  • The spring catfish season is upon us and in this week's video, I'll cover my TOP 10 TIPS for catching catfish this spring. If this is your first year learning how to catch catfish or you're a seasoned pro I'll cover tons of great spring catfishing tips to put more catfish on your hook. Spring is a great time to get out and fish for catfish and one of the best times of the year to catch catfish.
    Fishing for catfish in the spring is one of the best times to catch catfish on cut bait. Blue catfish and channel catfish get stacked up thick and bite well. Flathead catfish begin to make moves from the winter and start feeding up before the spawn, you don't even have to use live bait!

      Larry, Im 67 years old, and Have many a fond memory , channel catfishing as a Kid. Wish I would have know the peg float, circle hook , no roll sinker Method.
      My oldest Kid has never caught a Decent size fish ,that would give him a rod bending fight, so I took him to The Grand River ; Grand Haven Michigan, and we had a Blast, just using Night Crawlers on a 5/0 Gamagatsu Circle hook. It makes me feel like a kid again. Blessings and Good Luck to you Fellow Fisherman.

    Great video Chad, if only I had a boat. You should do a video targeting cats from the bank. A lot of us would appreciate it, I know I would. I live in the Dallas area and don't have a lot of options so anything will help.

    • @robertotarinjr3411

      Agreed. I also don’t own a boat maybe one day soon..

      @Hendrix Elisha and what does that have to do with bank fishing? Do they have instructional documentaries on it?

    • @eugenegress5896
      @eugenegress5896 Před rokem +1

      Chuck, Lee from Muskegon MI. here...
      Yeah buddy!!!, Yo can do very well bank fishing for them. Contact you Fish and Game Dept for good Places to go. Also, always use The Chad Ferguson Method of Rigging; Im new to this and slayed the cat fish. Its the peg float, no roll sinker, and I use a 5/0 Gamagatsu Circle hook, winding on a crawler. TIP: After Fishing, remove peg From float, because they sorta strech out the float hole. Just push peg in alittle snug, no need to press in with force. I order No Roll 3 oz Sinkers from ," The Sinker Shed" , a guy out of New York. great Quality. I never get snags with this method. Goid Luck to you!! Go rip some Lips.

    Chad, Thanks for The Great Info. Many Fisherman Look Down their Judgmental nose at People who Fish for Catfish. Ive had more Fun Ketching them; enjoying the fight, than most other Types of Fishing. They have become so obsessed with Technology , and Every Multi Ton Skrim Rods, That They lose The pure simplistic Fun that is fishing is suppose to be. An old Timer, use to take me and my brother ,Channel Cat Fishing at Snake River ,Idaho. Old Andy, would use a piece of kitchen sponge dipped in " Bowkers" Original Stink bait, and we always caught alot of big cats. I Always Dedicate a good share of Fishing Time to Rippin Lips on Mr.Wiskers.

    Bro I catch all bass species, crappie, and catfish. I know for a fact hotdogs and chicken is really good for big catfish and for numbers.
    I am watching this video to get an idea of where these catfish are this time of year.
    I don't have electronics and I bank fish man, sometimes I even kayak fish.

    We do not have shad, our native prey are frogs, bugs, chub minnows, bluegill, bass and crappie. Be awesome to see you learn and teach on places like cave run, Grayson, yatesville, lakes in eastern ky.

  • @LethalInjectionOutdoors

    Awesome video!! Our spring temps have been all over the place this spring so far. I definitely need to try some shallower water to try to get some more consistent action. Did I happen to see a sneak peek of some Whisker Seeker pliers to go with the rest of may my black and orange equipment?

  • @travischristians4835
    @travischristians4835 Před 3 lety +1

    I usually find small coves that is 8ft to 2ft and use my trolling motor to drift in and out of the pockets using drift sinkers I look for high 50 temps to 60'S I usually do real well if I dont catch one I move to the next cove

  • @lil8up607
    @lil8up607 Před 3 lety

    Also asian carp is a great bait if your river systems hold them....i prefer them in the heat of summer over shad..I use shad and skipjack early then use carp species in summer...I fish the Mississippi and Missouri rivers near st louis

    Hey Chad love the vids! What rod holder are you using that holds them vertically? I have a Seaark as well and have to lay my 10 ft jig poles in the floor when not in use. Thanks!

    How do you throw your cast net, your way looks similar to the way I do only quicker

  • @roxannemoser
    @roxannemoser Před 2 lety

    They love shad and mullet. Do you fish for blues or flatheads?

  • @davidwalker6438
    @davidwalker6438 Před 3 lety +2

    I have a small 102 acre lake, and a 62 acre lake, on my property that I fish. There is no shad population, only bluegill. Tons of the bluegill hang out by the dock, in extremely shallow water, but have yet to see any catfish, and only the occasional bass up around the dock. I'm sure there are bluegill out in the deeper water too, do they school like shad? Or, do they just become loners out in the deeper water?

    • @flatbrokeoutdoors8462
      @flatbrokeoutdoors8462 Před 2 lety

      Drop a bluegill off the dock at night, no lights and be quiet and they’ll show up

  • @agustinpedraza3009
    @agustinpedraza3009 Před 3 lety

    I have the whisker seeker baitcast rod freaking awesome I got it paired with an Abu Garcia Catfish special. With 20 pound mono from catfish seeker. But the line becomes tangled when I cast. It creates knots inside the reel. I do get a bird nest at times. Is it because of that? I'm somewhat new to using baitcaster.
