My buddy and I were fishing big water for Lake Trout and he always said if he got a 30# it was going on his wall. I landed a 31 pounder for him and said, "There you go Paul, there's your wall hanger". He looks at me as he's releasing it and say's, "Nope. I want a 40". RIP Paul. I hope you are catching all the monsters! Very Nice Cat Nick! Congratulations on shattering your personal best.
Nick... I came back to watch again just because your joy is so palpable. This time I caught your reference to Jeremy of "River Monsters." (Yep. I'm that slow. 😂) So... Sometime, please, tell us how long it took to reel in such a fish, or give us the raw footage? I love the fact that you let us see you trip and fall. Your transparent "nerd-dom" is part of the charm of your channel. We can't all be as perfect as Deer Meat for Dinner, but we can all strive to be as happy as you are when you're on the hunt for your next PB.
2 years ago I got a 47 pound fathead catfish. Every one said why not lie and call it a 50.. I said nope ill get my 50 last year got a 55 pounder.. all off the bank.
Congratulations on breaking your PB twice in one trip! It is a thrill to catch those big ones. I have been privileged to catch them that big. It is a hoot. Again, nice going.
Nick, your patience has paid off big time. You fall over things , make us laugh at your mishaps, but you always seem super enthusiastic. Keep in fishing M8.
Nick I am over here in North Carolina, at 2:54am, hollering for you and your PBs. Heck yes brother!! Yank 'em up! Also, Ultralight has become my favorite way to fish in recent years. I have landed a couple dozen Blue/Channel Catfish on it. With 4lb test line no less. Keep on hustlin the fish. I am so unbelievably happy for you, Nick. Would have given you the biggest of high fives.
Catfish are monsters. Few years back a buddy of mine brought in a 63lb flat head! They are extraordinarily strong. Congrats on an insane day of fishing!
Absolutely amazing content! Congratulations on the two monsters!! Your attitude and enthusiasm in your videos is contagious!! My boys and I were on the edge of the couch watching! I knew this was gonna be a good one!
Congrats Nick. Been following you for over 2 years now and always cheering for you to hook into a monster. Glad you finally did and twice in the same day 👍. When you said "Mystery Bait" we all knew it was Silver Carp. You have caught enough silver carp for a lifetime of cut bait. Congrats again and Rock on Nick 🤘😎
Congrats, well deserved catches of a lifetime! Those were earned! So many people congratulating Nick is also fantastic to witness- Nick is such a positive guy that brings that same energy from people watching. I'm happy for Nick!
Holy cats Nick!!! I feel privileged to witness your triumph! What a great day of fishing you had. Congrats on your new PB. Well done! See ya later buddy.
Congratulations! Once that river grabs you it is impossible to let go of it. If you are bored you should go down by the bridge that is under construction and catch some sturgeon.
Dude, I've been watching you for a few years now, and words can not express how stoked I am for you. So stinking awesome. Congratulations, bro. What an awesome experience that must have been.
I've been watching you for a few years. You inspired me to learn new techniques to catch more fish. From baits, knots, drag, line, poles and reels. ***Congratulations on your new dream catch and Personal Best!*** I understand the pain of setting and netting alone.
Congrats! My PB smallie bit RIGHT before a rippin' thunderstorm complete with hail and flash flooding...and I had sought shelter on the far side of the creek!
Ok buddy, i think you have earned the moniker of “Master Baiter”. In a world of fly fishing elitists and shrapnel throwing lure lovers, you truly have shown perseverance in the face of adversity. You must come up with some “master baiter” merch
the best thing is there is room to go bigger !!! One day I want to see you land an over 100 lb. Kitty , a 150 lb. Gator Gar and a 400 lb. Sturgeon !!! My largest fresh water catch is a 43 .6 lb. Striper out of the Etowah River between Cartersville , Ga. and Rome , Ga while fishing for Kitties and chicken livers for bait .I never expected that !! I have also caught a 5 ft 9 in. Alligator in the St. Johns River using live bream and heavy Kitty equipment ! It was around 2 am in the morning while we were vacationing on a houseboat for a week . Everyone but me had gone to bed , so I ended up hog tying it for proof . Without it , no one would have believed me !! I'll be watching when your next P.B. is caught !!
