It was pretty sweet. Coolest Pole holder I've ever used 😂

Thanks for watching!! Ive just used the boat ramps in Lawrence, DeSoto and Edwardsville and they are good boat ramps. It depends on your boat if it's a heavy boat that hangs down far in the water you might have a hard time dropping in but, if you have a smaller boat or one that doesn't hang down in the water a couple of feet, you should be fine dropping in. I have dropped in at Kaw Point which is also a good ramp if you want to fish either during the day or over the night on the Kansas closer to the Missouri River. The gate does close at that ramp at 10:00 p.m. Turner Diagonal boat ramp is one that I would say is not safe because there's a lot of interesting things that go on there as well as people's cars that get broken into and things stolen. I have gone to Turner many times but I wouldn't suggest it to people because I know a lot of people that have gotten their windows broken and things stolen. Hope you find this helpful!

I have a 20ft flat bottom can go on 1foot 6 inches of water sometimes shallower. Hard to fish some of the rivers here in Iowa. Do you know the cfm volumes of river I should look for? Thank you

Thanks! We had one of the best trips!! Perfect weather and to have my son with me was the best part.

Thanks Bryan!! We had a lot of fun out there and learned a lot too!!

There was a lot more than fishing going on for sure!! Definitely made some great memories!

@CatfishKC by the way, this is Roy. I kinda attempted to start my own channel lol.

What's up Roy!! Way to go and congrats on the channel!! I'll be watching out for some videos and sub!

@CatfishKC thanks brother. I only have 1 video so far, but I'm headed down to Arkansas this weekend on the Quachita river. Hopefully be able to put a video together.

@785Catfish Good luck on your trip! Be safe

Olen is great at what he does!! And we had the best day and made some really cool memories!! Thanks Eric!

We had so much fun that day! Made so many good memories with my son and had that fun fight at the end. Thanks for commenting and watching!!!

@@CatfishKC great to see ya out there with him! That’s what it’s all about. Putting in as much quality time, preferably outdoors, hands on, will help develop a better man. In my humble opinion.

I couldn't have said it better and I completely agree!! And he got started young and I'm glad he is so in love with the outdoors and mainly fishing!! Thanks

Such a fun day. The weather was perfect and just everything went great. Awesome memories

@@CatfishKCno doubt, what a fish. Youngster dosnt realize what he just helped catch. I’m sure he will soon enough.

He might have been a little tired from seeing all the other fish and that big one was the last thing we did. But he's been talking about it for sure 😂

Jingle Bells Baby!!! But, this is Matt, was it me using the bells? I used to use them years ago. That might have been Nick that was using them.. That's also a very noisy damn where you can't hear yourself think, so we usually wouldn't Rock The bells because I know they're so uncool nowadays, but I can see maybe Nick had a bell or two on because of the rushing Water and it's hard to hear. don't worry we're up to speed on what's cool and the bait clickers are what's in baby!! 💯

I haven't fished Longview very much but, Olen with KC Rodbenders who I went with has really found some of those spots on Longview that produce some big fish. Like you were saying, there are some big flatheads in there and actually he just did a guide there the other night and got a really nice size flathead. I've realized when fishing this area, you can always learn from those around you and that's why I stay humble and actually enjoy listening to people's experiences and learning new things. I appreciate the comment!!

Very true. I used to have glow sticks in my bag but, I really didn't plan on floating any baits haha.. It was a last minute decision but, it definitely would've been nice to get that take down on camera with glow sticks

Man!!! Killer year man. Congrats!! I appreciate the sub and hope you continue to still have an awesome year

Yeah they are a lot easier to catch. This was one of my first times using it as my "main" bait for the night. It seemed to work well or it was a good night they were biting.

Thanks sir!! Much appreciated 👍

I don't get too crazy with specific rigs and I try a couple different ones while I'm fishing. I generally would stick with the Carolina rig with maybe an 8 oz no roll or a 8 oz Bank sinker on a sinker slide. Then a swivel and then a 50 lb+ or more leader. I have started putting on a float just to get bait off the bottom a little bit if possible. I guess that would classify as a Santee Cooper. The 3 way rig is helpful and has helped save me a few times with the weight breaking off instead of the fish, but sometimes in high current the three-way rig seems to get tangled a little bit. so it just depends on what current and also I test out a couple while I'm there. I also like using mono as my main line but I do have braid on one. I use 40 lb mono mainly on my main line. 30 lb is perfect. The other night I was using a Carolina rig with the Gatorade float bottles 😂.. Which I would change if I did it again. Probably would have had the bank sinker not on a slide so it forces the bait to stay at a certain level.. Especially with the larger live baits. Good luck!! I didn't realize how long this message is 😂...

@@CatfishKC i appreciate all the info I read all of it 🤣🤣 I normally fish nice size ponds and big lakes but Im about start going to the Mississippi river I might try the Santee Cooper rig

You should get an award just for reading all that lol. Good luck and yes the Santee Cooper rig is great!! I hear good things about the Mississippi

@@CatfishKC lol I'll take a thick Latina and a sugar cookie for my reward 🤣🤣 and thank you brotha tight lines

@JayTheLipSnatcher 😂 I'm on it haha

Thanks. He was a fun one to reel in for sure

Hey Oklahoma!! I believe the water was around 77 or so. I was so glad when I saw it was a flat!!

