I caught a catfish one time that would fit in a Volkswagen
Every catfish I ever caught would fit in a Volkswagen. I even caught some that would fit in a Smart car, a school bus, a Boeing 747, and some that would fit on a motorcycle, or in a Radio Flyer red wagon.
Awsum 🙃
@@tonycardone990 That is just shameless braggin' Tony. 😀
I had a Volkswagen once. And if I put into it all the catfish I caught, there would still be room for 4 people!
@@davehendricks4824 My brother had a Chevy Malibu that we went catfishing in one time, we used chicken liver for bait; when we left we put the fishing poles and the bait in the trunk. He forgot about the chicken livers in the trunk and drove around for a week wondering what the smell was. After that you couldn't find 4 people that would ride in in the car.
Spotsville Kentucky railroad trestle bridge on the green river. There is a 700 foot deep hole there. The Army Corp of engineers sent down divers to check it out back in the 70s. They came out scared to death. Catfish and paddle fish big enough to swallow a man. Fishermen have tried to catch the monsters with saltwater electric reels and steel cable. And still get broke off.
You’re high. If there was a 700’ hole in the river it would quickly fill up with sediment.
Back in the late 1970's my sister had some friends that scuba dived Cheney Reservoir in south central Kansas. They told her they would never dive near the dam because of the size of the catfish they saw. They would do the rest of the lake, but never again the dam. No claims to car sized fish, only fish big enough that the Kansas kids didn't want to be near them. Always wondered if those divers ever did an ocean. Fish are really big there.
And, as muddy as that water is, I've always wondered how they saw anything at all.
I've wondered the samething . I've put Gopros in the lakes and couldn't see anything . I know firefighters that are divers and they say they can't see anything . But they still say they are really big catfish down there lol
I heard the basically the same story for a lake in Texas. I think its a story to keep kids away from dams which can be dangerous.
I have an uncle who dived in the Ohio river here in Cincinnati. There are deff not fish that big, there are some very very large catfish down there though.
Yea, I’ve seen some big ones caught down in Newport
Well, Mr. Cranky, you and Keith did it again. Ya'll done another purty good video.
I'm not gonna argue with science, but I gotta say that they are wrong on line color.
Crappie don't seem to be line shy (in regards to line color).
But an old bass, line color makes them nervous as a long tail cat in a room of rockin chairs.
Keep up the great work there, brother.
God bless you and your family, and ya'll have a blessed day.
You should check out the mekong giant catfish, it's the largest catfish out there. The largest perch is the Nile perch.
almost 650lbs, still not as big as a VW
Just a cool video thank you my friend stay safe. Semper Fidelis
Glad to see Cranky is back in full bloom !
Myth or not? "Wind out of the east, fish bite the least"!
wind out of the west bite the best
You are hysterical! My husband was watching you and I happened to see one of your videos and I was hooked! Here’s the crazy part… I don’t even fish! 😂. I’ve subscribed and watch your videos religiously because you are so funny (and I love your little sidekick). You are so entertaining and your buddies are so funny that you’re just a joy to watch. (Just sayin’) Keep ‘em coming. You have tons of fans out here 😊
Eileen that means so much more than you realize . That you very much. I really appreciate that
Loved it, especially the "cars as big as catfish.... wait, did I get that right? The myths that are almost as fun are the ones on big deep lakes, such as Tahoe, Lake Champlain , Loch Ness, etc. You should compile a list of lakes with "monsters" and then advise us as to the gear you think we'll need to land em.
Lmbo 😁 . That's a great idea lol
That makes a lot of sense!!!! Lets go fishing!
Flathead Lake in Montana is said to be over 1,000ft deep.
Cherokee lake bubba🌵🥃🚬
I always told if cows laying down. Fish are not biting. 😅
🤔😃
This one is true 👍🏻 I have tested this one 😁
Of course I think it’s the barometric pressure but if every cow in the field is bedding down the fish are as well
I was told the opposite if they ARE laying down it's good fishing now I'm confused
The Bay Area of California had the legend of sturgeon the size of cars when the divers were working on the Benicia Bridge. There are some bigass Sturgeon in there. Supposedly they use to pull 1000 pounders out with horses and mules back in the olden days. I'm thinking I heard 1800lbs reported
You're right... This video WAS purdy interesting...! Even Cranky was hooked!
God bless ALL of us!

Lol 😁
Ah just LOVE that talking lure!!!
I had an older gentleman tell me that over in Alabama, at Weiss Lake he seen with his own eyes 3 catfish swimming up river that was so big you couldn’t have put all three in a long bed pickup at the same time. I was young at the time and looked for them every time I was close to the water. Great video Keith.
Wheeler dam on the low side Elgin Alabama
When I was a kid, we had a big flood that flooded the soybean fields close to where I live. The Point Remove creek runs through this area towards and connects to the AR river. Towards the mid to end of summer, the flood had been long gone and we were in a pretty good draught. I was riding my 3 wheeler down the Point Remove creek, mostly mud with a few feet of water in places. Well I came up on a large brush pile and there was a catfish the size of a sofa! It had got caught in the brush and died. Even though it was rotting, it was freaking huge!