Congratulations Nick! Nobody and I mean NOBODY deserves it more than you! Best fishing channel on you tube! And not just the best “fishing” channel. You are the only fishing channel I watch but you are at the top of my list of favorites!
Big CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You have earned every awesome moment like this Nick!!!! I saw a 50 pound blue cat pulled out of the water once down at a pay lake in Southern Ohio and it looked like a dog was thrashing around in the water! I’m so glad you got to experience that out in the wild!!!
Congratulations, Nick!!!! I'm so happy to see you catch your new PB!! I've been watching you for a couple of years and have never been so happy for you!! Again, congratulations!!!!
There's nothing better than when a fisherman is truly excited about his catch. As many videos and fishing trips that you've been on it's hard to believe you haven't caught one of these before. I'm so happy for you. I love your videos because it's really an adventure that you give us. Your PB goes up by 16 lbs and again by 13 lbs more in the same trip. Congrats!
Those were 2 massive Blue Cats caught on the 'ol Ugly Stick/ Abu Garcia combo. You should have kept one, filleted it up for a BBQ with friends. Little salt, pepper, paprika, deep fry, and some lemon squeeze. My barber was showing me monster Northern Pike him and his buddy were catching a couple springs ago. Can't reveal the location, but it is remote and the fish were over 50 inches.
That smile is what I’m in search of this year. Congrats on your amazing catches and new PB. Thank you for putting your content out for the people that can’t get out fishing as much as they would like. Tight lines my friend 🎣
"Epic Indeed" !!! Been watch'n for a few years now and waiting to see if you'd achieve, and you did, not once but twice, and on the same day !!! That was fun to watch and enjoy with you !!!
Great job, funny how people looked down on catfish years ago and now when they see the potential for huge fish that are tuff to land by yourself it becomes a hunting experience. I know you won’t settle for 50 and you’re already planning to best that mark. Keep us updated
Great catch!!! I used to jug fish my local lakes. Biggest I've ever caught was a 60 lb flathead. Used just a canoe and a paddle to chase down an angry monster attached to a jug. Jug fishing and limb lines seem to be the best method I know to catch big fish. Never got a monster using a rod and reel... Gratz man!!!
I used to fish in my own small way. Lifes circumstances have messed that up. I have been watching your videos and must say I truly Love them. All types of fish, methods and such. Plus, you are so engaging and the videos, with the music and drone shots are great. Congratulations and if I can't have fun anymore, Its great to live through your fishing. Thank you so much
When your having a bad day at work, just watch a few minutes of 618 Fishing and your whole day is better! So much fun to watch, your excitement and fun attitude just brightens my day.
Proud of you Nick! Been following you since the beginning. Been waiting for this day for a long time. Do you know how long I’ve been watching you say big fish and it turns out to be like 7 pounds? This is the one I have been waiting for! I think I’m as happy as you are. Congratulations on a job well done!
Man, oh man! What amazing fish! I'm so happy for you - if anyone deserves to catch them, you do! You have so much passion and love for fishing and the fish, and are always so upbeat. Congratulations!
Man congratulations my guy. So glad you were able to get both of them to the bank.. I haven’t watched you in a long time and forgot how entertaining your videos really are.. Once again congrats on the 2 monsters,wow…
This video was amazing! Love that you got yourself a MONSTER Catfish, Nick! Love watching your videos always so whole and I love rooting for you and waiting with anticipation hoping you catch a MONSTER! What an amazing day of fishing and so glad I could see and be a part of this!
Congratulations Nick!! Your outlook on catching fish will change after holding a 40Lb+ fish in your hands that you landed. It did for me and that's all I target now. Sturgeon, Flatheads, Bike Pike and Musky. Again, Congratulations 💪💪💪
My buddy and I were fishing big water for Lake Trout and he always said if he got a 30# it was going on his wall. I landed a 31 pounder for him and said, "There you go Paul, there's your wall hanger". He looks at me as he's releasing it and say's, "Nope. I want a 40". RIP Paul.

