Badass comment 🤘🏻 hope you made it to good ol Tennessee by now
I was a mono guy as well, but I found 1500 yds of reaction tackle braided line last year for about $40. Been using it ever since. I find it's cheaper in the long run. If I broke mono I often had to respool the whole spool, otherwise, I would end up with a big knot in the line. With this stuff I just tie whatever Reaction braid I need to the fill spool and knot is hardly noticeable.
dave you are one of the greatest catfishermen I have ever seen. ive been waching your videos now for about a year and they have helped me increase the size and amout of fish I catch. I just wanted to tell you thanks for the help and time you put in and I will help you how ever I can.
Who's thumbs downing Dave videos ???😤 They must be Dumb Bass Fishermen 😂🤣😂🤣😂
na they just thought this was a dance video is all.. and were disappointed when it was over and there was no dancing..

My house is built out of reaction braid it withstood a class 5 hurricane, a f4 tornado and 3 tsunamis all in the same week. 😁
wow sassy.. sounds like you live in a happenin' place!
I also run reaction braid catch 20lb+ catfish once in a while and has always held up every time I always recommend!
It's good to see that all men our age are not dead set in there ways, may God bless and keep you, tight lines Dave
Finally someone who done a honest review of reaction braid thanks Dave I will give it a shot 👍👍👍 👍
Thanks Dave. I've never used braided line. I'm going to have to try this. Thanks again Dave. I've been telling my buddies here and back home about you. GOD bless you and your channel.
Love it.. Love the music when u catch and I have been bingg watching your videos.. U have inspired me to get back out and fish lobe ur work
Well Mr striped fish Houseman AKA Catfish Dave That was some good news.. I hate the price of braid.. I need it from time to time but don't want to pay that much for it.. now I can get some from your amazon store and be satisfied.. Thanks again for your videos I truly enjoy the heck outta them.. especially that banjo music.. it fits so dang well! Carry on and above all else you be safe out there ya hear!
Placed an order from your link. Thanks Dave
Cool review there Dave! I've been using Reaction braid for over two yrs now. 80# in orange and 65# in yellow. Good line at a great price.
I'll definitely be buying it thru your site from now on.
Thanks for the tip. Nice Morone Saxatilis, fancy word for Striper, looked it up. Don't know why., but nice fish. Awesome channel Catfish Dave.
Hey Dave, the Reaction Braid is some good stuff I use on all my reels , I still use mono around rocks , thank u sir for the video on the Reaction Braid
Great video I don’t ever use braided line but if I ever decide to I will get the same thanks for the info
I use the same line got it off Amazon also it is great cast further than mono and last longer I have had no issues
Thanks Dave I appreciate your sharing your knowledge
Sounds like great line to use, thanks for sharing this info today brother 👍👍
Avet reels are the best. Been fishing them exclusively for years on the west coast, using them for catfishing and striper here in North Carolina.
Thanks for addressing my Carolina rig vs 3 way question.
Hey Catfish Dave just ordered some of that braid you talked about on this video, can’t wait for it to get here.
Thanks
Try the FG knot for connecting the mono top shot to the braid. There's several you tube videos on how to tie it.