Much love from Paris Tennessee.
"Home of the world's biggest fish fry"
Thank you Paris Tennessee
It took a real educumater to teach us these important thangs bout fishin
Ok, myth or fact? "If the cows ain't eatin' the fish ain't bitin'." Per my Dad and Grandpaw from Mule Holler Tennessee.
Great video thanks for sharing your knowledge and I might add it's some good knowledge 😁🎣🎣
Well you have done it again. Just making awesome videos and keeping fishing fun. Thank you for all you do. Looking forward to your next video.
I hear those car stories I just sit back and smile. Ya there are some big ones down there but.
Lmao did he just say bariatric pressure 😂
I believe the dive n Ohio river to recover the body’s from the silver bridge collapse is how urban voltswagon legend started … along with the mothman
I know fishermen that park their boats 3 days before full moon, while I keep on fishing and cleaning fish.😊
I loved this format!! Good stuff, informative as always, great jokes and gags… ya got this stuff down, my man!
You are a treasure, sir! I've only said that about one other youtube couple and I'm on here hours a day.
Keep em coming Keith great vid keeps me laughing
Thanks for the info , always a great time watching your videos.😊
Excellent video my friend!
Thank you Kris
100% SPOT ON! and yet, there are some people you just cannot convince. Same ones think Mitchell 300's and Zebco (Abu) Cardinals were the best reels ever made. It is in their heart, not their brain, and there is no convincing them otherwise, so it is best just to smile :) and keep quiet.
That was the best . You are awesome brother great info and I'm so glad that someone finally got that out there. I can tell you as a diver when you run into a big catfish under water they look a lot bigger than they are especially in dark stained river water
Well I would think I'd be pretty scary to find a huge fish you can't really see lol
Awesome video 👍 Thanks for sharing 👍
I have personally seen catfish as big as Volkswagens....in my dreams 😅
Dewey Dam in eastern Kentucky , divers went down to work on the dam, one said he never go back down there but that what they said Volkswagens
Great video on fishing myth 's I learned something valuable today
My Daddy told me or repeated a similar story about Santee. He said when divers were needed around the dam, they had to hire out-of-state divers because the catfish (always catfish) were so big. The locals would not dive. Was also told that the freezers had to be cut end-to-end to hold said cats. Long live the legends!
I grew up hearing the same stories from my papaw. 👍
I haven’t fished in 20 years, most engaging video I’ve watched in a while. Well done 🤘🏼
That little lure you got is a smart 4$$. Id be telling him hes goin on the line.
I think the only one you miss was about fishing before and after the full moon
Sounds like the story of fish trap dam in Kentucky. Always heard these stories mainly the one of big blue.
The more i watch this video, dude you got me cracking up 😂😂😂
Pretty crazy interesting. Thank you.
LOL. DAT DANG GON FISH. DEN HE GOT A COLLECTION OF HATS😅😅
Lmbo
Love your video's man .
Thanks for the video, great job as always.
Well,, what else do you say,, that's Purty Dang Awesome right there y'all,, Mr, Crank bait is as always a super star lol,, and I must concur with the findings of the myths busted,, However,, Fall and winter is my favorite time's to fish ,
And Fish bite in the water not in the rain lol 🤣🤣🤣 ,, imagine that Huh 🤷🏻♂️ lol 🤣😆 , Great Video Again, 🐟🐡🎣🤠🇺🇸
I recon urge rite lol 😆
Lakes that freeze up in winter go through to inversions every year. They affect fishing. Spring inversion the warm surface water drops down. The fish go from post spawn to summer fishing habits. The next inversion happens late fall. The cold water at the surface drops . That inversion makes fish suspend. Your fish finder will show targets at all depends and they don't bite or at most light strike. They come out of it and go into winter routine. I don't know if southern waters do that. It sounds like they might to some extent by what you described.
I live a short drive from Kerr and there are catfish as big as they get. They are definitely big but a 100 lbs is just a touch smaller than a car. 😂
I Like This Type of Video. Please make more videos like this one.
Fish really smell when they are out of the water for a day or two. lol
I was swimming in gasoline alley just above Davis dam in the waters below hover dam. I saw a fish as long or a little longer. I’m 6’5”. I t was the same size of a black tail shark. Amazing expierance.
This was the great video I hope you put out more like it
So funny Kentucky dam is where my grandpa "Steve Boros" worked, him and his friends dove down to check for cracks,not to fix the dam...the Volkswagen that he was speaking of was in fact a beetle he drove to work every single day until it caught on fire one day😂 facts
Thank you for this video grandpa wasn't afraid of anything I can recall but did request cages for accidental reasons, like one of them get caught in the current and literally go in their mouth! Which he also said the spoonbill seem to be even bigger❤
Me and my brother's have tried our whole life to land one, we've had to cut lines before because was dangerous not much leverage, I even have some Kentucky dam videos of us fishing 🎣 on here and snagging,thanks again I was so amazed to cross that story sense my grandpa came home excited being a fisherman to see such a thing,he would love to know that legend will never die,so maby not your standard Volkswagen, I don't know what I would do even if I got ahold of the one's they saw swimming with the current on the bottom of that massive concrete wall, I would fight it as long as possible just to get a good picture of it on the top of the water.
