Flathead season is finally here!!! Time to pull out my best live baits and head down to my local river! Trying out a new bait and scouting new potential locations for big flatheads hiding in the river. Catching a flathead catfish during the day can be difficult but here’s a few tips and tricks that I like to use!

Crayfish man crayfish at least you put the drum back got to give you props for that hate people that catch something and then chopping up and use one piece of it
Nice. I would have grilled that drum. I love to catch them in Lake Mich. around Chicago's lake front and in Port Clinton in Ohio.
Hello, I'm new to your channel and to fishing. Can you please make a video on how you set up your pole rigs for catfish. Thank you
I would catfish there but I feel like I’d pull out something the police would be involved in 😬
Sling n' Love the video. Where did you get those fishing rod holders?
How’s the cat’s on the west side? I’m in TN Knoxville we have flatheads but blue cats I catch lot more of. My go to bait is cut skipjack. Them blues eat it up. Love the videos Bro. Your setup is clean too.
Lol first thing I said when you put that crawfish on is he going to catch a drum 😆
you know what we all can agree that with how this world is today of people fighting and killing each other over race and politics but I put them behind a fishing pole and fish we can come together talk about the size we catch and what line and hook we use with out fighting
Your just hurting the fish insted of taking home for food is it just for views and likes, for us sometimes we got nothing for consumption for you your just hurting all the fish
