This video supports the thesis that 20% of fishermen catch 80% of the fish. You methodically went through lure choices until you found the one that worked. Most would have moved on and plodded along casting the same lure the locals claimed worked. Great video on making the day productive via persistence and experimentation.
I also noted that you finally found a pair of LONG pants to wear. Kudos.
Ya but very kind to share classified info on where to catch fish...lol
That first catfish with the over sized head and white belly was a white catfish 👍🏻
Nice well that’s good to know. I caught my first white and blue cat during this outing 🤙🏻
@@FishAholicTV Not to mention catching your first cold of the year from the rain!
Thanks for stopping in Virginia, we will get you on some Snakeheads next time!
Great way to spend the day.....you got a good life going there
Every time I watch your videos Im amazed by your dedication and effort. Keep up the good work. I love watching your videos.
Lube that pedal drive! 😁👍
That second catfish was gorgeous.
You on my grounds big homie! 👊🏾
Hey, I just subscribed and turned on notifications because I just started to fish and I wanna be like you because your content is amazing keep up the good work🙏👍
Great video. I am very familiar with the spot you were in. Years ago that creek was amazing, always produced a lot a Bass. However the creek suffered two really bad blow tides and the fishing has yet to be the same. I usually go down stream from that location. I pretty much only target Snakehead these days. PB is at 18.6 and was delicious.
Electronics saves the day. Thanks for taking me along.
My man!!!! You are hitting every state on your way back up here..migratory fisherman!!! Love it!!!
Haha yeah that was kinda the plan 🤙🏻
Bro, PPPLLLLLEEEAAASSSEEE keep the snakehead content coming though! Love it! Maryland has some snakehead tournaments coming up. You should do one!
It looks like you was over the house of cat fish 😀 waiting for more vid in NJ and drive safe 👍
nice catch dude a lot of catfish on that spot.
Great stuff keep casting 🎣
I love all your content! I've been trying to emulate all your videos here in south florida. Same bait, same docks..... no luck hahaha I need to learn the flick of your wrist. Maybe you could show a tutorial on how you retrieve your different baits. That would be amazing! Shad, xrap, shrimp... Being a beginner is proving to be difficult!
Ryan Dunbar must be one with the rod!
Thanks man! And sorry to hear. For some of those baits on any given day the fish might want the retrieval different. Alternating the retrieve regularly until you get a bite is the best advice I can give probably. Reel faster, reel slower, try two little jigs then a pause, try one jig etc... the fish will let your know. Never get fixated on one retrieval and you’ll be on the right path. Tight Lines 🤙🏻
@@FishAholicTV the real reason has to be that you just caught all the fish. Thanks man! Keep it up!
Thanks for another awesome upload! Your videos are getting me pumped for my move to Melbourne Florida next week to chase my dreams and hobbies of catching fish and crab trapping and being on the water as much as possible! Quick question for you, How long of a leader line do you typically use and do you keep the knot out of eyes and reel?
Nice! Those cats were hooked perfectly in the mouth. You may have to tie a float to your Boga grip, just in case 🙂
Great video , keep em coming
Haha you never know what to expect in a river system like that! Watching you catch a bunch of catfish is pretty funny! I’ll be really interested to see what you get into up here in NJ/NY, with this weather we just had move in (snow yesterday in Westchester county!).
Yea pretty crazy going from snow on Saturday to 61 and sunny today(Sunday)
Crazy weather 🙄
When he said stripers I almost fainted I was so excited
lol
?
You were close! Cool. I have been fishing the Potomac off Fort Belvoir last couple weekends using various lures. No luck so far. When you drove north on 95 my condo is about a third of a mile away, where 95 intersects with 495. Good luck in NJ.
Heyyy! That’s my neck of the woods lol. I launch there all the time and caught my pb northern snake head last month. Love the vids 👍 keep it up
A difficult day but you had your reward!!!👍🏻🇲🇽👍🏻
Really want to get into fishing this year in VA thanks for sharing
Fresh river catfish nuggets are hard to beat especially those size.
Really, that does sound good 😋
@@FishAholicTV were you actually fishing the Potomac or aquia creek? Trust me you dont want to eat any fish that comes out of that water.
Great episode ! Had high winds heavy snow squalls come through CT yesterday...🙁🎣
That’s a bummer winter just doesn’t want to go away.
The trees are green in your area!! Yeah!!
Hi I really like your videos!!!
Loved the vid
Haven’t heard of too much action here in jersey. Couple smaller bass and bluefish off the surf but nothing giant. Excited to see how you break it down and hopefully learn more !!
Anthony Riello it’s been good for me. Try matching the tides up
You're in my backyard bro! Sweet vid!!
I've caught catfish off top water jerk baits, plastic jigs, lots of live minnows, and had over 20in catfish take large shiners and suckers trolling with planer boards.
Weedless swim jig heaven
1st and 4th cat were white cats - huge head to body ratio and not as deep forked dorsal fin. 2nd and 3rd were blues - straight anal fin with deep forked dorsal. Nice vid bro!
I always mix up whites/blues
Nice video 👍🏼 is good to switch sometimes from the salt water to the freshwater
Nice catfish catch. But hey, I've been meaning to tell you your reel has its retrieve hand on the wrong side! Lol. Thanks for entertaining those of us who aren't able to fish due to stay at home orders. The sheriff deputies are patrolling the river where I fish and road blocking all the regular fishing spots.😥. This Covid 19 is killing my outdoor activities in central California! I need to get out of this state soon!
