Great job, friend. It's going to be a tight race to the end between you and Ryan for the championship. Hate to be biased, but i hope you come out on top over-all. I cant help it you deserve it for all the quality videos you bring to us for viewing entertainment. Not to mention all the hard work you have put into having the knowledge to chase quality fish and sharing that knowledge with us so we can chase quality cats.

I may be wrong but I never see any other fishing shows catch the amount of fish you constantly catch. I know it's not all back-to-back and time passes by in between but still the amount of fish you catch on your videos is amazing. I love watching your Tournament videos those are my favorite they keep me on the edge of my seat and I get an anxiety attack whenever you measure a fish thinking it's going to flop off that board go in the water before you can get a proper measurement and take a picture well keep up the good work I look forward to the next one.

Hey Justin !!! Awesome video!!!! Especially after my unexpected fish I caught while catfishing tonight! Friday April 26 at 930pm was catfishing in the housatonic river in Connecticut. Average catfish is 5 pounds, channel cats get up to 20 pounds. I was using my catfish rig with 15 pound mono. I was using Fall Fish as cut bait. Rod bent over and drag took off. After about 10 minutes of fighting something that was jumping, I landed a 4 foot ( 51 inches exact ) Northern Pike. There is no logical reason on why I was able to catch this fish, especially in the dark. I didn’t have a leader, only 15 pound test, I shouldn’t have been able to land this fish. This was my first northern pike and I still can’t believe I caught it. Pike usually go after huge lures and live bait.

@KayakCatfish Ай бұрын

Congrats on that big pike

@peterderidder9922 Ай бұрын

GOLDEN TIP ! Congrads Justin ! ! Seek for a verry small place in youre kayak to put in a rainjacket and rainpants ... So everywhere you go you have it always with you ;-) ! It dont need a lot of space if you rol it up. 😉

gotta be pretty difficult dealing with the waves in a kayak, I hope everyone can understand that everyone is entitled to fish in whatever vessel is legal it would be nice for them to slow down and not hit you with a wake. Fisherman are fisherman whether you chase the same type of fish or not if people complain someone will be happy to make boating illegal if they can do it. not saying you specifically

@dank-mcpuffins1267 Ай бұрын

Remember to buy a cheap rain poncho, there a few bucks at the pro commie China retail store (Walmart) they fold up in to a napkin size, easy to put somewhere in tackle bag or on the yak. I scored a bunch awhile back in the clearance section, paid 0.50 cents each.

i have a huge question for you @kayackCatfish, [top end of Kerr lake or lower end] for cat fishing. this time of year is a nightmare for kayak fishing, lived here all my life absolutely love to eat catfish, I use a small paddle kayak but I have paddled from bottom to top of the lake, I don't intend on catching 20 pound and up but aye if I do I will record it for you! I have been dying to get back out fishing i don't care about competitions the thing I want most is food on the table and a good time!, big fish extra fun because I get to show everyone I got a free ride from a fish dragging me across the lake!

The only reason why the bigger one is lay still on the board is because they're tired out from fighting so much them. Younger fish are full of energy. Not like the big boys
