I remember when a 60lb catfish was a rarity. Today's massive fish of every species is a testament to the best management in the world. And sportfishers created that.
Bro there's hundreds of 100 lbs in that River take your boat out sometime and just drive over them and see they seen that thing from their livescope they knew it was there and they drove past those all the time it's just a matter of when they want to bite or not they're very picky and they eat big
that is one hell of a fish, very nice work, congratulations. definitely cold beer worthy once you get safely home. thank goodness for todays smartphones, you pull this off back in the day and no matter what you say 3/4 of the people would say you are full of stinkbait. nice dang work fellas something to certainly be proud of
Awesome fish! Whenever I think my bait may be too big, I remember there are catfish swimming down there that could fit a human head inside of their mouths!
Ummm... You do know that catfish can breath out of water, right? Funny thing my cousin did when I was younger was to leave one on the lawn overnight when we were kids. As long as there was enough dew to keep it damp enough it would live. Sure enough, next morning it was alive and well.
Amazing catch! Can you share where/what brand is the bag you used to safely weight the fish in? I've been after big catfish and gar lately and I desperately need one of those. Thank you!
Absolutely awesome catch!!!! I hit the thumbs up and Subscribed to your channel!! I catfish as well, haven't done a video in a while due to a long and expensive divorce. But I'm on the hunt for a new boat considering it had to go when the divorce was happening. I like your set up, what kind of boat do you have? Great video!!! Keep em coming!!!
Hey DoubleC!! It's been a few years since my prison release (marriage) was finalized and over. It's the financial rebound. But that's about to change, unfortunately I lost my father 2 years ago and after all of the BS I went through over his estate with people who wasn't even related to my father, I will be receiving a check for enough to get me and my boys a nice boat. Me and the boys were watching your video, and my 16-year-old said... That's the boat we need dad... I couldn't agree more I said. So I messaged you lol Thanks for the reply and good luck in your future monster slaying!!! I live in KY, and once I find that right boat, I might have to visit and try my luck catching a toad!!! Be safe me friend!!!
Im a boat captain on the Mississippi River in South Louisiana and on slow nights i would go tie up to the dock at a grain elevator when the unloading grain from a ship and ill catfish and catch 100 plus pound catfish all night long
Lol oh man that was funny. I'm guessing he was in the process of releasing line and though he flipped the bail and thumb set the hook then let a bunch of line out. Lol awesome fellas
You should have got that fish back in the water a lot quicker than what you did that's hard on a big fish like that to stay out of water for that long but it's a good fish
That hook-set is going down in history 🤣
A little luck never hurts when fishing! Everything else must have been just right. Fish of a lifetime for most of us.

Not impossible
Sarcasm at its Best. Great Catch!
I hope it lived being out of the water so long

Pickwick

As long as the fish was out of water and the way he was released its very unlikely it lived.. truly sad such a big fish and breeder 😢

I had no idea catfish can breathe out of water!

what bait did you catch it on ?
What a catch

Daaaaamn what a cat
What kind of bait used an setup
Larry, Daryl, and Daryl! 🤪
... AWESOME!!!!!
What size main line? Leader line? Hook size and bait?
Really enjoyed the video.
Congratulations!!!!
Sub'ed with a bell.
Jeff
I don’t know what they were using but I caught my 99.2 on 60 main and 25 leader
Holy (mini) cow !!
You Tell DeWalt they need to pay the man!
A 16 minute video that took me 30 minutes to watch 'cause I kept rewinding the first 20 seconds 😆
What rod and reel you using?
Okuma SS Komodo, and BnM Bumping Rod
Fish of a lifetime! I was rolling when he ate shit though 🤣
Catfish can stay in a cooler for an hour out of the water and still live!
Only in Parker’s boat does someone fall off a cooler and still land the fish haha
Now THATS A WHOPPER 👍👍😀
hell yeah boyz!
My Whisker Seeker net broke as well.
What was the water temp, Chris?
49-50
Not a temps I would have thought bumping working well
what reel is that?
Okuma Komodo
Big Big Wow!! Out standing.🐳
I'd get that cooler right the hell out of the way!
Hell yea double c
A good ole biggen!
Seems like to me the the one guy said naaaaa it's not a 100lbs. Man he was massively wrong.
looks like watts bar or lower nickajack
This is entirely too long for three grown men to weigh one catfish😢
We let 36/48” go big fish we don’t keep
Love how you spend 5mins while the fish is just sucking air and dying slowing. But take your time
Sorry, but catfish are very hardy fish and no harm came to this fish
That fish was in no danger of dying.
Beautiful catch guys unreal wow we don’t have to many like that here in Ohio we do but they are all in pay lakes.
I'll take you fishN cause I don't waNNa GO alone. (8:36 🗨️🐟)
Lol oh man that was funny. I'm guessing he was in the process of releasing line and though he flipped the bail and thumb set the hook then let a bunch of line out. Lol awesome fellas
Is video dark or me? Cant fix it...eeeek
Ah what are you people dumping into the Tennessee river ?
Despite the great catch , Y’all are about the most inept people on a boat that I’ve ever seen. Hehehehe
Oh come on man I know a 4lb bass when I see one 😂
It'll probably go 18 lol
Filet and Release
That wasn’t a lean back that was a fall back lol lil😂
That was not over 100 lbs 😂😂
You should have got that fish back in the water a lot quicker than what you did that's hard on a big fish like that to stay out of water for that long but it's a good fish
Now y'all better be careful handling that monster on camera i know at least one of ya are collecting a check for "back issues"😅😅😅😅
I wish I was, lol
@@doubleccatfishing lol same. All.my injuries have been deemed "not work related" yet they are all caused by repetitive movements... 😂
Always frustrating when curly Larry and Moe make anglers seem stupid
That's the son to the one catfish kayak threw back Justin told me
The three stooges go fishing