The best knot but time consuming in the field especially at night. The likelihood of me breaking off a couple times a night is pretty good. If I were at the beach or in a area where I know I won't snag then that is a great option to have already tied when you get to the spot
I will buy that braided line off of your link mr. Catfish Dave you deserve to make every penny you can make you always bring us the best catfishing videos on UA-cam you are the best in the whole wide world as far as UA-cam videos go you have Charisma you explain everything I enjoy and I love watching every single one of your videos since I discovered your channel on UA-cam and I am and I'm going to say your number one fan hands down Point Blank it is what it is all the way from The Lone Star State Dallas Texas Jose Zaragoza I will buy that line I have a new set up to fishing rods and reel combo and I'm going to order it off of your link I'm going to give me two rolls of that fishing line is 500 yards in a row and I can use that for my big grills that I bought for my fishing rods because I upgraded on the reals but it came as a combo so I will use that and I will help your channel out so that you can reap and benefit also the rewards from your hard work and effort and the time that you put in into every single one of your videos and plus my main reason a one of my main reasons is because you run them people off the shore when they are fishing in their boats and you ask them what are they fishing for and that you have your lines in the water you stick to your guns and you stand your ground and you make them suckers leave you run them off mr. Catfish days and that sir deserves a lot of respect because I do the same damn thing and I'm always packing when I'm fishing on the bank because there's a lot of crazy damn people that I always want to come near you and ask you questions and you don't know who the fuck they are and their intentions one time one guy tried to rob me a busted his ass I kicked his ass I put his damn face in the water I was trying to drown that son-of-a-bitch somehow the game warden was passing by so I what was happening I told her what was happening I had my camera recording because I am trying to do my own videos and it was all on camera I almost got arrested because I was trying to drown the guy but the game warden did not arrest me he did not arrest the other guy because he feel rested the other guy I had to be arrested and I did not have a criminal record I was born and raised in the United States and Texas and that's the only reason that God did not get arrested because then I would have to be arrested because I engaged forward into the combat and when you engage forward according to Texas law at least here in Texas you are no longer self defending yourself you are engaging in to the fight but the game warden did chew that other guy's ass out he saw his face he was badly beat up and he figured out that was good enough he ran them off and I catfishing so I understand and I am real calm cool and Collective just like you are but when they fuck with me and they fuck my fishing I explode real quick my temper is hot but the same time I am a cool and calm guy but when you fuck with me the wrong way I am like dynamite I go boom and I go from being mr. Super duper duper duper really nice guy to really super duper duper duper mean asshole and kick your ass and drown your motherfucking ass if I can drown your ass and get away with it because everything is bigger in Texas the drowned in the ass whooping to fishing and everything else. Only thing that text just came through right now is compete with mr. Catfish Dave at least I can't because I can catch plenty of fishing numbers but I cannot catch them size of catfish that you've been catching lately I catch him every once in awhile but because I do eat my fish I go more for the quantity and my limit versus the big Quality Trophy fish but I do catch 70 80 90 lb catfish I'm not going to lie I catch him every year but I'd rather keep them three Pounders up to 15 lb blue catfish and Appaloosa catfish and that's my go-to fish and that's all I got to say about that that's what Forrest Gump said!! Now let me continue watching your video because I'm only 4 minutes and 10 seconds into your video and your video is 11 minutes and 40 seconds therefore I got 7 minutes and 30 more seconds to watch your video!! Jose Zaragoza signing out
I love braid around wood only. I took your advice on thick mono around rocks and have lost less fish
I have the 9' Longitude, and I love it.
Will definitely check out the reaction braid. I am using Power Pro right now that was left over from my salt water fishing days.
I bought over 2000 yards of Hercules braid for 44 on amazon i love it.
@Catfish Dave thanks for this, I used your affiliate link and just picked up 1000 yard of hi viz for surf fishing's
I always love and like you videos! God bless you always Dave!!!
I've been needed to restring my reels so I ordered 1000yrd spool. Hopefully you will make a dime or two off my order Dave..
I found Jomaster Superpower Braided line on Amazon. $13 for 330 yards.
As a Bass fisherman who uses Braid 99.9% of the time im here to say that Power Pro is a far superior braid.Ive got a 1000 yard spool of the Reaction Tackle 8 strand sitting next to me and its worth its price,thats about it. Ive got reels with Power Pro and Power Pro V2 Slick from 2 years ago. Ive respooled the Reaction twice this year already from frays.
You the man Dave..
Thanks for the information and another great video.
I have 2 carnage 2’s an love em best big fish rod I’ve used
Tha la for the honest review , finally an honest straight forward review
Did Catfish Dave just become an official Pro Staff member of a braid company???? Awesome!!! I would have never bet on him not becoming a Pro-staffer, but I would have lost $257,569 on it being a braided line company! If he gets sponsored by a boat company I will be out of $712,964.00... $1.8 million if it's Sea Ark! Kidding not kidding Dave, I love ya to death..... Dave's in my top 3 youtube guys!!!!! Awesome fisherman, awesome channel, awesome guy!!!!!!!! Ive been a braid guy for 20 years, been waiting on you to come around!!! This only leaves Dieter and Zack Royce as the only 2 respectable catfish guys that still use mono!! They'll come around soon!!
Great info on the braid. Just started using it on 1 pole last year. I agree with everything you have said in your videos comparing the pros and cons of mono vs braid. The one thing i dont like about what I've heard about braid , is that it is not as abrasive resistant as mono. I appreciate the info of the more economical braid. Now, does your amazon link include all purchases? My wife and i periodically buy random things on amazon.
