Love the way you're not scared to show everybody all your technique And I know how hard it is to net a big one by yourself And you make it look easy One of the best fishermen I've seen Thanks for all the tips

[MrBubbahunt]

Great tips dave...Richard gene (the fishing machine) fishes that lake and he's caught some big flatheads and blues from those waters . Maybe you two could meet up sometime..thanks for your posts dave and I like your sweatshirt...

Watched this again. Thanks for taking us along for a great evening of fishing on Guntersville. I have to say I have never caught a fish big enough to pull my pants down. Hope your are getting some well deserved income from the channel. A lot of us are watching and wishing we could be there. You make us feel like we are there with you.

Thanks Dave!
Your Show is the Best year round catfishing entertainment.
Those Potomac young bucks don't have a clue how to grow a channel without screaming like idiots on a live stream.
You have proven your master level for years over most of the chasers.
HLC is another great non shilling channel that you obviously like. I hope you and HLC can do a collaboration and show the wannabe catfishing channels how it is done.
You rock!

The point school is the reason why you rock.
Leaders, bait, gear.
Great video Dave and thanks for letting us hang out with ya on the water.

True story. My teacher asked me the other day who inspires me to be like them when I grow up. I said Catfish Dave, she said who?
Almost forgot nice flathead!!!

[vernt]

Nice to see enjoying your new career!!! Keep them coming out. Enjoying the nice fish. I had a brother who worked for a paper mill and fished all year around every month when he got his five days off. Just wanted to catch the big opps..

I tell my grandsons that fish bite twice a day: Just before you get there, and after you leave.

Also, the lake I fish most, Lake Overholser in Oklahoma City, I have seen evidence that what you say is definitely true.
No matter what size or species fish these people catch, they keep, or at least take away from the lake.
Oklahoma has a possession limit on most species. I have seen people catch the limit, carry them away, then return to catch more.

Awesome video Dave! That’s some of the best information on catfishing I’ve heard. Thanks for taking us along!👍🏻

[RockyDrakeOutdoors]

I’ve live here close to Guntersville all life and never fish for big catfish
until the other day. I went out with Blacksheep Catfishing Guide Service, J.R.Hall to do a YouTube video for my channel Rocky Drake Outdoors.
We caught 2 over 60lbs, and 1 over 50 !!! Incredible day on the water !
I can highly recommend Blacksheep Catfishing Guide Service J.R. Hall 💯
I really enjoy your videos Dave !!

[shanesstilltalking]

That one went 80 for sure. You’re the goat, Dave. For sure.

[jennieharding]

You forgot one thing, A BIG NET!. You and the kayak guy are the reason I even started fishing for catfish about 3 years ago. I have a place on a lake in GA and almost every time I'm there I 1st work on catching a bream then as soon as I have one it goes on a 5/0 circle hook 1/2oz weight and then out it goes. Our place is about middle of the cove and would say catching most of these fish in 8-10' of water. I say you need a big net because I lost one of the biggest yet because he would not fit in the damn net I had and after about 4 attempts he finally broke off. I fixed that problem though, and just 2 weeks ago landed a 38" blue that was My biggest to date is 42" blue that I got when the lake was down and I was able to climb down in the mud and drag it in, never forget that. BIG THANKS for all the info and entertainment you provide!!!!

Tell you what Dave, sometime you gotta come up to Michigan. Fish the Saginaw River that goes into Saginaw Bay/Lake Huron. Freshwater ocean, there is NOBODY who fishes catfish here. Literally. We catch monsters as bycatches jigging walleye. I honestly feel you would be impressed. No joke. Regardless, great video brother! Thank you

[PackmanOutdoor]

I learnt everything I use now from Catfish Dave. After meeting him I caught the biggest fish consistently I had ever caught in my life. Keep it up Dave 🐐

[stsumo]

Hey Dave, Dude that flat was a tank. I wish you had weighed it. Man you always find the big ones. Great job....

Dave's the only Youtuber that doesn't say "Please stay on" He just be laughing.
