    I grew up in southern Iowa on the Mississippi river. We always called bowfin dogfish. I remember catching one as a kid in the mid 70's that was 5 pounds. I was in my dads old boat and was using a Johnson century reel. The bait was this huge grasshopper I hade caught. I was 7 years old. :) Your video made me remember that! thanks!

    My son caught a Bowfin in a lagoon off of Lake Erie in Erie PA that was 39 1/2" and weighed over 29 lbs. Unfortunately, Pa doesn't keep records for this native fish species, yet has records for a freaking carp, which is foriegn and invasive!!

    We found a nice little spillway pool with several different species near Kansas City MO. A few weeks ago there were dozens of some silver color fish trying to swim back up the spillway, and some monster catfish (15 to 20 pounders) swimming there at the mouth of the spillway. it was something to see! This spot seems to have dried up with the cold weather.

    All you need to catch Gar is a piece of nylon rope about 4" to 6" long, tie your line to one end and unravel the tail like a Malibu jig. No hook required, because the Gar's teeth get hung in the strands and he's caught.

      I’m in Virginia and have never seen a bowfin. If I caught that I would have assumed it was an invasive species, snakehead. We never use carp for bait either. We never see small carp. It’s like they miraculously go from egg to several pounds. The best bait around here is shad followed by bluegills and whatever else you catch. The worst thing is that freezing shad, turns them into mush. We catch them with throw nets and depending on the time of year the shad are bigger than your hand or the size of a couple fingers. It’s very interesting. From spring until September the shad are pretty good sized. Then around September the hatch is on for a month. You can cast your net and pull in a hundred shad that are finger size. We keep some of the biggest and throw the rest back. Needless to say, but it’s a little tough to catch big catfish or stripers during this shad hatch. Good luck and continued success.

    @parsonsian 5 років тому +1

    Another great video! Your baitcaster setup is perfect for a rod holder. Set at 45° it works as a system. The bend in the rod, the stretch of the mono,and the circle hook all work together. The hook turns into the corner of the mouth and you don't have to set the hook. Just lift high and reel. I always fail when I try to set a circle hook, but if I leave it alone, it's a very high hookup rate. Those were white crappie by the way. You can tell from the vertical bars. Keep it up, your videos are fun to watch!

  • @danchamberlain3049
    @danchamberlain3049 5 років тому +1

    With regards to your bottom setup for catfish. I think you'd have more hookups if you'd tighten the drag and let the fish hook themselves when they run. I use spring stakes for my cat fishing rigs and when the poll bends over and the line becomes taut, I'm almost certain to have an already hooked cat on the end... I tried lightening the drag to let them run, but had significantly more spit-outs... Just a suggestion.

    I think that some of the time, your actually setting the hook to lightly, which may be the cause of loosing those fish.

    Wisconsin state record bowfin is 13lb 1oz and was 31.6in long caught in 1980 on the willow flowage. They sure are fun to catch especially when you catch a bunch of me like you did. Great video, looked like a fun day..

    Hey man, you should consider using the nylon rope baits for gar. I always keep 5-10 of them on deck for when they’re rolling frequently and the bass bite is slow.

    Congrats on finding a bowfin hotspot!! I'm jealous you live where all these beautiful species of fish live. I'm usually catching pike and walleye lmao

    Just came across your video. Loved it. From the way it looks, your in my hometown. I've fished that spot before and caught alot of bowfin. You definitely need to go back to that spillway! If you go into town, there is a small family owned bait shop that has a bowfin mounted hanging on the wall, caught from the very spot you were fishing. They also have live bait, so you wouldn't have to sacrifice a little bluegill!😂 Keep the videos coming.

    The first Bowfin " dogfish" i caught was when I was nine years old. I was fishing in a drainage lagoon at Lake Huron in Michigan. Those bad boys put up a fight, i caught mine on a cane pole with a night crawler and a bobber.