Great work Nick 👏 awesome fish bud go get em !!!! Tightlines buddy
Sorry for the loss of your friend
Nice fish Nick! Hey try using Marshmallows next time! It may surprise you!
@@bjm1682 Thanks. He was only 68. I thought we had lots of fishing time left.
@@Z-Bart Fish every day like it's your last my brother 👍
Nick... I came back to watch again just because your joy is so palpable.
This time I caught your reference to Jeremy of "River Monsters." (Yep. I'm that slow. 😂)
So...
Sometime, please, tell us how long it took to reel in such a fish, or give us the raw footage?

50 pounder!!!! Truly for most fishermen a catch of a lifetime.
Especially from the bank.
2 years ago I got a 47 pound fathead catfish. Every one said why not lie and call it a 50.. I said nope ill get my 50 last year got a 55 pounder.. all off the bank.
@@michaelmelson6678wow
39lbs
He finally caught some giants. I know he’s been working hard for it
Congratulations on breaking your PB twice in one trip! It is a thrill to catch those big ones. I have been privileged to catch them that big. It is a hoot. Again, nice going.
We're gonna need a bigger net! So happy for you, Nick!
Nick, your patience has paid off big time.
You fall over things , make us laugh at your mishaps, but you always seem super enthusiastic.
Keep in fishing M8.
I think maybe that spillway..is the New Favorite Spot!? Right?!
It has to be. Anywhere a 52 pounder is landed has to be a favorite, if not THE favorite spot. ✌🏾
Great catch, Nick!!! And yet another great vid!
I was thinking that same thing lol
I would be surprised if he doesn't do three or four videos from that exact same spot... Go for it Nick I could never get tired of seeing that buddy!
Two beautiful fish! Congrats!
Pure happiness right there, if you don’t fish you will never understand that feeling, im so happy for you Nick congrats!

Those two catfish got your heart to pumping. Great day on the water. Congratulations.
Have been watching for about 3 years now. Enjoy Thursday with the new vid. This pb is well deserved. Well done Nick!
That run to the big fish pole was classic! Love it
Awesome all around!!! Thanks for takin us with ya.
Really well done Nick, congratulations! Could hear the pure joy in your voice when you got those two big cats in. Epic
Great day in the morning today was your day for sure. Congrats on an awesome day of fishing Nick!!!!

When you said "Mystery Bait" we all knew it was Silver Carp. You have caught enough silver carp for a lifetime of cut bait. Congrats again and Rock on Nick 🤘😎
That awesome big fish's proud of you Nick 618
That storm was likely the reason that those big fish were stirred up and feeding. That was a good time to be there. Congrats!
Congrats, well deserved catches of a lifetime! Those were earned! So many people congratulating Nick is also fantastic to witness- Nick is such a positive guy that brings that same energy from people watching. I'm happy for Nick!
Super happy for you Nick. Been watching the channel for about 3 years now. Really enjoy the content.

I am so glad we got to witness your PB..thank you Nick for the many years of one great fishing adventure.
Been watching for years…… Very happy for you. Watching you ditch your rig when the big rod went off; priceless. Congratulations.
Your excitement is so genuine. Congratulations Nick !!!! Big Thumbs Up 👍
Been watching you for a few years now, exciting to see you hook up on an absolutely beautiful giant! Congrats!
“This Is The Fish! This Is The Fish! This Is The Fish!” Congratulations Nick. All The Best from Scotland 🏴🇺🇸
Dude, I've been watching you for a few years now, and words can not express how stoked I am for you. So stinking awesome. Congratulations, bro. What an awesome experience that must have been.
