Dave you don't fish to be a utube millionaire, fishing is a big part of your life an like me you enjoy it. You will be a hero in my eyes even if you don't make another video, THANKS DAVE
@@shanester8712 moving in or around the knoxville area. Been there once and just loved it. The people were awesome and I just love the family values of the south. Y'all made me feel right at home when I was there.
Don't you wonder how many tons of catfish this man has released over the years. You are not just a skilled fisherman Dave. You are a Sportsman. And an artist. God Bless you from Purtis Creek Texas
I enjoy your summer/spawn vedios because they are real. It shows what it is like that time of year. You put out ANY video any time of the year and I will watch it because i will learn something every time. Thank you so much for teaching me what it is like different timesbof the year
My son and I really enjoy your videos! We just watched your Catfish Hero video, great job on finding those quality fish on a lake you never been on! Enjoy
I had to work today at the plant. 6 day weeks ever since the Wuhan flu struck. I was having back spasms off and on today. But now I'm at home, drinking a cold one, and watching the Catfish Wizard pull out another tanker flattie!! Life is so good.
Hey Dave our catfish hero. Great call on where to fish as usual. I have enjoyed your videos over & over. Thank you . I have not missed one. I am a fisherman at heart far from you Reno,Nevada. but I'll tell you I want to live in Tennessee.You all are just blessed for fish there. They call me the Fisher King lol I am a no body compared to Cat fish Dave your # 1
Congratulations Catfish Dave on a very successful fishing trip!!! I thought that first flathead was going to drag you and your boat across the lake😂 He was a biggin 😊
I'm a long time subscriber Dave because you're honest. You show us the struggles & successes. When the spawn happened this summer, you showed us the real difficulties. I as a catfisherman myself struggled for over 2 months, but then the bite came back! Thanks for great content brother, because WE never know until WE throw!!💯🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Awesome video Dave love watching you weather you catchem or not. True fishing action allows. I believe that we're do for some more history lessons from you lol..
Just now had a chance to watch your video. Enjoyed it as always. Planning on hitting the bank’s of the Thombigbee here in south Alabama for some fall fishing. Looking forward to the next video.
nobody catches fish all the time, because if they did it would be called catchin. just keep producing them videos dave, because whether you catch fish or not you are always entertaining.
I think we’d make for good fishing partners, but my wife would have to come along. She loves fishing almost as much as I do. Love your videos Dave, keep up the good work- thanks-👍🇺🇸👊💪
The only way to deal with the spawn is to fish right through it. Only takes one monster to come off the nest and make your trip. Can't do that from home. Keep doing what you're doing Dave.
13:48 I am surprised because the two lakes are so different. Melton Hill isn't being drawn down like the other lakes are and is generally a cold cold lake. Parts of Melton Hill can hit 65 degrees in the summertime when Norris is pushing lots of water downstream. Tellico is generally a shallow lake with some VERY deep parts. It also has the Cherokee capital underwater in the upper end.
Get em Dave! Hot Damn! That’s a good deal Dave but you know once you catch decent fish from a place, there’ll be everybody and their brother down there fishing, especially after they see your video! lol! You’ll lose your fishing hole! How many old fishing holes have you lost since you started catching good fish and started your channel? I know there’s probably folks fishing on your old bank fishing spots and wearing them out! Oh well, you got a boat now, right?! Damn! Two real nice flatheads! I love it! Respectable Blues too!
On Chickamauga Lake I talked to a couple fellas fishing near Sequoia Nuke Plant. They said they had one over 70, 2 60s, some 50s and some 40s. I know you got that 82 below the dam, but these were above it Dave. Just wanted to let you know in case you want to make another trip down my way.
Another awesome fishing video. As far as the trolls....anyone who actually does any catfishing knows that when the spawn comes , its time to either get caught up on the honeydo list...or deal with not catching much. I don't care how good of a fisherman you are, when the fish have lockjaw...you can't catch em.
Great job Dave that was truly epic catfishing beautiful fish what's the name of that Banjo Band? I'm sure a lot of us would like to follow them on UA-cam and or purchase some of their music
Good first fish Dave, I'm in the same situation, my bank fishing Honey Holes Have Baerly gave me a bite , to many people saw me on em I only guess , Sooo , It's Gonna Cost Me The Cash , $$$, Buy Another Boat , So I Can float ,like the catfish Heros Dave And The Kayak , lol,,, Bluegrass Music InDa Backgrounds Perfect by da way , that's a heck of a Tabby, or flathead, we call em Tabbys down here south Mississippi, Melton Hill produced you some dang good fish too , the only place I can get cut baits of any kind to work is on a set hook or trot Line , hook and line here in our River pretty much night crawlers if you wanna catch a fish , maybe ,if ya Lucky shrimps will get ya bit but not always, maybe I need to give the cutbaits another Honest effort , after I buy another boat, so I can also float, like a catfish hero lol,,, Always enjoy the videos , kayak had a couple of good ones off a point he was fishing , y'all have a excellent fisheries system , much better than down here as far as fresh water for catfish , Enjoyed it ,
I’m a first time subscriber thanks to my brother in law mr whiskers (billy ray) I’m so dog GON happy he shared your fish slapping show with me ✨👊✨keep on fighting with them little DOGGYS by golly mmmuh hoodley Doodley an grate big wooodogy by golly MMMUH to you good sir 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻#WOOODOGGYMAN
Using your bank technique caught a 104 on Mo. River. Folks listen to this man. Dave,would love to see what you could do on the Missouri-Mississippi confluence!
I recently fell out of a boat and was lucky not to drown. I think it would be in your best to start wearing a PFD. Just saying things happen. Keep on being you, u have a great channel. But safety first.
I don't use large whole skipjack. A monster fish will hit just a head it body piece. It's a waist of bait and decreases your chance if a hook up. Now smaller to medium skipjacks I will use mostly whole but I still cut the tail off .
Dave you don't fish to be a utube millionaire, fishing is a big part of your life an like me you enjoy it. You will be a hero in my eyes even if you don't make another video, THANKS DAVE
I didn’t consider the spawn videos crap, I considered em realistic which very few folks do. I say kudos to you for that.
Nice fishing brother!.👍
I like the banjo music because you don’t have to be watching the video when you hear the banjos you know he has a fish
Never stop the foot stopping music. Not only your video entertain me, but the music makes my day😽
Thank you for all you do man love your channel
Always a joy watching these videos. Movin to Tennessee soon. And gonna fish everyday. Retirement will be so much fun. Maybe see ya out on the water.
What part of Tn are you moving to?
Congrats sir on your retirement. Couldn’t have picked a better state for some freshwater fishing!
I don't know where you're moving from but you're going to love Tennessee. If you're moving east of Nashville you're even luckier. 😉👍🎣
@@shanester8712 knoxville or the surrounding areas of Knoxville. Been there just once and fell in love with the araa. People are so great in TN.

