    I really like that cutting board , you know you don't see many 10 year olds that can guess a fishes weight with in 2 lbs while its still in the water . And he's a good camera man , really good camera man . Most adults have problems holding the camera that smooth . I might need too borrow him haha

    never really targeted catfish here in my home state of Ky but I know there are plenty of good opportunity's to catch lots of good cat's here. I'm close to cave run and the three forks of the Ky River in eastern Ky and some beautiful stretches of the KY river around the Irvine Richmond area so as i'm gettin older now and the bank in the bend of a river or a old log in a reservoir seems to call my name a little more, So love your channel and it's always great to see a Dad taking his kid fishing great memories for you and him , good clean channel. God Bless.

    Not bad Looking Rods. Its nice ,you dont have to spend alot of Money on Rods Reels, and get the job done. I Love name brand Reels, but Diawa, And Garcia, refuse to offer a left hand crank Reel, Except " OKUMA" as one example. We just use Big 6000 series KastKing Sharkey3 Bait Feeder Reels, And Wisker Seeker Rods. Good Quality for Money. We just use Mono all Around. Berkley big game ," SUCKS" on Spinning Reels, but just fine on Open face Reels. I use Orange Co Polymer Wisker Seeker Line. Either way , you have a System that works for you just fine. Heat Shrink is great especially, keep handles new or dinged up ones protected. Great Video Thanks.

      @hagengrubbsfishing  Před 3 lety +1

      If the knot is tied right they are very strong. The technique that Chris souders teaches is great. I’ve caught some 30s and 40lb fish on them. I’m confident that if a monster bit on one it would hold him. Thank you for watching.

      There are big fish in the Kentucky river but this pool of the river has always been tough fishing. I talked to a local biologist about it and They said the forage base was as low as they had ever seen in this part of the river and the river was so channelized that during floods most of the fry gets washed downstream.

      I like the betts super pro and the fitech super spreaders. The larger the mesh the more durable they are. Of course the mesh size greatly depends on the size bait you are looking for. I strictly use 1” mesh. Thanks for watching.
