- On this kayak catfishing trip, I was doing some anchor fishing using cut skipjack and bluegill for bait. It was an awesome morning of fishing with several blue catfish and a huge flathead being caught.

He was sitting there staring at you taking in the moment because you are the biggest youtuber he ever caught.
Hahaha!!!
That, or thanking Justin for letting him go!
@@OhioCatfishChasers yeah I always hear people will eat flatheads all the time
Isn't the water contaminated there and with what
@@robertlucas2420 I am from Harriman, Tn, fished that river as a kid, we would keep the fish and have a fish fry at the local park on Friday to raise money for the park. A lot of people developed some type of cancer. 70's, lot of people ate fish from that river. Justin has caught cats with sores, deformed tails and discoloration. Runoff, untreated water from corporations, TVA plants with coal ash and, arsenic had settled in the bottom of the river, making fish unsafe to eat, arsenic, pcb's, chlordane, mercury are just a few of the chemicals that affect the river. There are warning signs up and down the river about eating the fish.
He said “today is a good day to have a good day”. Love it lol.
Yes sir that caught my attention also. It’s so cool to see a guy find so much joy fishing andt passionate about it. I’m am so grateful to all have fishing as a stress relief for me😎
I know right,then you have those whacko people out there that complain your hurting the fish,they have feelings. To me,you made those monsters day especially putting them back for someone else to have fun
Now THAT'S a fisherman!!! His excitement was so strong I think some of that river water got me wet!! 😂
As a bass fisher man, and a new viewer, I was genuinely supprised when you called that first blue cat 'small' haha.
Yep. I was thinking the same thing
@@michaelschneider5654 same as me literally thanking The same thing
Well, blues are known to get upwards of 100lbs, same with flatheads.
That said, I'd love to get a 10-20 lbs cat.
Finally someone who knows how to release a trophy fish. Tired of seeing them get thrown back in after a huge fight. Congratulations JJ. Bruiser 💪🏼
I love that part. As a kid I always got excited and messed up a lot of fish. To this day I wake up in a cold sweat thinking about them. This guy is great at what he does.
Just goes to show everyone, the bigguns bite in the later morning too! It's always fun to see your excitement Justin, keep 'em coming!
Oh Justin what a beautiful Flathead I love it when a hard-working man or a woman's plan comes together another epic fish brother thanks for sharing the moment with us. Tight lines and Big Cats my brother and much peace and love from northeast Texas 🤠
There's nothing like your chuckle when you land a big one! Congrats man
You’ve turned an avid bass fisherman into an active catfish content viewer
🤣 same!
Happened to me too
Thank gosh, I am not fond of bass fishing 😆. Just top water fishing
Same here 😆
Cat fishing is just like bass fishing, except for men 🤣🤣🤣 j/k
Thanks for your videos, Justin. Though I'll never fish from a kayak, I get to live the thrill of catching those big cats through you!
I love early mornings where everything’s cooking....something about high pressure makes all game/fish really active 👍🏻
The joy you still have catching these fish is awesome!
Love how you use your hands to land these awesome fish! I have friends that use those mechanical grabbers and I feel like it takes the real interaction between man and fish out of the picture. Great fish brother!!
Just subscribed. Realized quickly you have the same exact country accent everyone spoke where I grew up (North Alabama). I shed my accent after moving to a bigger City, but it always makes me happy to hear it still alive and well! Awesome channel my friend!
Did that flathead get the old 👊🏼action!!! Yes sir!!! Just going back and watching older videos!!! Keep dropping lines bud!!!
I love your videos. Just the right ratio of action to commentary. Good luck on your tourney!!
It was so exciting seeing you getting so excited !
Justin, I'm a huge fan!! I watch every video!! Glad to see you catch a beast like that!! Keep up the good work, and thanks for the quality content!!
Are we just gonna ignore the fact that a fish surfaced right behind him during the intro 1:04
Yep he lied!!
FLATHEAD!!!!!! Man what a fish. Nothing like seeing someone get so excited doing what they love! I get just as excited watching lol 👍
Thank you Justin that was one big flat head and also some nice blue's I can tell the excitement in your voice when you hooked that big boy congratulations to you. Keep on fishing and sharing your videos.
