Bad test. Use the same bait in chum area and not chum area. For a proper result.
Yes because it's just floating around
i stated that i alternated the rods at the end of that one
I think the dog food failed because you threw the food. When you poke holes in the can, the fish are attracted to the scent, but since the food remains in the can, there's nothing they can find to eat other than your bait. But when you took it out and threw it, you gave them so much to find and eat that they had no real need to seek and and eat your bait.

im howling XD
@@joepena6526Crack is a hell of a drug.
@@TheFishinMagician20 had to read it a few times thought I was trippin
Point to note, when chumming with a can of dog or cat food tie a string or rope to the can then you can pull it out when you have finished and you won’t be littering
Or just don’t throw it in the water and just put the contents where you want to chum and do better
i considered doing that but eh decided not to
Grew up putting cheap hard dog food in a potato sack with some weight and hanging it off the boat near bottom for catfish
@@BruceCrotty-mf1kx chumming, pollutes....
The point of putting the holes in it so it slowly chums over time not all at once
I've fished 50+ years approx 30 years ago my buddy and I performed the Wd-40 test while fishing striped bass near Stockton CA AND... RESULTS were absolutely NO DIFFERENCE in the bite! We sprayed baits consisting of Shad minnows, sardine, anchovies, mud suckers, pileworms crawdads and even clams for catfish! The bite was the same on both so.... Don't pollute with petroleum, it's NO advantage
HOWEVER, LIGHTLY SPRAYING YOUR LINE SPOOL SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVES CASTING preformance Making smoother longer casts while not causing abrasion to your mono! 20 lb mono casts like 10 lb test when sprayed w/Wd-40
it also seems to preserve the monofilament! No JOKE!
SDF
Fish cannot smell anything that isn't water-soluble (they can't smell anything unless it mixes with water). WD-40 literally stands for "Water Displacement-40" - it doesn't mix with water. If shouldn't affect fishing because the fish cannot sense it. So "no difference" makes perfect sense.
I always heard bananas were bad luck on a boat, not on shore
Even Malay poet had banana on boat
The test with dog food was a bit of a silly test, since you used 2 different baits on the dog food and the non dog food area. So maybe it was just the bait that caught you fish, instead of the chum of dog food.
i stated that i alternated the rods at the end of that one
@@TheFishinMagician20 my bad, I must have missed that. Apologies 👍🏻
@@Mike_V_1986 no worries man
Pam cooking spray works, I don't know about WD-40. And Pam is not a petroleum product.
i did hear a little about pam. I will have to give that a go.
We used WD-40 in Oregon in the mid to late '80s on nightcrawlers for rainbow trout and overall, it worked. It didn't work too well with trolling, but stationary bait fishing was pretty good. My dad trained me to be quiet while fishing, so even to this day, I don't whoop when I get a big fish, or a species first.. unsure if it makes a difference. One of my uncles swore by hole-punched cat food as chum, I can't remember if that worked (it was an overnight on the lake, so I probably slept most of the night). Great video and CONGRATS!!
thank you! That is good info there haha. I had to try the ones i heard the most
I'm surprised the WD-40 myth is still kicking around..
Such a fun video. They fish for trout with corn in Colorado. But the entire video was so entertaining!
thats right!
Reef fish absolutely love bananas. Really seems like they love any kind of carbs: bananas, crackers, bread...
yeah we also used bananas to caught bighead carp
You have to slice the Bananas & put them in , a dehydrator. They are a good bait for Carp. Plus if you go scuba diving in the ocean, squeeze them to attract hundreds of reef fish. Maggots & wasps grubs are even better than worms, trout go crazy for them 😊
When I was a kid we used WD 40 on my grandfathers boat in the ocean. When it hit the water it looked like when gas hits water so definitely petroleum based.
I later read that it really only eliminates your scent from the bait from cologne or something not good smelling the the fish.
Honestly I don’t think it mattered in the ocean and populates the water.
