    I have only fished there one time in the daytime too many boats going through were I toss my lines. I have caught some decent catfish on the other side of the bridges over near the pier by the dog park. You have to a lot of times get there in the daytime to get a spot because there are always freakin crappie fisherman there.
    Right now that big area by the Nautical I guess from what I heard is fenced off and I have heard from others that were kicked out of that area just a few weeks ago. They don't check at night though.

    Great video! We made our first trip to Mendota in 2021 and will be returning this May. Took a bit to get the hang of how the cats in that lake behave, but once we did we caught some nice ones.

      I've caught decent size cats from most all the parks on the lake, they are everywhere in the summer.

    Nice catch homie! Was that caught with cut bait from the drum?

      Yeah, the drum took a lot of effort to cut with scissors though.

      I actually cut up fish at home because in the city I don't carry knives around too many annoying people. So all I have is some scissors and I use to have a razor blade in a little metal sheath but got serrated scissors for cutting my braided line.

    Nice catch and video! I do pretty good at that spot with cut pieces of bluegill or chicken liver. That might help out with the bite next time you visit. Keep up with the hard work and tight lines!

    • @ancientfishing
      @ancientfishing  3 роки тому +1

      I actually tried a small live bluegill for flathead later in the day but nothing bit it. I like Chicken Liver, I mainly don't use it that much because it tends to fall off the hook. The gills there are harder to catch than regular gills.

      @@ancientfishing I have a trick for using liver. I buy a cheap spool of thin sewing thread and use it to wrap my liver with it. Hook your liver and just do multiple wraps around the liver (usually 10-15 wraps). When it's secured enough, with one hand hold on to the the thread firmly and pull the spool of thread. The thread should snap off so no need for cutting. Hope this helps. Good luck, tight lines and stay dry.

    Can you tell me why you are using a spinning reel on a casting rod? Also what in tarnation is a gatto fish? Also that was a snapping turtle.

      I mix and match parts all the time. As long as it catches fish, it doesn’t matter. All I really lose with the spinning reel on a casting rod is some casting distance.

    Your overuse of the term "gato fish" gets a tad stale. Just say'n.

      it's similar to smothering a fire.

      I mostly just use it in place of Catfish since its what I call them. But I understand.
