    Thank you for the new technique and a great video some nice catfish 🤟

      Thanks man, the technique will work anywhere there are catfish as long as they’re biting. You may need to adjust it a little bit, possibly turn it into a Santee Cooper or put a demon dragon on sometimes. Good luck🦾

    Greetings James,
    Hagan sent me your way I already subscribe and I'm going to share you with my fishing partners.We live over here in Northeast Texas we don't have those monster Rivers like you boys do but I still would like to try some of that from the bank. God bless you and your family and tight lines and big fish and much peace and love from northeast Texas 🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

      Thank you very much Roger I truly appreciate the kind words, Mr. Grubbs is a outstanding person besides angler. Just remember while doing that on the bank you may have to adjust your weight and sometimes the river they just move too fast and you got a wait for a day when it’s a little calmer, demon dragons really do a number on them also with this method. Just a little tip I actually put the hook right on the rear clip I don’t separate it with a leader like everyone else. When the fish are real active I noticed they were smashing the demon dragon and not even getting the bait ha ha

      Trust me I understand, I wouldn’t have it either if I didn’t have this UA-cam channel. Media stuff can be draining at times. I just enjoy fishing and sharing my experience. Be nice some day for it to take off enough to where I don’t need to post videos on fb and other stuff to get engagement

      Well, some places like around the dams are really good and can’t have a boat up in there. Sometimes I might just wanna fish a few hours or sometimes I just wanna have a nice fire on a night trip. thanks for watching
