Nicks got that big cat fever and I’m so here for it!!!
That cat scratch fever oh he's got it.
Same....I love the enthusiasm ....I just know how hard it is to catch a cat that big from bank lol
Hahhaha I Said the same thing and his likes and viewership shot up by a thousand plus so people want to see the giants
Nick has come along way since the creek and puddle fishing the one thing that hasn't changed is his respect for fish!! way to go buddy☮️
one thing abouut puddle fishing,those fish can be used for bait,or for stocking
I’m glad I’m not the only one who falls down fishing. The triple digit will come. Great video.
Gotta be careful with those falls....a buddy of mine just had a fall on a jetty on the Mississippi and knocked himself out and woke up neck deep in the water....luckily he was on the side where current was pushing him into the jetty and not away from it....he ended up with a couple herniated discs and is currently out of work til he can get it fixed
You’re definitely on the right track for catching a big blue. The tips of those wing dams are excellent places. Big blues love current. Cast baits into the current seam trailing off of the tip. We use a method called a “ swing” rod. Cast your bait directly out into the fast water and quickly drop slack to let it hit bottom. The fast current will “swing” your rig along the bottom until it contacts the main channel ledge. Big cats use these ledges as highways. Can’t wait to see the results. Bon Peche🤘🤘
Nothing like getting off school and watching 618
Or getting off work lol
Nick. Can I pass on some advice regarding your net for landing the fish. Over here in the Europe we use a specialist large fish landing net designed for fish over 50lb 60lb. Mainly used for our mamount sized carp and european wels catfish. I think you should look into sourcing one for your big fish adventures, just so you don't struggle to land the big cats your targeting.
Nick is a true fisherman. After that fall his first worry was whether the fish was still on the line. Lol.
Try to be just a little bit safer though. Those falls feel worse the older we get.
the effort that you put into your videos is incredible. just huge respect to you for the time and thought you put in every damn time. Coupled with the fact you get like a kid in a sweet shop over every bite is just so wholesome and a joy to watch. I have no doubt that soon you will hit that once in a lifetime fish and i cannot wait for it... tight lines Nick.
That location with the bluffs, deep water and small relatively protected covelets just looks like a fish buster! I bet the fishing will pick up when it gets warmer. My 2 cents. Keep after it!!
beautiful creek, the gar was fun, and im glad you let the carp go, big guy earned his freedom!
Miss all the bowfin you use to catch. Your on to monster cats but when I first started watching your channel you would catch a ton of bowfin. Love the channel and all your high quality videos and will continue to watch all your fishing expeditions. Good luck on your 100lb catfish journey
"there's a dead armadillo"
"This spot looks amazing"
Day 2
That string of sentences cracked me up. Sums up my fishing experiences for the most part though 😅
Drums are under rated..they are a really fun fight especially when you hook into a 20lber on an ultralight with an 1/8oz white rooster tail
Some good catches! Sadly the storm shortened your trip but hey you never give up! Thanks for taking us along and hope you’re ok from all those falls you encountered. Have a great weekend and catch you next adventure!
Nick getting bored with just fishing, so he is mixing in some parkour for excitement. 🤣 Here on the Ohio river near the Muskingum river outlet, Skipjack are King for catfish. I think it has to be the "oily" flesh they have. Rock on 🤘😎
Dude, I really could have done without the close up of the spider. Damn. Great video brother. God bless you and yours.
Think that was a grass carp... 😅 and big cats like the dark. And structures.
Yep. Grass carp. Came here to write that but you beat me to it
Hey Nick, you should try parracord tied to your back pack, climb up the slope then pull your pack up. Be safe out there & FISH ON
Nick, triple digit cats are getting real close to records. Love the enthusiasm, and you may be waiting awhile. More content though
The bowfin king is stepping up his game. Right on! This could get really good.
That spider jump scare really got me..😂
From one Nick to another, I can’t wait for the upload and your reaction to landing a triple digit catch! Biggest shovelhead I’ve caught in southern Ohio was 56 pounds. Experience I’ll never forget as a teenager (many moons ago). I need to get back into it but your videos tide me over until I can get a better work schedule!! See ya later, buddy!
I like the new underwater release shot! Great camera work.