Finally the walk to the truck wasn't so sad this time lol. It was a really fun time and thanks... First flatty of 2024

Your awesome man! Appreciate you a lot Roy!

@CatfishKC I appreciate you sir.

Yeah. We still work together, best friends since kids. We still fish together but sometimes we just go out and fish and not film. I was going to film that night and glad I did. He'll be back on for sure

@@CatfishKC gotta be awesome to have a friend like that

We've got each other's back and have been through some things in life together. We call each other out if we need to. But, you and other people that comment or communicate with me , I don't take it lightly. I started this channel number one because I love fishing and Kansas City didn't seem to have a UA-cam long form Channel. The other reason was to get involved and be a blessing to whoever I might be meeting whether on a bank orbat the boat ramp or wherever. I appreciate and truly feel blessed when I get to meet new people because, we only live once and you never know when you can be a blessing in someone else's life. People have definitely been a blessing in my life that I've met through fishing.

@CatfishKC hopefully once life slows down we'll get a chance to meet. Your videos are definitely a blessing in my life man.

It was a good night from how it has been. We didn't catch a crazy amount of fish but they all bit pretty quick. I know Nick left around 4:00 but we didn't get there until 2:00 in the morning. we were running really late that night. Keep it going, and I hope you get on some fish real soon!!!

@CatfishKC my is still valid. If you ever need or want someone to go fishing with you, I'm available. By the thanks again for your help with my bait tank. It's up and running.

Yeah man! It actually helped going back through some things and remembering in case I need to fix anything. But, that style of bait tank has really worked well for me anyway and glad to hear it helped. Life is so crazy right now I can barely get down to the water myself but hopefully in the next couple weeks things will be a little easier. Where have you been Fishing mainly this year?

Mainly olathe and waterworks. Fished a couple of times at shawnee.

I used to fish Water Works and Lake Olathe a lot. I'll let you know when things calm down and see if we can link up

Haha That's what I was saying. I've been waiting for a flathead to bite and finally. But, the first one of the year I can't complain a little over 54 lb and it was kind of a fun way to catch it watching those bottles disappear. I wish I had that on film. Thanks man!

I like meeting people and fishing. My parents are going through a rough time and it's been hard on my year in general and I've barely been able to get out to fish. Hopefully life can slow down in the next couple weeks!!

It was fun and just no pressure. just poles in the water and us talking. Didn't have a lot of fish but they were nice ones

@@CatfishKC can’t beat it!

They pile up in any little corner there. I was keeping them in my bait tank, but any longer than a week in my bait tank, the other fish start having signs of either a stress related disease or something else so I don't want them in my tank anymore. it is infested over there at Cedar

Thanks for watching!! I used to use plastic bottles like that when I was younger. I really wanted it off all the logs.. They make pool noodle floats haha. I pick up trash and put it to use.

I like your guess better lol. It was about 54.50... You have a good eye

Thanks!! For watching..Means a lot.

A 72lb blue so far?

Thanks man. We had fun but plan to get out on the MO to get something a little bigger. Nice just reeling in fish for a change!!

It was fun!! Thanks bro!! Hope you're having a good season!!

It was fun because even though we were going to be going after some monsters, the weather didn't agree and I'm glad because I needed a trip where we had consistent bites and fish being pulled in. He's a great guy and fun to get along with

He really was knowledgeable and fun to go out with. He didn't tell me to say all those nice things about him haha.. But, it's nice sometimes just get out especially when your boat's down and have a good time!

Thanks!

Some guy was nice enough to upload the videos from VHS to UA-cam and I went over those. They were over 45 years old but still worked. It's very detailed and definitely what I needed. I appreciate him putting them up haha!!

Hope you're having a good year!!

Thanks!! I appreciate it!

I understand where you are coming from, but flathead catfish and blue catfish love eating bass, crappie, bluegill, sunfish, carp, Asian carp. Asian carp is actually one of the most popular baits on the river right now to use. I know that some people don't understand or think it might be clickbait, but the reality is, that all of those fish I mentioned are getting eaten by large catfish every single day whether they're on my hook or in the water that they live in. Thanks for the comment and I hope you have a great year of fishing!!

THANKS man!!

Thanks man!

Thanks for that!! Nick did a great job explaining how our tanks work. It's not as easy as some think

I'm not sure if I would do that just because it seems like I'd be playing with an animal on a hook. It might be funny LOL.. But I'm just trying to catch a large monster catfish, and that's the kind of bait they like.

@@CatfishKC ahh ok

This carpet probably should have been replaced. But that's awesome. God Bless

I am not home until tomorrow. If you have Facebook, can you message me on there at catfish kc and I might have an old video or tomorrow when I get home I'll show you exactly what I purchased. Anyway to help.

@@CatfishKC will do. THANK YOU

I sent all the parts in a message to you. I'll talk to you on there and see what other questions I can answer

@@CatfishKC thank you.

Thanks PressureFishingTv!!

I've heard of it but, I'm not 100% sure how the fishing is.

I feel so honored to be receiving this trophy today 😂😂 But yes sometimes you got to get a little muddy. definitely still fun

Thanks man!!