It’s good to see you land a genuine Golly Whopper!!!! Great job that’s why I watch your videos to see action like that!!!!
Liking that volunteers hat man. Nothing better than that big orange pride
Congrats! I'm from Minnesota and we love fishing too.
Now that was a Niiiice fish, great job brother, Blessings to you and your family.
I thought for sure that live skipjack was gonna be the one that that TANK of a flathead hit. What a fish Justin! Great video as usual and congrats on that gorgeous fish.
Genuinely enjoy these videos man. Thanks for putting in the extra work to bring us along. Fished bass tournaments as a younger man. Had all my tackle stolen about 10 years ago and I think I've maybe fished 5 times in the period. Having 5 or 6k in tackle stolen really discouraged me. You're giving me ideas.
It good to see you land a genuine Golly Whopper!!!! Great job that’s why I watch your videos to see action like that!!!!
Congrats Justin that was sure a beast. Totally awesome. Thanks for showing.
That was one heck of a fish brother had fun watching you well done glad to see him swim off thanx
Oh my lord. That flat head was brilliant. What a fighter. You were chuffed to bits you could tell. Well done Justin.
[
Good things happen to good people. What a great video. Justin I thank you for getting this old man on the river. The prettiest fish in the river. From the couch in Ohio
My goodness that is a beautiful fish I was on my toes with excitement waiting to see it great catch
Another beautiful flathead man. I love the color on them in that area. Ive always been a die hard live bait guy. Been fishing with some cut these last several weeks and doing real good!
I just never really realized how much flatheads eat cut bait. Not sure if it will continue once the water warms up, but cut has definitely been out fishing live for me lately.
justin watching your videos is the next best thing as being out on the water doing it yourself keep doin what you do thanks i am a big fan
Huge flathead catfish. Definetly a trophy. 🏆
As always, another Catfish Kayak (mostly) of Justin doing what he does best...making folks jealous, and then...BAM a dang ol' Golley Whopper. Yeeeaa Haaawww!!!!!!!
Hold on Justin. Don't let it get the better of ya.🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
The rivers up here in MA are filled with Bullhead and Blue Cats that size - you've inspired me to try and find some!
Justin, The skipjack does it yet again. Nice WHOPPER of a fish!!!! Keep it up!! I enjoy your videos.
That's another top quality Flathead. Awesome catch. Bro keep em coming.
Heck yeah!! Keep it up Justin🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
you know what really gets to me about your vids, don't get me wrong i love the vids, it's the fish jumping behind you as you do your intros
Most Cat fishermen would love to catch the “small” Blues you are getting.
for reals...his small blues are PB for me.
No doubt! After the last 2 years I've had.
Hell...ive never caught a blue or a flathead. Id take his dinks. Id have a heart attack if I caught some of his "fun sizers" and "gollywhoppers"
Yeah average size fir ne is 2 to 3 pounds. there are bigger in the lakes but no boat, an shore access is bad
I agree lol
Should be at 100k subscribers this month. Congratulations!
One of my favorite fishing channels for sure.
Fist pump + “YES!” = beast of a flathead
Enjoyed fishing virtually with you thanks brother! Made my day. Miss fishing. Wonder if the Powell river has anything? Southern VA... Hmm
That Flathead was a pure beauty.
All muscle 💪.
Nice job landing 'er
That's the biggest, prettiest catfish I have ever seen. Congrats. :-)
That big yellow cat was awesome to see!!!! Great video as usual. Bon peche brother!!!!
SO COOL that you catch these big boys and then release them back!!
Enjoy the video mr. Justin man that is one nice flat head really enjoyed watching you catch that fish my friend I would be excited too I'm glad for you take care of yourself your friend Billy Simmons
Living vicariously through you this morning. 🎣 Thank you.
New sub from N. Cali.