I like the music on your videos as well as the great camera work. The fishing is fun too! 🐟
You'll succeed in this challenge. Thanks for the vid, Nick!
It's nice to see you go back to some of the places you started out at
Nick watching you try to run up that hill at the end had me dying. Especially because I know you had to come back for the camera and do it all over again. 😆
Thanks for sharing, good luck on the triple digit and tight lines!
Bad day fishing is always better then any day working!!!
Always love your videos. I know you’re a lone wolf but If you want a big cat you need to do a crossover with River Certified. It would be cool to see you and Spencer. Anyway keep up the good work.
Wow! A huge 100lb Cat! Oh hell yeah Nick!! 😍😍😍😍😍 Cant wait to see this! I hope!!
Your enthusiasm and love of fishing is a joy to watch great channel
Glad I’m not the only one who falls on those rocks lol another awesome video
Love the bloopers at the end 😅
Can't wait to see ya land that triple digit catfish. Always enjoy your videos and look forward to the next.
I see Nick, I click, this is the way
Damn near had a heart attack @ 2:50 that wolf spider is looking gnarly😳
Have a blessed day Nick and I hope you do catch that triple digit catfish and God bless you Nick
Keep trying, you'll get one! Keep the videos coming!
Love the big cat videos. A collab with you and Kayak Catfish would be epic.
Dang, you scare me Nick, when you are walking on those cliff face banks while playing a fish. Be careful, buddy!
great video nick. what a spill you took.
I'm here for the fun bait catches. Killer catches!
When you get that big kitty bite it’s like nothing else 😂
Hi Nick,
You might already know this, but, when "portaging" your long rods through the woods (on bike or on foot), if you carry them backwards, there's less of a chance of breaking off the tips.
Thanks for the vids.
Man i felt that when you fell down
Remember the 1st ever video I watched of you fishing Tony creeks 7 years ago
Nice tattoo Nick! You got the kitty fever dude!
crazy seeing you come to spots ive fished b4. Chain of rocks is where me and my buddy's have fished before but never gotten anything. You keep fisherman in the 618 hungry for that next big fish! Love the videos dude keep em coming!!!!!! 618FISHING FTW
great stuff Nick thanks.
Nate out here doing some Parkour trying to find them fish 😆
I absolutely live for this channel! Waiting for Thursday to roll around! 💕🙏
I love the fish on fish on that never gets old
Keep up the good work dude ! You will get that 100
The bank tumbles are no fun lol but I know your next PB is just around the corner! Stay safe out there Nick!
Great video like always 😊 I'm doing some fishing this weekend
That fall gave me sympathy pains!!! As far as the Santee Rig, I think you want the floats and rattles a few inches in front of your bait and not right up on the hooks? I'm surprised you've never used skipjack? I'd think you'd be able to catch your own somewhere near you? They aren't on my side of the mountains so I've never used them either lol. If you're truly after big cats, I think looking into the Navionics app might be a big help in finding prime waters. Also a few weeks ago I bought one of the Deeper castable sonars. You can use it on your kayak or cast it out with a heavier rod. I bought a cheap Tiger Spinning combo at Walmart and put thirty pound braid on it just for casting the sonar. You can cast it around the area you're at and it'll create a depth map of the area for you, It'll show bottom structure, all that good stuff! It's a really neat little tool an would really help in finding prime spots to fish. They are tons of videos on youtube, a little pricey, but I think it'll be worth my investment for it.
Will we see your expertise on the ocean this year? Just seeing your excitement not knowing what you might pull in will be so good!
Deep water , here we go !
Looks like you've been watching kayak catfish!
New ink looks cool.
Hey Nick, how's it goin brotha! Thanks for taking us along on this fishing adventure! That's particularly what I like to do, just go out, find new places, and take a chance to see what I can catch! Super funny bloopers at the end trying to get up the hill, I must say! Lol. Was wondering a couple things also. What major river was that off of where you were fishing, and the one fish that was a short nose gar, almost looked like a baby alligator gar with its snout. Was it one, or was it just like you said I short nose? Had the teeth and everything! Anyway, bro thanks again, thanks for being part of my family for the last 4 years that I've been on disability. It's getting me super motivated to get out there as soon as I can. God bless in everything!