I thought wd40 is illegal 🤔
Why I clicked on video
Im glad you didn't
Fishing reel spray to loosen the line smells the same and is legal :)
yea that gets people to click haha. Yea i would have tried but people would have eaten me alive in the comments lol
Maize is what we use to catch carp in South Africa. We boil it till it is soft and then we mince it. We use that on a spring and whole kernel [ canned ] pips on the hooks. And yes maize is bad for fish if it is not boiled first.
About 30 years ago, I once caught a huge bass on a hot dog. I was at the baseball fields where I used to play little league and there was a huge creek behind the fields. I dunno how or why but it ended up in shallower parts of the water. So I threw a hot dog on the hook from the concession stands lol and within in a couple casts he took off with it.
Bet the grass carp would love banana peel chunks
I've been told it's a fish repellent if you handle baits with sunscreen on the hands after not thoroughly washing the sunscreen off.
I was thinking the same about mosquito spray the last couple times I've been out this summer
i have heard that too! I forgot that one shoot.
Try garlic oil for a scent carrier. It's harmless to the fish and they don't know what garlic is for better or worse, but it will blend with the bait and carry the bait's scent, while not washing off. (in the aquarium trade, you can dose garlic in your frozen food to work as an anti-parasitic - so yes, it's 100% safe)
A friend of mine and myself have caught many delicious Green Channel Catfish in the Upper Chesapeake Bay - Aberdeen Proving Grounds and other areas by chumming with dry cat or dry dog food. I'm not gonna tell you where, but I have a few places to get a LOT of it for REAL cheap (practically free). It works great! We usually catch other fish, too, however for them we have to use traditional methods - basically whatever is working at any particular time of the year.
Also, try chumming and fishing with corn and/or corn-flavored Power Bait for stocked - Rainbows, and panfish, as well as Sheephead, Trigger or other Barnacle-eating fish around SW structure like bridge-pilings, dock-pilings, etc. Port-Wine Cheese is another killer for early season stocked trout!
Good luck if you're gonna try these methods!
Dog food chum works. It doesn't work the same day. It works the next day. Gives the chum time to break down and the fish will stick around after feeding time cause there is easy food there
Most times fish are typically on the bottom, especially bigger fish. More than likely talking would bother them unless you are really loud or something.
Eat a great video on fishing myths. Hope you had as much fun doing this video as I had watching it. Thanks for the fun. Be blessed. My friend.
thanks man!
I've used canned corn as bait and done pretty good.
I use plastic carp chum bags for chummy for catfishing and bluegill but carp fishermen fill them with corn the bags resolve in water and have some corn on there hook
I have seen those before pretty cool!
20:11 in the councel of icelandic fly fishing for trout and char and salmon no opposite the small trout are agressive for their siblings but big fish want like size 22 dry flies or nymphs but the balls will often take big flies
keep up the great work, your videos are much appreciated. Its also so cool to see places Ive been around have fish I didn't know about
thank you man, shoutout sableye
Congratulations on the new member of the family.
thank you!
Putting holes in the can works because it slowly releases the smell and small bits of food that will attract both small fish and large fish.
18:36 was so sick brother, most satisfying type of bite
heck yea bro
Your bad luck is due to ya reel'n from the wrong side of the reel.😂
We all have trouble digesting corn lol
I will not allow bananas on my boat. I decided one time to test this out and shut down the fishing after eating one. To make matters worse, I threw the peel into the water and managed to hook the peel onto a spoon on a downrigger that had a been the hot spoon all morning. After an hour with no bites, we went to change it out and saw the peel there. Never again. Bad juju.
No comparison using a worm compared to jello chicken.
i switched the rods brother i even say so in the video
😂😂I like the fact you throw dog food near an aerator and feel it just drops to the bottom. 😂😂 In that little area current was pushing the dog food away from the aerator 😂 I watched the waves coming from the aerator reaching over to where you were standing. 😂
yea i mean it probably spread out a little but an aerator isn't a river current. the non chum bait rod was clear in the middle of pond not even close to aerator.
