph's all all discombobulated here from that fish flashing around oh yes we got one two marks right there right there near my back baits those are big marks folks there are some golly whoppers in this area man and i'm catching them all right here we go again here we go again man here we go again i've had a few minutes y'all i've had a few minutes between fish and now the next one's hooked up another one on the chunk too it's amazing that's why i like a variety man if i got multiple baits i'll put them out if i got the same bait like today just having skip jack put out a head put out a midsection you know mix up the cuts you just never know what a fish is going to show preference for on a particular day but with this many fish on the chunks and only one small one on the head you can't tell me that they ain't got a preference right now for these mid-section pieces what a morning and it's just now about to turn 8 30. oh it's a that's a larger dank larger dank he's he's upset there folks he's a lot of days you know that fish right there might be might be a star of the show and a video like today he's worried he may not even make the final cut of the video he may not if these bigons keep biting i may have to edit him out it happens to some of these small fish you know you can't put them all in a video when you when you've had a big day this one here i i don't know fish you you big enough you might make a video i'll at least lie to him you know it's kind of like kind of like the women in your life you gotta lie to them a little bit keep them feeling good well oh well fish he's being an ornery thing he's got a stinger hook in the belly is what his problem is he had done been going if he'd let me get it but he did all that splashing around there he goes that fish missed his chance he missed this chance i was gonna hold him up and put him on camera in a video like this and he might have had somebody watch it you know an agent or something and book him on a on one of them comic con deals but uh boy i got water in my eyeballs y'all i can't wipe my face on just any part of my arm because i'm covered in slime what a problem to have right and i am covered man head to toe and slime it's been that kind of morning it's been a good well i imagine there's about four people still watching at this point three events who liked me and just watched till the end and probably at least one avians there who fast forwarded and just landed on the spot but if you are still watching i got bad news i get home i'm editing the footage of this trip and a damn gopro got me again the second half of my morning i got video i got no audio i'm just on mute i don't know what went wrong the video looks fine the audio is nothing so the second half of this trip just got ruined from video purposes but i did end up sticking one more really good fish got another really nice blue i got several more small fish the the big bites there were early and then the small fish kind of moved in i ended up moving down to that deeper hole that i'd mentioned and just got some small fish out of there but uh gopro i said so if you film with gopro you're gonna lose some footage at some point it happens it happened to me now so it is what it is at least we got the biggest fish video and audio and everything so if you've stuck around this long in the video thanks i appreciate the heck out evians hey daphne the dog come over here and tell these people that's still watching tell them tell them hit the like and subscribe maybe we'll get audio in the future look at her look at her collar here she's proud of this collar y'all ain't seen that in a while hey tell them tell them bye tell them we'll see them in the next one she don't say nothing she won't do anything i say this dog right here she's in the fire pit all the time she's made her a doggy door through the bottom of my porch screen door this dog does whatever she wants and nothing that i want but anyway i'm out of here y'all we'll do better in the next one hopefully that we won't have no more camera malfunctions in the next one i'll see