Your grandpa was a cool dude . 😎
I always heard that if the cows were lying down, the fish wouldn't bite. Also, they said that if you make noise they won't bite.
I lked this video. Great work.
Here's an old myth: fish quit biting at the first clap of thunder. (Probably started to get the dummies off the water when there's lightning)
Great job on this one.
Very interesting I to have always believed that there. Was catfish big enough to swallow a man at the dams . Here in Texas like Sam Rayburn and Toledo dam
It most have been 50 years ago now.Divers went down below the lake Martin dam.And said that very thing.That there was catfish as big as VWs.I think it made the paper.
Amazing you mention the divers before i watched this video 😂
That was a fun one! 👍🎣
Thank You My Friend, for all Your posts! You are a positive energy in this world!
Stay Strong! Will
I just got back from NC. Everything I seen was "AWESOME"
The old lady hit me after day 3.

Luv ya man and can’t wait till the next video.
I don’t care what fish can an can’t do! All I care about is the videos you put out. Your the master fabricator that I love watching! Actually I do care bout what fish do,know what I’m saying,know what I’m saying? I had a failed attempt to be the little fish in your videos! Lol. Keep these videos coming sir!!👍
It’s the same for saltwater if you go just before a hood rain you might have a good chance of hooking up !!!!
Another great video Sir. I hear what ya saying.. Keep’em coming
I want in. Those are pretty cool. Crap happens and sometimes we have to leave in the dark those would be awesome to have
I always heard “The fish don’t know it’s raining. Cameo by Plankton was cool.
My grandma always said the catfish are biting best when the cottonwood seed is blowing out the trees
I had one of my best days ever catching bass in a 20mph wind and rain. And nobody wants to fish in windy weather, the lake, river is yours alone.
I caught my biggest bass in January. A 9 pounder!
Winter has always produced big bass for me. Just have to slow down, and try and drop the bait on their head.
I believe I read once that the big bass were more likely to bite in the winter, because of the opportunity and their sluggishness.
(A little tip I learned decades ago can help; use some “hot hands” or just your own hands to warm up the lure. Plastics and jugs work best. Sometimes the little bit of extra heat will be sensed and cause a fish to bite when it might not have otherwise.)
Good for you!
@@choccolocco thanks for the tip
I'm 61 I've heard of catfish big enough to swallow a grown man since I was a kid it's an old wives tale😂
From my own experience: #1- Biggest catfish I ever caught bit while I was sitting in a warm summer rain! #3- I catch more fish on red hooks; I don't know or care why, only that it works! #4- Scent disperses slower in cold water, so the fish that find food by smell bite slower in winter. Great video, as usual! Thank you!
I've been a diver since I was 12yrs old and have dove in every mud hole in alabama including around most of the dams. I'm 59 yrs old and have never seen a catfish big as any car. Now if u take a 100lb catfish and lay him on the tailgate, that's a big catfish. If u swim up face to face under that muddy water to the same catfish, that's a BIGGGGGG catfish. One things for sure if a fish ate me he'd be full cause I'm a pretty big fella. Lol
Lmbo
Thank you!
Lol I know that pic of the Catfish in the bed of the truck. It's in the next town over. Lampasas Tx.
My papaw used to ask me if I had seen a catfish,my answer was always yes and then he would say " how does he hold his pole" 🤣
My PB was a 4' channel cat, and the guys who dive by the dam said they've seen 6' cats. I've seen a 5' carp pulled out of that lake, so I don't see why not.
Dude your trippin, I laughed out loud at that. My dog even looked at me like she was trippin cause I was laughing. Another informative and amusing video. Your awesome.
Haha 😄 thank you
Grew up near Kerr Lake. I really miss it.
I know what your saying and it's bang on!
Shoot, that was Chico. 🤠he’s a picker
Educational and entertaining 👍👍
Thank you Sir
Thank you
I know where that catfish on the truck is. Its also a good place to snow goose hunt.
Good Job
That sounds what they say about Green River down here in Ky... Gossip of scuba divers looking for a missing person said...
Great video, know what I'm sayn, keepem comin.
The color red disappears first yes....but the thing that was red, appears gray to black to our eyes. The thing that's red does not become invisible as it's lowered through the water.
I know what ya sayin'! I heard this story told about every major dam in Texas. BTW, the big catfish on the old truck art was n display for years in Waco, Tx.
I'd love see it in person lol
Good to me 👍👍
Another great video
100% correct on all busts. But, them catfish do get big at dams.
They do I agree . I widgets we had wels catfish here
Everyone said it. Great Video. Cranky is the bomb 💣
I catch more and bigger bass in the winter. Can't beat a warming trend with the temp spiking right before a strong cold front, imho
There's a myth or superstition we have and it's do not pump gas in boat or truck the day of fishing. Always have to do it night before.
river monster tv show caught some giant catfish in Thialand... big as a yugo.... LOL
I was fishin' with my buddy Catfish at the dam the other day and he caught a Volkswagen with a Beetle!!😎🎣