@@TheFishinMagician20 Worm is the most consistent bait over all for a more broad species! When all else fails on targeted fishing put on a worm if you want some kind of action. And working with those type of aerators, from the size appearance, it should circulate or aerate a pond a little over 5 acres. Not river flow but it does move water. Keep the going with the highly relatable videos! You could try a somewhat chum fishing challenge with that dog food using bait keepers. If you ever wanted to revisit the chumming from a different angle. The mesh lets it seep out, but this technique is best with a treble hook but it can be done with circle hooks. Hook up suffers some! Again a like from me!
Dog food true. Iuse it all the time to lure baitfish, big fish follow baitfish. When camping we use entire 30 pound bag in wire mesh and leave it two to three days before trip then entire area full
Catfish and carp is awesome. Luke is the goat
Great video I love your small canell video when u fish the small area u always catch nice fish that's the good about watching u always bring the best videos keep it up brother
thank you man i try my best!
Corn flavor dough bait works great for trout.
Zekes back in the day
Living West nere Peoria Az
Our urban parks dont look
Nothing like this. This Park
Is nice.
I caught a 28 inch carp today in an AZ canal
Where
awesome !
I heard if you put holes in the dog food and threw it in the water and come back that’s when they will be biting
i think it releases the scent slower maybe
Go pro reputation is declining from what I hear my fishing buddy feeds his fish dried dog food
The WD40 company says no fish oil is in product
I use bananas in my carp bait and it works great, lol.
Carp love corn- never heard it kills fish in CA.
I have a question I stopped fishing at my canal for a couple weeks I come back this morning there are over 100 koi’s in the canal do u know how they got there
not sure go catch them!
bananas are not bad luck for fishing, but for actually having them on the boat.
Hey i live close to when you did the srp canals video do you want to go fishing sometime?
The only way corn would kill a fish is if I change my name to corn. 🌽
lol
Actually, just like us, fish can't digest the outer skin of the kernels of corn. We end up with undigested kernels in our stool samples. They can end up with a plugged butt, causing them to die.
Great knowledgable vid.
thanks!
If you want to make a fun video look up spin bubble it a clear thick plastic bobber torpedo shape tie on your line then 3 foot leader then a foam spider then and hour before dark when the bluegill are hitting the surface toss out reel and stop hang on for lots of fun
Corn is hard for humans to digest also
You didn't test dog food. You tested worms vs jello chicken.
I want to see you fish for giant catfish using unscented bloody tampons.
We used to do this when we were teens. We'd put some chicken livers in a blender till the chicken lives were liquified then soak the unscented tampons in the liver soup.
We'd then freeze the bait so that when we got to our fishing spot out bloody tampons were semi-frozen.
It worked like gang buster for us.
Why didn't we just use chicken livers alone? It was because our big sisters used to buy the cheap unscented tampons in bulk, and because as kids we couldn't afford to buy baits ourselves.
If our bloody tampon baits needed a refreshing, we'd simply dip them back into our liquified chicken liver. I wish I had some pictures of the fish we caught as kids but, we were also too poor to buy a camera, let alone camera film.
very interesting lol
Lmfao I use banana for carp and absolutely slay the carp
Banana 🍌 is not bad luck 😂 for fishing I don't believe in that lol
I firmly believe corn wasnt meant to be are in kernel form..i mean even us humans cant digest it right either 😅
lmaoooo
Yes I have used WD-40 and have caught a lot of catfish
What’s your recommendation on catfish bait?
Jello chicken
Shrimp is a big one that I use
If you can stand the smell, the stinkier the better
The WD40 is a very old school thing. My grandfather fished with treble hooks and cotton balls soaked in WD40 for catfish and always caught fish.
