- In This video I had a couple hours after work to do some channel catfishing. I found a cool new spot under a bridge that was holding some nice fish. I tried my best to explain Current seams in relation to channel catfishing from the bank. Thanks for watching everyone.

This is awesome,thanks for helping me re-live a time from my youth when i lived up there and pretty much got to go fishing whenever i wanted to.i know exactly where this is at and this is so cool to see you catching fish from some of the same spots i grew up fishing,Man i miss living up there,Hope you catch lotsa fish up there.
A chunk of sponge dunked in a jar of blended minnows works real well. Just keep the jar cool or youre in for a treat.
Never heard of that one! Might have to give it a shot some time
@@TheRiverAddict works well for the times you can't easily get suckers
Great action and content. Thanks for sharing. Question, if you don't mind: do you buy your suckers frozen or buy them alive and freeze them?
I purchase them alive and freeze them! Can’t find them all the time, but when I do I take full advantage 😂
@@TheRiverAddict You must get them in MN. I saw them at Cabelas in EGF and thought of doing the same! Thanks
The ending was hilarious,i subbed to the channel,hope that helps u out
Thanks Mike I appreciate the sub and the great stories. Glad I could help you relive some good memories. Hope you have a good weekend!
@@TheRiverAddict The other small town that was near the wild rice river was Called Ada.My gramp probably knew every farmer in Norman County as he did alot of service calls to work on their Tractors an Equipment if they couldnt get it into the Shop in Perely so there were just endless spots we could fish at along both the Red River and The Wild Rice.One of my Aunts lived just outside of Hendrum and Her Husband worked at one of the Sugar Beet plants(cant remember which town it was in)and we would go to their cabin at Upper cormorant lake,it was very good fishing too.i always liked the river bank fishing cause i didnt need to have a boat,plus i could walk across the feild an be on the river bank catching catfish in 5 mins,lol.Cant even remember how many i hauled back to the house an cleaned so my gramma could cook them.Do u ever catch any flatheads out of the Red River,i cant remember ever catching one up there,we have alot of them in the rivers an lakes in the southern,illinois area along with the channel cats and Blue cats.im about 35-40 miles east of St,louis Mo in a small farming town called Highland.I wish our fishing was as good as up there,seems like ever since those asian carp got into all of our rivers down here that its had a adverse effect on our gamefish,we still have pretty decent whitebass and in the spring the walleyes an saugers come up into the kaskaskia river beneath both lake Carlyle and Shelbyville,but i dont think its anywhere near as good as it was back in the 80's and 90's.
@@mikeolson7188 they’re only channel catfish in the red river.
They get so big because they don’t have to compete with other catfish species like the blues or flatheads. I’d really like to try for a flat head or big blue someday though.
@@TheRiverAddict There are some absolute monsters down here,both Blue Catfish and the Flatheads.i watched a guy catch one that weighed in over 60 pounds at a local bait shop below carlyle lake back in the 80's.My biggest Flathead i caught from the kaskaskis river weighed about 30 pounds,and yep,we ate em,but that was many,many yrs ago before the catch and release had gotten very popular.Matter of fact,about everything we caught from the white bass,sauger an Walleye,bluegills,crappie and all catfish were kept and cleaned to feed our family.never kept any Largemouths or ocassional snallmouth from any of the Larger corps of engineer lakes,and we never kept a Musky when we would catch them below Lake Shelbyville, in the winter months the musky can be caught in the tailwaters of a couple of the lakes down here.
awesome video i live in mb and freuently fish the red and assinaboine great videos just founf the channel definatly subbing u deserve so much more man great qaulity vids
That’s super kind of you man. I really appreciate the kind words and support. Good luck out there fishing my friend!
Noproblem but can you make another catfish video soon i really love them but can ypu do a compariosn between goldeye and sucker minnows i catch sucker minnows in my minnow trap in the creek amd put them in my homemade cooler bait tank with airators and i keep them aluve untill i go fishing pretty cool but yes please make lots more cat videos lol i live catfishing
@@MB_angling planning on making a video next weekend, maybe I’ll be able to sneak out after work one of these days this week. Thanks for the video suggestion too, that would be a cool comparison
That would be really awesome thanks check in on the next one for now im gping to watch all the vids tonight
@@TheRiverAddict also another bait optoin is leopard frogs they are working incredibly good right now i the red and assinaboine up here throw a whle leopard on the hook thrue the lips dead with the stomach cut open works great then again if you are comfortable with killing frogs
How's your water levels, mine are low here. But we have gotten some rain, cat are hit an miss right now. I've have more luck with either blood or cheese so far. My grandson hooked a 9.5 pounder. Here like I said we may catch 10 then just dinks next time. You did catch some nice ones. 👍👍
Our levels are pretty average for this time of the year. Lower, but better then it has been prior years. We definitely could use a shot of a rain that’s forsure! Thanks for watching Kevin
do sucker minnows work this time of year in august? going to the forks next weekend found a new sucker minnow trapping spot every morning i have had 20 plus suckers in my trap so just wondering if the cats will bite some sucker minnows or do i need goldeye
The suckers will always work. In my opinion there the best bat to use anytime of year
Ok thanks i appreciate the sub to helps me alot cant wait for the new upload whenever its coming
@@MB_angling Forsure man. Gotta show love for the locals, keep doing your thing.
