Need to put in at Madison and fish by the power plant. Have lived down there 49 years. Nothing to see a 65lb blue or 50lb flathead. You also have the lock down river at Vevay that area has some big fish also

Was just telling my fishing buddy last weekend about how you don’t really fish our kind of waters down in TN. Next video is two hrs from the house 😅. Love the videos, keep it up!

HOLY-🐄!! I had to rewind it to see again, and you were right, that fish done choked on the bait AND the Stinger!😱😂

That was some impressive fishing. It seems your style is better than the people fishing from high dollar boats. You definitely know how to catch big fish. Thanks Justin.

@dalewood5964 9 ай бұрын

Don't know for sure but I bet you don't know how much Justin hates boats going by at 50 mph while he is doing one mph. And actually I didn't ask for your opinion! I was commenting Justin!!

@fredziffel3443 9 ай бұрын

As a young man, I used to fish under anchored/moored barges along the Tennessee River. Since 9/11 that's an "iffy" proposition anymore, but we pulled some monsters out "back in the day". I've never heard of the bite increasing as a barge goes by tho... Thanks for the "learnin experience". 😅

@mdillon4321 9 ай бұрын

I live in West Virginia next to the Ohio River,and the barge bite is definitely a thing. It doesn't work all the time,obviously, but it does usually work if there are fish around your bait.😊

Hello Justin, great to see you in my neck of the woods. Best of luck to you, look forward to seeing your next program. Take care 👍

@rchilsstandardpoodles8029 9 ай бұрын

Justin, water depth is what makes the main difference. If the water is shallow enough for the barge engines to stur up the bottom...you get your barge bites. If water is to deep, they can't stur up the bottom, which brings in the bait fish, hence catfish.

@cruzenkats1437 9 ай бұрын

I was also catching them down there in 20 foot of water next to bank on Indiana side before the curve down river.

I really enjoy your videos. You surely are a great talker. You should try the Missouri River. I have caught giant cats all over but none of them fight as hard as the giants I have caught in the Missouri River. The current of the Missouri River grows them tough.

I've witnessed barge bites on that river so many times. The couple bridges I like to fish going over the lakes get hot when cars go over. But, when the Amish come across the bridge everything shuts down.

Great video Mister Justin 😁 and you want to hear a story, I was fishing yesterday with a rooster tail spinner and I caught a 5 pound channel cat on the little rooster tail spinner and I wasn't expecting it and I even told my friend that was with me that if we had worms that the spot were I caught the catfish, that it would be a good spot to catch one and then I caught one and I wasn't even fishing for a catfish isn't that crazy 😅😅😅

I really enjoy your videos and really appreciate all the good knowledge and tips! Just started catfishing more regularly this summer. I live in Michigan so we don't have blues but you can find channel and flatheads. I was wondering what is the kayak you use in most of your videos with the trolling motor setup? I'm a bigger guy at 6ft 2in and about 260lbs and I'd like to get into the kayak fishing. Thanks for all your videos and keep up the awesome stuff

Why do you never try half backed skip jack ? baking with somme spices only the outside of the skip jack ?? So you can still hook it verry well ;-) it it is worth a try ! somme days if you catch nothing you could try to turn the tide with this . Lots of days if the fish dont take the traditional baits they will take sommething they dont know, just to taste it ;-)