Dave you are the most entertaining fisherman on UA-cam or Facebook. Keep it up brother
Thanks for entertaining us with every video that has a fish in the video.

You are a catfish hero catching those in Tellico Lake. Tellico is a tough lake to catch catfish. Way to go Dave.
Dave you need a dag blasted dog to fish with you.
Priceless! 👍👍 Thanks for keeping it real. God Bless you and yours!
Dave is the man to make my day 👌
Nice job dave like the videos

I learn a lot from your videos come to Taylorsville lake in Spencer county Ky great blue cat lake 97 pounder caught here in the summer
More quality entertainment from catfish Dave. Thanks Dave
The Force is strong at Tellico. It always was. I foresee another trip there in your future.
I say that first flathead busted 35.
Yeah you are a hero Dave some beautiful fish you caught
Made me want a Frito chili pie 😂. Those fish was really clean looking thats a good body of water. Thanks for the video brother Dave.
Damn that flatty was a monster. Nice work!
nobody catches fish all the time, because if they did it would be called catchin. just keep producing them videos dave, because whether you catch fish or not you are always entertaining.
Man that video did not disappoint. Some really fine pulls right there from the "GOAT". Keep landing the big ones Catfish Dave.
Turned out to be a great night of fishing for no catfish! Loved the video Dave!
Nicely done again ! You move around, know your waters. Taught me tons Catfish Dave!👍🎣
Dave you and Justin Johnson are true legends in my book skipjack hard to beat. Be safe and God bless Dave enjoyed

Nice video love the music , ( St Anne's Reel, Cumberland Gap and Rubens Train )Thumbs up from me .
And you have huge following here in Illinois, I fish the Illinois River but don’t do good in the winter for cats, some areas of Michigan are good too.
Thanks for sharing Mr Dave, great content, humor and looking forward to the next video!

On Chickamauga Lake I talked to a couple fellas fishing near Sequoia Nuke Plant. They said they had one over 70, 2 60s, some 50s and some 40s. I know you got that 82 below the dam, but these were above it Dave. Just wanted to let you know in case you want to make another trip down my way.
Dave will go to Tellico to fish and find big flats because he has the knack! Plus thank you Dave for the bluegrass you gave!
Morning dave. Good to see the big ones
This is Reality Catfishing.This is what we call Southern Comfort down here in VOL Country...Getter done Dave...
Another awesome fishing video. As far as the trolls....anyone who actually does any catfishing knows that when the spawn comes , its time to either get caught up on the honeydo list...or deal with not catching much. I don't care how good of a fisherman you are, when the fish have lockjaw...you can't catch em.
That was a good time! Great bite!

Bluegrass Music InDa Backgrounds Perfect by da way , that's a heck of a Tabby, or flathead, we call em Tabbys down here south Mississippi, Melton Hill produced you some dang good fish too , the only place I can get cut baits of any kind to work is on a set hook or trot Line , hook and line here in our River pretty much night crawlers if you wanna catch a fish , maybe ,if ya Lucky shrimps will get ya bit but not always, maybe I need to give the cutbaits another Honest effort , after I buy another boat, so I can also float, like a catfish hero lol,,,
Always enjoy the videos , kayak had a couple of good ones off a point he was fishing , y'all have a excellent fisheries system , much better than down here as far as fresh water for catfish , Enjoyed it ,

Great job ...
You my hero even in the summer time.
No chicken observed. I approve this video.
Using your bank technique caught a 104 on Mo. River. Folks listen to this man. Dave,would love to see what you could do on the Missouri-Mississippi confluence!
Don't listen to the haters! Benn telling the same to Justin. Just keep doing what you're doing man!!
Nice catfish Dave keep up the videos
Nice fish. Good video 👍
I recently fell out of a boat and was lucky not to drown. I think it would be in your best to start wearing a PFD. Just saying things happen. Keep on being you, u have a great channel. But safety first.
Looks like you hit the honey whole!! Yippee
It will happen every year, that's a guarantee, nailed it Dave , that's just the way it works , ,
Good trip Dave
Great video Dave !
Love that music Dave.
Fun to watch. Do you ever use a whole skip jack for bait? Take care be safe.
I don't use large whole skipjack. A monster fish will hit just a head it body piece. It's a waist of bait and decreases your chance if a hook up. Now smaller to medium skipjacks I will use mostly whole but I still cut the tail off .
Nice fishing night Dave
