    I use to catch skipjack at a power plant near me that weighed over 3 pounds. I didn't know I caught a possible worlds record. I caught a Drum over 50 pounds too. They're thousands of fish of all types there. One guy even caught a Piranha.

    Cool video. I am so torn between using frozen bait and fresh caught. I catch mainly gizzard shad. I get them on ice as you do, and within minutes dry and vacuum seal then immediately freeze. I am lucky to live on a lake with a good amount of Shad and I simply walk from the dock to my shed where I seal and freeze them.

    Hagen I am very close to lock and damn number 2 Lockport. I have showed multiple friends you're videos we are impressed. I don't big catfish much just channels but I have a great buddy that you would like that is wanting to buy some skipjack off of you . He would really appreciate this and would spend some money or even if he could get 50$ worth. We could drive to meet you wherever . You never have mentioned selling bait but being you are so close and these are so easy for you to catch than us noobs we figured we would ask lol!

      I would gladly help you out but unfortunately I don’t have a bait dealers license. But I have already started seeing some skipjack in the Kentucky river. It’s normally an early morning only bite on the Kentucky. As soon as the water clears some it should be on. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching👍
