@@Luke-xj6fo oh shit! i got a cute one (from Virginia). i really hate to hurt them but once they bite they are screwed... i tried hard and spend time watching over them. i guess we could always do some turtle soup
@@myronward203heep heads and drums actually put up a decent fight. I caught a near 70lb black drum off a pier night fishing off a pier. I caught small croaker I just left it how it hooked itself and threw it back out. I didn't think monsters like that came that close inshore. I could have stuck my foot in this things mouth.
Knew of a rumor that a guy caught a 78lb catfish on, none other than, a hot dog. Not sure whether believe it, but with how much catfish seem to think that those little processed meat tubes are candy.... I'm not saying it's not true. 🤷🏼♀️
Chicken gizzards work better mainly because they actually stay on the hook just get some liver use the liver as chum put the gizzards in the tub of blood and you’ll have a stringer full of fish in no time
They make good flathead bait but they're fucking vicious they bite so hard. I stick my hands in flathead and blue cat mouths all day but never a bullhead.
This is a recipe I swear by. Take a hotdog, the shittier brand the better. Get you some red kool aid, some garlic powder and a freezer bag. Empty the hotdogs into the freezer bag, juice and all. Then mix in some of that red kool aid and your garlic powder and maybe even some salt too. Catfish are attracted to sweet and savory/salty smells and they LOVE that stuff. I always have great luck with it
I jug fish a lot and have always had great luck with Bar S brand hotdogs on a #5 circle hook. I'll swear by it. I caught channels anywhere from little fiddler size up to 12 pounds. I dont do anything with the hotdog except cut it about 3/4" long and hook it. I might give that recipe a try though and see how well it works. Always interested in catching more fish😉
That’s definitely the most easy way I’ve ever caught catfish and super old ponds in pasture fields or the little tiny ones tagged in the nooks and crannies in tree Lines or Smallwood lights Always kitchen at least little yellow bellies or Mudcats whatever you call them and they’re super good eating and really good to stock other pounds with
Some people say the flathead taste the best, I only tried channel cats, I never caught flathead or blue cats,the bullheads are easy to catch and are small ,but they are fun to catch
No! Stop! Find a large river, or pond catch a small bluegill,hook the bluegill, find brush pile cast and wait for a big catfish to bite. Unless your going for smallies
Depending what type of catfish are on your waters the bait is varied and live bait out at least fresh cut will be needed, but if you don't want to catch your first catfish at all feel free to use hot dogs as they catch bullheads like those here easily!
@@bigfloppa6029 so if I hold a pike the same way I hold a musky does it make it a musky? nope And yes I do hold bullheaded different than catfish because they are much smaller and harder to hold without getting stung Happy fishing my friend.
@@mjmj997respect for replying to them after a year lol, but no seriously bullheads are considered catfish and that’s a fact, sorry my guy though the other guys logic is definitely off.
I love how the beginning of the video was day and then when he actually caught the fish it was pitch black out. I wonder if he waited the hole day just to get one fish for the vid😂
Don’t let the shrimp rot like that. It actually does more damage than good and can kill the fish if it eats it and you release it. Catfish are bottom feeders. That doesn’t mean they like nasty garbage. That means they eat food off the bottom of the body of water they are in. Let the shrimp thaw but not rot. The day you start using Fresh caught baitfish is the day you’ll understand the obsession we have with catfishing.
Of course you gotta be where the fish are that also helps lol. That’s great advice tho man bullheads love hotdogs! Hell all cats do . When you want to target bigger catfish you should try out fresh cut bait, definitely more messy but the reward is something you can talk about for years! Good luck fellow anglers wether you’re catching bluegill or Tarpon, good luck 🫡
@@CurtisOutdoors Hey you got any tips to calm down my fear of getting finned by one? I always catch them but im always scared to hold them because my friend got finned by one once and it was a deeeep cut.
@Mateo Fishes I always grab them wearing a protection glove - you know those ones they use at constructions. Never have I ever been stabbed by them ever since, their fins cannot penetrate
I used to catch them as a kid we called him bullheads or mud cats because that's a pretty good size one they might get twice that size if it's what I'm thinking about

Just confirming those are bullhead... Look at the tail of you can't tell just from the first look. Forked tail = catfish... Not forked = bullhead.

A way to single out catfish is to go fishing at night. Catfish are nocturnal
Thats why you use them for the bait
Use a circle hook.

You can also use leftover chicken in the fridge. It was beautiful.
You know that fajita chicken that's fully cooked you can get from Walmart? Works great too. No Mans Land beef jerky works pretty good too.
I caught a 14lb white catfish from that

same lol
Good thing to know, if the catfish don’t bite where you’re at, the mosquitoes definitely will.
I prefer worms but I Also use slot of hotdogs 100% legit
Did u guys try to use snail?

chicken liver and circle hook are where it's at for big ones
Chicken gizzards work better mainly because they actually stay on the hook just get some liver use the liver as chum put the gizzards in the tub of blood and you’ll have a stringer full of fish in no time
Deer liver work great better than chicken liver rooster liver beef liver pig liver any of that
No live or cut baitfish is where it’s at for the big ones
The liver comes off too often for me personally
Never had a bite on a liver
Yeah the simpest way, but bro got one after wait until night🗿
I'd rather go all day without catching a fish than to catch bullhead
Good for you I guess
They make good flathead bait but they're fucking vicious they bite so hard. I stick my hands in flathead and blue cat mouths all day but never a bullhead.
Yella bellies
Those have to be the smallest catfish I've ever seen. I didn't even know they got that small.
Same
There bull head there diffrent
It’s a bullhead they don’t get that big
@@griffbender bullheads are still catfish. It’s called a bullhead catfish
Bullhead catfish are very small. There are even smaller species in the water in caves, and they are actually kinda cute.
Great advice it’s just hard to find a good stop with catfish
This is literally the only bait I use to catch catfish
I love how he says they bite like crazy but he only shows him catching one several hours later
I caught 17 while filming this. These were the only good shots I got though.
Fishing isnt all about filming what you catch, its about having fun and enjoying your time
Never tried hotdogs for catfish but I've had extremely good luck using sardines because They stink and catfish love the smell

What do you consider a good catfish for eating? Usually when I go catfishing I catch really big ones and always see people eating little ones
I don’t eat catfish too often but I say the bigger ones taste better.
@@CurtisOutdoors Okay thanks. I was wondering because usually I catch pretty good size ones
@@heehooheehaa8350 around 2 to 6 lbs give or take. Smaller ones don't have enough meat and the giant ones are mushy textured.
Channel catfish are the best for eating maybe ones that are like 1 1/2 ft long or 8 pounds

That is where I get the most results when fishing small creeks to large rivers with any fish species.
They won’t always be there but you have a better chance of finding them in there.