Great content man
That Catfish you caught in the Potomac with the huge head looked like a Gulper Catfish which I have seen in aquariums.
you can always get on a winter flounder bite in the new jersey rivers especially shark river. gulp has been killing in with small hooks
Nice cat wow lucky!
I'm sure you are in Jersey by now, I've had good luck close to the Verrazano , and good luck with the weather, its been blowing.
Your first and last catfish where "White Catfish" or, according to us locals, White Bullheads. You should have kept them. They're plentiful and probably the best breakfast food you'll ever eat! Fry the fillets in butter, cover with grits, an egg, butter and honey (and a biscuit to clean your plate). Man... that's live'n!
Welcome to the Potomac, where blue cats will eat anything!
Great eating size blues btw
CatBass. Potomac nemesis. Catch a lot of those on the Potomac.
Thanks for the video! The first and fourth catfish were a white catfish(with the fat heads). Second and third was a blue catfish. Someone might have already said but it sounds like you need some marine grade grease on the roller bearings of the lower unit of that 180 drive. I had the same thing so I followed a video and greased it up and it ran smooth and quiet afterward👍🏻👍🏻
What a derpy looking catfish lol
this vid has been excited to get out there tm (going by a bridge). first day seriously freshwater fishing
good catfish man
I fish the Potomac a couple times a week and the blue cats are gonna give you the best fight. They're also in bulk. Fishing near quantico is your best bet for snakehead.
lol nice cats
Nice video. Fair warning... In VA, the law says snakeheads must be terminated immediately and reported by phone.
Nice video I can’t believe I caught more stripers then you this year😂😂.👍
Haha gotta a long season ahead of us still.
I live in san diego. I get to VA a few times a year where my parents live. Pops and I kill the trout every time we cast! Visiting Culpeper in 2 weeks. Got a snake head in a private pond at my pops golf course. Trophy fish for me! Another species checked off of my list.
Cool 🤩
Stop by Virginia Beach, VA next time! We can do some kayak fishing. I got some good spots man. Hell ya.
For sure sounds good 👌🏻
Bald eagle chattering at 11:20... you're lucky he didn't snag your catfish!
Welcome to Potomac! 😂
You should try the Roanoke River in Eastern NC.
im so use to seeing you fish saltwater
i did it,,,,u tha man,...i never seeen any man catch catfish like u on fake bait,,,all thse shows lol,,u showed them huh,,,
Hey man awesome video I’m 17 and would love to fish with you once you get up to jersey
Love your content. What kind of kayak do you have?
Dude. Next time ya in va look me up ill put ya on some smallies on the James!
the Potomac is full of blue cats. I get about 5 a day down there.
Those were probably white catfish. They grow to less than half the size of even channel catfish. Kind of a weird species that ranges along the east coast in brackish to fresh water, more so in fresh. The one with the smaller heads were blue cats.
I’m a Virginia native, every catfish I’ve seen in the Potomac has that mutant looking head since DC is such a nasty place with the pollution. Extremely sad.
Stunk like a toilet when I was kid back in the 1950's and 60's. Better now thank God.
The first caught catfish is called a white catfish and the blue coloration is from the cooler weather...the rest are blue chanel cats if they had black spots then just channel cats
That first cat was some kind of mutant😳Maybe a cross between a flathead and a blue👽
A white bullhead is no mutant. It is, however, the best tasting catfish there is.
What type of kayak do you have, how much was it, and where did you get it. If you don’t have answers it’s ok but thanks for the informative video.😀👍👍
Yo that is a freaking WEIRD looking catfish. You can catch some monstrous blue cats on the Potomac
That’s a white catfish 👍🏼
@Aidan Murray false
Aidan Murray incorrect first one is not a flathead not at all
Cool thanks 🤙🏻
Ant that a bullhead 😂
That's a white cat, Rich!
Still, to catch catfish like that seems unusual but fun. Interesting how they are different species. Plus they pulled decent. The important thing is your skill at finding something on your meter. Lesson for the day. Good stuff dude. SoSoCal
i live near the patomac if you go there with some hotdogs you cancatch some 50 pound blue cats
They all make a grinding (croak) its to bring glass shrimp out of the mud to eat
Does the Hobie not have grease fittings for the peddle drive?
If you go to jersey go to raritan bay that place is on fire right now especially by industries or the creek leading to the Hudson Bay and you would use mojos
What kind of rod is the blue one use it looks awesome
Tsunami carbon sheild
What kind of reel is that, looks amazing?
Should try rudees inlet bud
When are you coming back to Florida for fishing
Never, he belongs to NY, go away.
Lol I’m not sure heard the summer bites can be amazing but not sure flying will be the thing to do this year...
Blue catfish
Hey bro I live really close to where you are fishing. Would love to fish with you while you're up here
Can we see some saltwater fly fishing this summer?
Mantap salam strike from Indonesia Kaltim
Come to coastal VA
What a nice ugly fish :) great fishing
Wow, what's the name of the fish?👍👍👍🤙🤙
you got that same catfish twice
Little guys with big heads were baby blue cats
How would you recommend adding scent to your vudu shrimp
I just put them in my Berkley gulp packages but also the berkley Gulp spray could work to.
why is your drive so squeaky? Love your videos great content.
Why don't you use clips on your line to easily switch between lures and rigs?
What model is your hobie kayak.
What boat is that they are using?
That’s a bald eagle in background at 11:21
