What a Beautiful Video Compilation Joe. Thank You.. I was searching once again for footage I saw many , many years ago when I lived in SA Before UA-cam and Social Media even existed about Monster Catfish in the Orange River, but this is great as well.. One Day that footage will surface I hope.. Edit - I just saw you actually uploaded it now. Brilliant watch. Thank you
Awesome video, people don't know about Blouputs and the monster catfish there, i grew up in Kakamas and still live here and have never in my Iife missed a spawning season in Blouputs and witnessed some amazing catfish behaviour, still searching for my record but thanks for the great video.
@@JoesCamera Yes i wish there was a way to stop the locals from taking the small and baby Largemouth Yellowfish, the first and last big one i caught was back in 2010 and it was a 6kg and i know for a fact they were bigger and there was a lot more when i was little so maybe its wrong to blame the locals because its a food source for them but its sad to see the effects 😔
@@rsaboertjie2109 agree we want to launch a conservancy from the falls and see how far down we can go with it. Then we can assist farmers to educate their staff and fishing ethics
Thank you for filming this for us guys bcs i knew a lil bout The GREAT ORANGE RIVER n now i think i know better than i did b4 watching this clip .... keep it up guys . I wish you the best of luck n I'll keep on watching til i die
Wow you are a jack of all trades! Heck those catfish are humongous. Do you ever eat any of the fish you catch or is it always a Catch & Release?? Thank you for sharing this beautiful video, I loved the scenery along the river ❤️
Mooi babers gevang gents, eks van Upington, nou wel in PTA, mis die oranje rivier baie. Lekker vis vang. Ek wil so groot baber vang om te eet, baie lekker en min gratte.
With all due respect to Pete’s Whiskers, are you joking? The Vaal river catfish are like gold fish compared to the orange river cats. When Catfish Joe took me there on 3 different occasions the small ones we were catching were 20 kgs. I guess our biggest mistake was underestimating the size and power of the fish in the Orange. There were occasions that we got takes on 200 kg leader that was smashed. I would highly recommend that you pay Joe to guide you. You will be gobsmacked by what’s out there. Take a penn international 50 visx reel loaded for marlin. My guess would be the catfish win every time. They are huge 60-80 kg minimum. Stop playing in Vereeniging and go to the orange river. For PETES SAKE!
Het jy enige raad om grood babers te vang in damme? Ek het in witbank dam babers gevang op platannas maar die groodste wat ek gekry het was 7.5 kg dis ook die enigste aas wat werk, lewendigge Klein bass werk ook maar vang net Klein babers.
@@JoesCamera Die stuk oewer waar ek bly is naby n sloep wat baie diep is die begin van die sloep het ek gehoor by die bass hengelaars dat hy n drop off het wat val na 25 meter, die vlakste deel van die sloep is 5 meter. Ek het gehoor by mense dat hulle n 40 kg baber in witbank dam gevang het maar weet nie of hy die waarheit praat nie sou nie verstaan hoekom hulle nie so grood sal word nie. Hier is baie klip strukture in die sloep, hier is baie karpe en ek het agter gekom dis die enigste dooie visaas wat hulle sal eet.
@@colossalbasscustombaits5963 so maak dan voerplek met stukkies karp twee dae na mekaar en vang met groot aas en kyk wat byt. Net nie kuikens of duiwe of sulke gemors nie behalwe dat dit onwettig is. Babers kom na karkasse wat in die water le soos krokedille. Jy kan hulle net lok met kos. Ek gebruik tot monster crab boilies . So 40 kg op n slag per dag en vang dan vanndie 4 de dag af. Dink aan wat die babers sal eet. Is die temperature warm genoeg vir hulle om vinnig en groot te word. Ek dink witbank dam word te koud vir 40 kg babers
@@JoesCameraDit sal ook sin maak want hier is ook net Klein vlei kurpers en hulle word nie grood van die koue water nie. Dankie vir die goeie inligting ek sal dit verseker probeer.
@@joelategan I totally agree. But the only way to prove it is to actually catch one .. that's why I'ma take a trip and see how big they get .. fisherman say no one fish's in the deep pools and that it keeps huge catfish.
Nee daar is baie aas op verskillende tye. Van hoender lewertjies wat baie goed is selfs vir groot babers tot karpe. Ons het grotes met groot karpe gevang en ook met moddervis kop wat baie goed is. Tot monstercrab boilies.
The rods they make today is so good you dont need a specific catfish rod. I use my tuna sticks and when casting distances are the order you need the longer ones if you dont have a boat. I have a catrod spare if you want to buy it over

@@JoesCamera regtig, hoekom sê jy so?
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Great Video man! Wanted to know if you catch many big carp in the lower Orange river stretches? Thanks again 👌🏻
we have had great times catching hair rig carp and I think there are much bigger people think .. at the right spots. and thats the challenge

Great video and respectful of the region! Is there an email address or website to which I can make enquiries regarding a fishing trip?

Hi skies om weer te pla,weet jy dalk wat maak die babers in die winter is hulle ooit moontlik om te vang in die winter?
Jip op warm periodes in die winter

Doen navorsing om te sien of die habitat geskik is vir groot babers. Dis wat ek doen voor ek by n olek vang.

Nice video dude ..
How do you make your catfish traces?
Will load video soon as a extra
@@joelategan thanks man. You should check out the river that runs pass kroonstad. The guy's are talking about catfish reaching 40kg and bigger .
@@looklook9474 iv heard that stories too much in my life time . Theres no way catfish will get larger than 30 kilograms there .
@@joelategan I totally agree. But the only way to prove it is to actually catch one .. that's why I'ma take a trip and see how big they get .. fisherman say no one fish's in the deep pools and that it keeps huge catfish.
Wens ek kan so trip saam met jul manne doen. Groete
betaal dan doen jy hom..
@@JoesCamera wat sal so trip kos?
Great video.
Are you a guide for the orange?
Have been the longest raft fishing operator on The lower orange
Sorrie om weer te pla. Is n groot karp die beste aas vir die babers?
Nee daar is baie aas op verskillende tye. Van hoender lewertjies wat baie goed is selfs vir groot babers tot karpe. Ons het grotes met groot karpe gevang en ook met moddervis kop wat baie goed is. Tot monstercrab boilies.
Was that a shimano stradic reel he was using.
So jy moet die diepste gat kry en jou aas daar plaas? Is groot babers naby rapids of in rapids?
Op die skouer van diep gate of obstruksies soos stompe en onderwater grotte of gate of agter groot rotse onder water.
Joe Lategan so as ek by rapids vang dan moet ek my aas net agter n klip plaas in dieperige water?
@@marcusbrandt6743 in die diepste poel n ent agter die rapids op die skouer naby die be
Of strukture wat die diep vloei omrings
Joe Lategan 👍🏼dankie waardeer dit.
Hi. I dont seem to be able to get sny proper catfish rods under 10ft in SA. What rods do you recommend for big cat fish in SA?
The rods they make today is so good you dont need a specific catfish rod. I use my tuna sticks and when casting distances are the order you need the longer ones if you dont have a boat. I have a catrod spare if you want to buy it over
Do you do guided trips to orange river by any chance??🙈
My dream is to catch a real monster catfish/baber
yes we do