Mannnnn what a GREAT FLATHEAD YESSSS WE LOVE OUR FLATHEADS ! DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS BUT THE CATCH A MONSTER WITH BIG MOUTH IS THE ATTRACTION ! GREAT JOB DUDE
Congratulations on another giant Flathead!!! I hope you catch many more!!!
Back in the day, my stepdad and I would have loved to catch some of those throwbacks of yours. They would have been awesome to fry up for dinner. But that flat head...you caught grampa!!! Beautiful catch!
Leave the bigguns for breeding. They clearly have the strong genetics.
"just a small blue cat" (pulls out a 10 pounder) 😂 this video was great! i just caught a 10 pound channel cat on a hot dog today and it was an awesome catch
10 lb channel is nice! 12 lb is my pb

Whooooo Hooooo!!! Nice Justin. I'm heading out this mornin. Local pond 1,2,3 pounders. But I'm OUT and that's all that matters!
I am a kayak fisherman. I will retire in June and will be doing a lot of catfish in and carp fishing. My bucket list is a 20 lb cat and carp. Thanks for all your tips
Waaaayyy too cool bro!!! Man I'm about to have a heart attack watching you punish these monsters!!! Two thumbs up, five stars and a jig for good measure!!!
Noodling season is right around the corner!! Cant wait to get me some like that but with my hands!!:)
Fish were loving the bluegills today! Small fish but a bunch of them!
Outstanding Flathead! Congrats!

Justin buddy that was a awesome flathead bro love watching your videos pal
Great flathead on rod & real great video JJ👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🔥
Great video!! Watched it from beginning to end. Congrats!!
Beautiful big flathead! Way to go Justin!!!
Thanks for posting this Justin, saw this today and decided to go out and catfish because of it. Caught a 70-80 pound blue, idk she maxed out my scales lol.
Beautiful flat head, keep up the videos
Nice catch man. Love watching and learning brother!
Monster.... congrats on that. Unfortunately we don't have fish like that here in Sacramento anymore. So many people take any and everything they catch. Awesome fish all day. Would give anything to fish like that. Keep it up man.
Heck i was stoked for you man that was a beauty of a flathead there now
I know you don't use bluegill all that much but that stretch of the river all we use is bluegill and do fantastic and some quality fish up to 60lb. Can catch all the bluegill you want off of that rock wall . 1 to 2 foot deep as close as can get to the wall with beemoth and small crawlers. All the bait you want to catch ! Good luck and keep em coming!👍
Thank you for another great time
I love when start one of your videos and see the bump board out!
Now that’s a huge flathead catfish! Congratulations!
Wow! What a BEAST! Worth the wait! Whoo hoo!!!
Another great video brother keepem coming!!!
So excited to be coming down to Watts Bar next weekend.....great flattie Justin.
Another great fishing trip... congrats to you man
Those ranch seeds are the ish. I always keep a bag n my tackle box. I throw a golfball sized amount n my cheek and eat em till my tongue and cheeks are raw.
That's a beast my friend!! Congratulations!!
Thumb's Up Justin !!! Man What A Catch !!! Love Your Show Love Your Channel !!!
Wow! A monster from the deep! Congratulations.
Gotta love them flatheads so prehistoric monster looking
What a beauty! U da man Justin.
Oh Justin what a awesome Flathead that was beautiful absolutely beautiful
Love watching you. Learned a bunch from watching you last year. Caught 2 flathead over 25lb and a bunch smaller. Nice flathead.
Cut bait typically puts scent of blood in water and attracts them. Cut dried outside of beef blood works well as well because slowly puts blood scent in water. Chicken liver wrapped in cheese cloth also works well but usually for smaller cats.
My favorite fish of all, I like them all but the Flathead is king! To me! Daggone straight Justin, real nice Flathead! Man, it’s been a few years since I’ve caught one that size! 👊🏻👊🏻🤘✌🏻
You ever think... you're catching the same catfish? Love your channel by the way.
Really nice flathead Justin. I noticed you put your glove on for that one. That has been a productive spot.
Love it Justin. Thanks for another great video. BTW, I just got some BACON flavored sunflower seeds from 7-eleven and they are THE BEST!!! You gotta try them