All purcheses
@@catfishdave8192 Excellent!👍Thanks!
I use Reaction Tackle 4x 80lb & it's done me well & I actually just ordered 1500 yards more cost me only $44 😁
Thanks Dave! 😎👍🏼
Dave back in the house!!!😀
Reaction Tackle line is all I use, best cheap line you can get.
Nice video Dave
idk, when im tying on a $50-100 musky lure, i want to straighten out the 5/0 black trident hook if it gets snagged, i want the pounder dawg to not snap my line on a backlash. all the affordable line makes up their price in pic count and quality control. power pro, suffix advance or 832, i trust those. berkley big game braid, my jury is still out on live bait rigs on glass or half glass rods that NEVER touch bottom, didnt fish suckers enough last year to give it a thumbs up or down.
Good to see it’s still a fishin video
I be used reaction tackle braid for cat fishing for a long time.
Thanks Dave, you save me over $100 today!!!!
Di you put the superglue on the line before you pull the knot tight or after you synch it down? Thank you for sharing your wisdom. You make others better fishermen if they listen.
Just a tiny bit after it is sinched down
I just bought a 1500 yd. Spool of 50lb reaction braid, cost me 43 bucks. We'll see how it goes.
So how have you liked the reaction tackle braid after a year of use?
I would use more braid but doesn’t do very good with abrasives. The 4 strand that I use on my poles I use in my boat is ftk . Cheap, stong and casts well . I also us big game braid when I cant get ftk . Cant go wrong with ftk at $2 for 100 yards .
Catfish Dave you’re the man👍👍👍
I ordered line from your link. Don’t spend all that commission in one place:)
If enough people do it I think I'm gonna buy a York peppermint pattie
@@catfishdave8192 enjoy your peppermint pattie! Glad to see you back
Smith lake here in Alabama at the smith lake dam has giant strippers! You jig giant spoons or use drop lines with live bait! They are usually around the thermocline it’s 200 foot of water and they hang out under them bait schools at 60 -80 ish. They show up on the finder real easy too! This is in the summer as well when that water Surface is hot in June! They can be caught trolling live bait and spoons up the lake in the winter it’s 15 feet deep around Houston! The Dam is near Jasper take care may God Bless you! Once you come to smith mountain lake you won’t want to come home! There Giant cats in there as well! On the way home swing through Florence to catch some blues at Wilson dam or wheeler! COME ON!!!
Great vid!!! Ever tried using stripper for catfish bait?
Once..didnt get nothing
Does it tare up/cut into your eyelets being that it’s more coarse?
If you got cheap guides it will eventually ruin the tip guide. The tips are easy to replace and can be found at walmart bass pro etc.
That is where you had the big Thanksgiving fishing day isn't it?
Wow dude great price. Power pro. Been useing 12 years used to get 150 yards 12 dollars. Which yea 300 yards been 18 but yea now alot more so I can't really buy more. O got good deal 12 years ago had got 2 and 4 rolls of 12 pound till 60 pound. And it last along time but used the last of it no the ago and few reels lines been there 2 years some 6 years well I meed to change. So I need new but cheaper and been wanting the yellow that helps you see at night with a light. But 17 for 500 yards. Yes I'll try to order 1 roll and 1 next month. And I use Amazon I do reviews for people. But I've got few channels well there friends now they got links also. But none have line theres are more camping or survival gear. But I'm gonna use your link for the line. Do you have a store list were I can go click and order. You prob said but we'll guess I can go listen again lol. But thanks for the awesome shout out for there line if you like then I deff trust your opinion being your useing. I'll try today of I got enought. Prob need 60 or 50 for my big reels. But thank you for this vidoe and sharing that line. Keep being you bro. God bless
this man can tell what fish he has by the sound of the clicker.... I cant even catch a 1 pound channel...smh
It’s easy once you catch enough.
Try some e6000 glue. You can find it at Dollar general and Walmart.
I just wonder if it will eat up your rod guides being 4 braid?
GreT information and great video my friend
Dave so your think the color of the braid matters?
