  1. Kayaker and Canoe Fishing
    I recently mentioned planning a catfishing trip down the Tennessee River in a kayak. I currently own a Perception Outlaw 11.5, which is very stable. I throw a cast net from it standing and I even cast my rods out standing if I need to get a little distance. However, this kayak doesn't have the...
  2. Blue Catfishing
    Hello All I came to ask all of you experts for advice. I have been running catfish trotline in the Chesapeake Bay brackish water with no success. I've tried many different areas. The issue, I think, is during the warm season the crabs destroy your bait within an hour of being set. I've heard...

  4. Blue Catfishing
    In search for the most humane way to quickly kill catfish, I have yet to find anything quicker than a couple of very hard whacks from a hammer to the head. I like the Iki method, but it’s not very practical with catfish hard skulls. My question is, is there anything blocking me from turning over...
  5. LOCAL VIRGINIA TALK
    Hey folks! Just moved to Virginia from Florida about 2 months ago. I have a Nucanoe Unlimited and I'm looking to start fishing the James for catfish.

  6. MINNESOTA RIVERS TALK
    So when I got back to my truck after fishing last weekend I noticed a paper shoved under my windshield wiper. It was an online survey of how fishing on the river was going. It was simple to fill out and took a few minutes. Not bad for a survey. I wonder why they are surveying. The river seems to...
  7. MINNESOTA RIVERS TALK
    Talked to the old timers who fish the river daily when I went out last weekend and was told that the flathead bite has slowed down this past week. Water temps have reached the lower 70s so I'm assuming they are spawning right about now. They we're catching a bunch of them from shore with 4-6"...

    Hello everyone. Haven't seen anyone post anything yet so I was just wondering how the water levels are on the Missouri river in the Sioux city area. I'm heading down that way this week to fish.

  10. All Catfishing
    I’m trying to decide between getting a set of mag troll 16” planer boards or getting a set of b Kat planer boards any suggestions would help… I would be using the these boards for trolling at a very little to no speed for stripers using live bait or cut bait for catfish. A rattle flag would be...

    Fishing after the storm Good morning, I went fishing about 2 hours after a storm and cold front pushed through this weekend. I don’t normally do great after a cold front, but this week was different. I think the fall bite over ruled the cold front slow down. After I found them the bite was...
  14. State-By-State Catfish Talk
    The wife and I had a great weekend of camping/fishing. It was awful windy but it sure was nice to get away from work. The grand kids came over for one night of camping and by the next day I was ready to go back to work to recover. Hahaha

    the bite seems to be picking up in my neck of the woods in western Kentucky. Frozen skipjack is doing the job in few holes. Nothing huge yet but the bite is getting steady.

  20. VIRGINIA LAKES / RESERVOIRS
    Hey all, new to the site. Was thinking of going out to Lake Frederick to try for some channel catfish as I heard they're stocked in the lake.
