    I scoffed at the idea of putting a pricey trolling motor on my jon boat, but man has it made a huge difference in the number of fish I'm putting in the boat now. You can catch fish drifting with the wind or current, but being able to stay on a set course at a set speed really does make a difference. It was definitely a worthwhile investment.

    “I was about to choke on my own slobber y’all”. Been there, done that. 😂 Love your sense of humor and good ole southern charm. I’m from Mississippi so can relate to you buddy. Love your channel and have watched a lot of your videos. I plan to incorporate some of your tactics this spring and summer on my local lake to see if I can get better results on the channel cats since that is the dominate species.

    I have people say to me regularly.
    How are you catching all these big catfish?
    Then I explain about catching all different kinds of bait!!
    Doing research on the areas that I know that can hold big Flatheads.
    It cost money for tackle!!
    I go through a ton of line because the area's I fish tears up tackle.
    I have learned a ton of awesome ideas and tactics from this channel.
    I have a massive head start on everything when I pick up my Kayak.
    So Glad that guys like you and Catfish Dave put all your ideas and tactics out there for everyone!!

I can't wait for next month to come down there and fish for them. Cut bait just doesn't seem to work like that up here in Iowa for flatheads, they like their live bait. Tight lines Justin!

    Yeah man when they came out with that spot lock feature on trolling motors I wasn't sold until I bought a new Phoenix bass boat and it had one and I gotta say it was ingenious!!! When I'm fishing bass tournaments I'll work my way down ridges or points out in the main lakes and when I catch a fish I'll hit my spot lock just to sit there a little bit and I'd say 90% of the time I'll either catch 1 more or a bunch more. I really don't know how I fought the waves and wind for so long without it.

    Any tips for stock pond catfishing from a bank? I saw a catfish come to the surface the size of me near the bank nearing sundown yesterday and he avoided ALL of my baits for hours. I wear polarized lenses and if ya look into the water just right you can see fish. But that catfish was the biggest fish I've ever seen in person. I have to catch him cause I talked around and found he's been there for years