Not with catfish
Catfish Dave great I just bought some of the reaction 300 yards of 80 lb
Caught a 20 lb flathead no problem with high vis green
Catfish Dave!! For President!!!! 🤘😎🤘 You are the best!!!!!!
Suffix 832 ghost best braid line on the market
I'm running sufix 832 as well. Good stuff.
That's 4 strand line until you get to #120 and up.
I prefer 8 strand Hercules.I used Fireline since it hit the market up until 3 yrs ago when I need to find a cheaper alternative.
How long are your bank rods?
Yeap 80 pounds the is what I have on my reels at the moment!
Thanks for the tip on the braid line. I have been using power pro for several years going to try it. Nice striper Dave.
Those hooks in the description are Chinese knock offs. I'm sure most people don't even know. People do it with Gamakatsu hooks also.
Congrsts on over 17,000 catfish dave fans!!!#Daveknowstackle,#WatchCatfishDave
Is it round or flat I don’t like the stuff that cuts into the wraps on the reel you should of ate that striper
I believe it is a round line. I had no trouble after that striper..the heavier the braid the less likely of digging in. Also run your drag a little looser to keep it from digging in. Braid has no stretch and bad things can happen with a sudden stop. If it don't break the line which will break at a lower poundage compared to mono you can rip the hook out of the fishes mouth. With mono you have give in the stretch. With braid you can give it some give with a softer rod and loosening the drag. My rods are very heavy action so I will run a little looser drag than with mono
What's that old saying?
" you get what you pay for".
And with cheap braid you get sub-par quality control in my experience. Life is too short to skimp on braid. Just my .02
Simple Man. Excellent song 👍🏻 sad as hell.
How is it sad? Its uplifting
Now if someone will sell the demon hooks for less than the cost of a new car
I prefer Gamakatsu but they're a lil more $
Lol wish app braid is 3-5 bucks
And the AD wars start wonder what kind of braid your using, wonder where I can get some. So it begins, Its all about the mighty Dollar
I put a lot of time and money in gas and actually missing out on fishing myself while editing these videos. 80 to 100 miles on my truck per trip and the fuel to do so. It is about the dollar for some because many people are getting ripped off by the stuff they only see on store shelves. I share lots of information including places to fish for guys that don't know. I lose these fishing spots for the most part when I do that. I could just not video and keep all the fish for me. I actually don't catch as many big fish now that I video because I fish everywhere trying to keep the scenery different and the videos interesting. Many a time my check at work is short because I didn't get up in time staying up too late to fish or edit videos. If I can get a little back for all the trouble then I will surely take it. People ask me how they can help. Ask me for hats and shirts and things they can buy from me to help me out. I have been asked for a patreon button so they can just flat out donate. I have not done the patreon thing even though I sure could and make a lot more money than the few cents I will get for selling this line. I am not selling the line to sell something I don't like or believe in. I am selling it because it works great and will save me and a ton of other people money buying it over name brand. I am me on these videos and I am honest on these videos and I am giving people what they are asking for. I feel no guilt, no shame, and I'm gonna fish on and continue to do the same.
really dude? so what if he makes a few bucks making videos.
Hey Im all for people making money on UA-cam I think it should pay you for your time and effort, You need to get back in the saddle and make videos, make money ill watch, but if you cant take constructive or destruction input from viewers its on you. Im going to be upfront if I make comments. Keep pumping them out Dave.
I was one that suggested he put the affiliate links back in the videos, and I feel the majority of his subscribers feel the same way. I'm new to catfishing, and If I'm going to go on Amazon and buy the stuff he suggests, I want him to be able to make a commission. Simple as that. I mean, seriously, you're commenting this on a guy's channel that promotes tackle box style rod holders and Barbie doll demon dragons. He's the antithesis to the guys only in it for the money.
@@chucspe and your point is
where`s my Catfish Dave waffle House link ?
@Robert Phillips Dave`s got a woman, he can`t be talking about them 3rd shift Waffle House babes.

I hate braid. I love catfish Dave.
Hey Dave, do you have an email? I’d like to send you something.
You really don’t need leaders you can use huge singers and huge hooks if your using big line then your line shouldn’t snap
You're such a late bloomer Dave. Good braid doesn't have to be expensive. I predict u converting to braid on all of your poles. lol braids better. I've been using both. Braid can pull through weeds,sticks debre and most covers. U know the pros and cons already.