Praticing patience is going to get you that fish. Look at your quest for the musky.
Hey Nick a little hack for your net. I fish some high docks and low bridges so I bought a cheap Walmart net, popped the end cap off and stuck an old paint roller handle that extends up to 10 feet. Drilled a hole through both and secured it with a bolt and wing nut so it is removable. Fully extended I got 15 feet. Love the vids, tight lines.
Best time to fish is when a storm is rolling in, barometric pressure change .
Out there making outstanding content and bleedin' for the sport!
I absolutely love your channel as wel as my 7yo and 9yo sons. You have encouraged us to try harder at fishing beyond night crawlers as well as knowing what the heck a bowfin was. I hope to see you in future do some northern fishing esp some pike etc. that would be awesome. Love your channel!! Love the music and everything ur awesome
I appreciate you all watching!
Has anyone ever told you that you have the best job ever?!!
Go get him son he’s out there!!
Hey Nick, show us some of the thunderstorm next time, please!
The search continues! We will all be here waiting 💞🥰
Yes its Friday again! Greeting from Amsterdam!
Nice blue on the ultralight
Gotta get more into some fresh water cats! 🤙🏼 nice catch! 👍🏼🎣
Great video nick! Keep up the great work
I've been watching you for a few years now and as I live in the UK I hate my waters compared to the US. Always love watching your videos man makes me wanna go fish everyday.
Enjoyed the content Nick💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Nice grass carp! Especially for such a tiny creek!
The hunt for Ol' Whisker Lips continues!!
Nice spot Nick... kinda trippy!
Nice video as usual, great job and effort. Playing the drums today for sure. Keep at it the 100 pounder will happen. Oh and graceful fall, you didn't even miss a beat. 👍
I was raised cat fishing. Great video here always.
This guy is so adorable, he's like how I acted in 8th grade, especially when he ran up the hill! 😭😭☺
You should get one of those cast fishing drones. That would be a sick addition to your fishing tools.
Another great video! Waiting for our favorite ponds to get stocked with catfish here in N.M.
Great video
I've always used green or cleat mono. While catfishing or black braid, they could be seeing the line. Excellent video, glad ya hasn't hurt with those falls...
See ya soon...
Man you don’t gotta pay so much for skipjack it’s so easy to catch em! Coolers full too! All you gotta do is get a little crappie jig or marabou jig and retrieve it extremely fast! And doing that I still got skipjack from last year!
Keep up the hunt.
That grass carp was badass.
I'd be so excited to see you land a 100lb cat. That would be awesome. Hope you are successful
Love the videos and your music choices
Great video Nick. Be careful my friend you don't have a stunt double. :)
Awesome. I love your bloopers. Never give up never surrender! TY from pig patrol knows where the big catfish bite. Or come visit me in Spain and we go to the Ebro river where the world's largest catfish are.
Nick falls down the cliff lands on sharp jagged rocks could have broke a leg or a hip arm or ribs pops right back up like a rubber ball and the first thing he says is the dish is still on now that's a true fisherman loving what he does
Hey Nick if you want bigger blue cats go to a big water spillway dam where humans controls the water flow get on the downside of the damn throw as far as you can and hold on and have fun cuz down here in Alabama we use 100 and up pound line a 150 pond blue cat here is very common good luck and see ya buddy
fell so hard , still have the fish . legend
Keep the faith man that 100 lber is coming 👍🏽👍🏽
Your ambition is inspirational! Embarking on such an adventure, in pursuit of a 100lb catfish, is truly impressive. I hope you have an adrenaline-filled experience and catch the trophy fish you're after. Best of luck on this captivating mission! You have a very interesting channel, and I've subscribed to it. Success and tight lines! Looking forward to new videos
Bro I'm so happy to see you going all out afte kitty's ( no pun intended) this I can get into .
Tight lines🎣🎣💪🏽
That spot with the bluffs looks really good for catfish . I would try fishing it at night with some live shad and only casting it out about 15-20 feet or finding the nearest shallow spot and fishing there. Blues like to relax in deep water but when they are actively hunting they will be up closer to the bank where the shad are.
With the fresh ink! Looks good bro! My artist in Grayslake would love to add more.
