    I have been kinda of joining with you on your weight lost process as I've enjoyed watching and learning more about catfishing...... I was 242 lb when starting to watch your success..... I even sent you a recipe using Plablano Peppers.... So today I'm 195 and still watching any video you put out.. I plan to get to about 185 lbs. Doing it one day and also one meal at a time.. Enough said, And now I'll finish watching this great video.

    Steve looking good , congrats on the weight loss . So happy for you !!! I moved down here on Table Rock Lake in 2016 and miss that river catfishing . From the St. Louis area fished the Mighty Mississippi River and the Missouri River. I may try that type of fishing down here on Table Rock Lake . I really miss that type of fishing.

    Mr Steve, where do you get those floats at? I usually use 2-3” floats but havent seen any like yours. It looks like it has a plastic insert.

    Hello Mr Steve!! I want to thank you for all that you do for the catfish community and for showing those that are thinking of targeting big catfish a way to do so. As you know, me and my dad (The Twerking Monkey aka POP) started our journey watching you and using your advice on how to target catfish. He was pleased to have met you during Catcon 2019 and until his death this past November, he would often tell people about meeting you and how down to earth you were. You were his hero when it came to Catfishing and I want to thank you for continuing to teach others as you taught us!!

    @hippiecatfishing4145 11 месяцев назад

    Been using those floats for a year now and I believe the shape of the float really helps the hook from being snagged so much while dragging. The diameter of the float is bigger than the hook.
