Try cattle cubes

I been using spinning reels my whole life and now I’m trying to figure out these bait casters out Does anyone have experience with the bait casters that have the magnets in them for casting?? Also my issue is if im right handed should i be using a left handed reel the only reason i ask is because being right handed thats your dominant hand and not using a level wind a conventional i have a hard time moving the line back and fourth with my left hand so it seems it would be easier using my dominant right hand for that

I put braided line on mine and backlashed it beyond repair. Going back to mono. Lol

My dad bought a fourteen foot rod from a garage sale for three bucks that was missing some guides. This is his river fishing bank fishing rod. He doesn't really fish with it that much it's more of a joke. I think he has thirty pound mono on the reel.

What's you recommendation for 7'6" 1P heavy madkatz rod for big catfish? I was leaning towards the ambassador STX round reel... thoughts? Advice?

I am struggling, thank you youngster, Have a blessed day

Great video bro👍👍👍

Try dogfood. It's filled with grease, meat, corn, bread, all the goodies catfish love

Your video made it seem very easy to throw a cast net. I have a 3 ft cast net coming today cannot wait to get out there and practice your technique I am an 80-year-old fisher lady

The best one is what work for you,just like being at the right place tight time 😊

DUDE THAT NET DIDN'T EVEN PANCAKE, LOL

This video zings !! I bought 3 penn squall 30lw's and even their product vids don't help me. The 30ld and lw are 2 different setups. Thanks a zillion.

Hey man, im the guy who won your reel giveaway. Hoping everything is going well. Was scrolling through my fishing playlist and saw the channel.

Catfishing is awesome

Liked and subscribed…. MaaaaN you answered all my questions while I’m looking for the best catfish rod for bank fishing… Thx

I know this one is old, but it is one of the better ones. To soften the tubing, if you don't have a heat gun, just soak the tubing in very hot water.

Avid Fisherman here. It does help cast better, and prevents Backlash "Birds nests"

Thanks so much, going out of state where catfish might be. I already have that same tiger combo for surf perch fishing washington state coast every few years.

What level wind reel are you using ?

I'm THAT hardcore spinning guy who just got his first baitcaster for catfishing and have backlashed it almost every other cast and about to shelf it for the season before I found this video. My dude.... ❤❤ I even made sure I had my line memory synced up with the baitcast reel cuz I didn't know. 🤣 Good to know; also for you for future if you follow the memory of new line with your spinning reel your GTG, it's only when you run it backwards (the spool goes the opposite way the line turns) then it trys to "pop off" when you open the bail. Thanks again homie!! 🎣

I've got 6 or 7 peen level wind I just used for pear fishing but now practice for distance. I watch all the videos I find about distance casting . this video was a wonderful blessing thank you young man. Papa wishing you well 😊

I wish the prices were like this these days 🤣

It's April 2024... sooo... um... I'm assuming I can't still enter the contest right? 🤔

Damn your Walmarts is actually neat, organized, and plays good music! Mine is always an ever loving wreck with sh!t scattered all over the place like a tornado or BLM riot just came through!😂😂

I caught over 100 pounds of cats on tiger sheaksphere out the big pee dee river bank fishing here last year. Great pole

That's not a big carp

CATFISHING IS AWESOME!

Thank for the teknis

Good show bud, new to this reel and this was helpful. Keep it coming

Just subscribed. Finally a video with levelwind reels! Love the idea you can tighten the tension knob all the way and cast without the thumb or nest because i cast 8+ oz with weight, leader+ bait in saltwater & the line physically burns my thumb as it is cast, so seeing i can cast it without the burn is fantastic. I got 100# 4 strand on my Penn Levelwind & 70# on my AG spinning reel. Casts smooth. Gonna try this technique this weekend in the yard with my Penn & see how it goes. Hope it works with no thumb or eagles nest 😂. 🤞... Thank you Sir for this video. BTW, what is that reel you have in this video?

Great video

GREAT VIDEO 😎

I tried it, and it birdy nested all over the place

Thank you for this informative podcast!! I have subscribed and will look forward to another one of your videos!! Best regards, Bob from AZ

Great video and I'm cool because it 40 degrees out😂

Thanks for the lesson! We moved to Pensacola FL from Oklahoma and I'm going to start surf fishing, and this is a great video for a beginner like me. I feel much more confident going out and trying it with my Penn Squall, and I'm definitely going to use the duct tape tip until I get it down.

I remember watching this a couple years ago when I came back to catfishing, I hadn't done so in 20 years. I've migrated to really heavy fast action rods. I run my reels in free spool, let the fish run a second then click the reel locking the spool. I have no problem with circle hooks missing this way. Appreciate the information

What kind and size reel are you using ?

You taught me how to throw a bait cast reel, rarely ever get a bird’s nest. Thank you kindly.

Very educational tutorial 😊

For more distance remove the level wind 😉

What are your thoughts on that one that you showed that is white with yellow and black trim on the line guides? That looks like the Goture which I'm looking at on Amazon. They have that in 7 ft and 7.6 ft two piece configuration. Some people say it's a broomstick, others say it's super wobbly. Or from what you showed in yours it looks like it bends down through the middle quite a bit. I currently use the ugly stik catfish special (the new orange ones) at 8 ft length and I have one of the newer ugly stick white catfish rods in a 7-ft length. The difference between those two for me is the action on the tip. The catfish special is a moderate tip and the white ones are moderate fast. They both have medium/ heavy power. I have a love-hate relationship with them. But anyway I'd love to hear your thoughts on everything above. Thanks!

Finally someone that knows what he’s talking about. I been watching videos and nobody mentions the tension knob and you do because you know wtf your talking about 👍

I magged my reels set the tension to zero. You can then really cast that thing . The spool has to be matal not carbon fiber or plastic. Good video. I clicked the subscribe button but it didnt make me any cooler than I all ready am. 😅

Any fisherman that talks while trying not to drool out dip spit automatically gets my respect. 🫡 definitely subscribing

Bloody rod = many catfish on that rod have been caught

Ive known about this rig for a long time but this really was a great explanation of when and why to use it

That's not what the side knob on a star drag is for. The side knob is to adjust the side play on a star drag reel. You always want a slight amount of side play. Putting pressure on the spool with the knob is a good way to prematurely wear out your bearings.

I especially liked the way you covered size..not