That's great for the rivers and lakes lol
@@Chalz108 didn't say it was environmentally friendly. Things were just different back then. The '70s was nothing like today.
thats crazy haha
Have you ever tried vanilla extract for scent attraction ?
For carp yes
try fishing on bottom in dog food area
i actually did switch the rods i stated that in the video
The human body doesn't digest corn that well either just like the fish
I'm glad you didn't use the WD-40. I've tried it myself a few times & absolutely had no luck with it.
shoot
Only bad luck is missing out on Heaven and going to hell.
Bananas are bad luck? ive been using them for bait for sunfish and carp and they are 100% the best bait for sunfish and carp ive ever used so im surprised they say its bad luck I just barely use it because bananas are more expensive then bread and other baits.
My son calls the 40 secret sauce hahaha.. he said Mark no!!!! Back in the nineties we used to use that to catch bullheads. Aways awesome bro to watch your magic show 2.0 and congratulations magician!!
thanks! haha secret sauce! thats awesome. I appreciate yall!
Every time I’m fishing and not getting any bites I’ll grab a snack. When I have a banana and start eating it all of a sudden I’m getting bites. So they are bad luck is false.
lol i know everyone has there differing views and i don't truthfully think it makes a difference. I just figured it would cause some people to speak up about it lol
If I go on a boat and see WD-40 in The tackle box and a bunch of bananas I'm getting off. By the way I read that the banana bad luck myth comes from a history of banana boats sinking, overloaded with bannanas out of the Caribbean.
My grandmother used to tell me you have to sing to the fish if you want them to bite. I'm pretty sure she's right.
haha that one i have certainly done before
Haha the white bread technique is the closet to fly fishing with a dry fly 🤠
lol pretty much
In Hawaii the Banana myth was so females would not be allowed on boat.my wife always went with me and we always brought fish home
You need to use the same bait on both poles or it's not a fair test
Pretty sure any ripe fruit releases ethylene gas
good info there
No premier?? lol
5 days in the hospital no time XD I a not going to be doing them anymore for the most part unless i have a longer vid and time
Chum the night before for better results
Try garlic pam
Y'all know that soap kills fish
Had an uncle Bob used to take me fishing back in the 70’s. ( what do you wanna be when you grow up kid? I wanna be a professional fisherman….. ain’t no such thing ! ) He swore by WD40. The man would get so drunk he’d have to turn the wheel over to a 14 year old 😂 to drive us back to town. It never worked & his whole tackle box reeked if it !
Loved the vid kid !
Oh & a shout out to my 94 year old uncle Bob !!
lmao! Thats awesome hahaha shoutout! thanks for watching!
Wd 40 works because it has shark oils
You need to re due the chum one cause you used different baits
not sure if you saw i mentioned i switched rods with differing baits and got the same result.
The myth, as you've described it, is totally false. The true story is based on common sense and bad luck. In the old days, food was real bad on ships. So they were fishing along the way to improve the menu. Bananas rot quite fast, so a boat transporting bananas had to go as fast as possible and wouldn't slow down to allow people to fish. This is why being on a boat transporting bananas was bad luck.
So NO bananas onboard, BUT you must have a sandwich. Why? Because the fish always bite when you're eating your....sandwich!
lol this is true the sandwich bite is real
@@TheFishinMagician20 LOL and btw, it was an interesting video. Too many takes this way too seriously! Oh... while at it...With the corn... the myth (maybe one of yhe mythsssss), is to open a can and pour it at one spot for a few days. This, to make it an habit for the fish to come there. I've never tried it, so can`t tell if it works or not and I think it`s even illegal at some places.
Brooooo, I was wondering how you were gonna pull off using that WD40 😮💨😮💨😮💨
hahaha played it safe
WD40 does Infact work
You’ll be Americas most wanted
Well in fact the wd-40 doesn't work anymore , but it definitely used ro because it was made our of fishoil when it first was made but now ,not at all
Go to river view patk
You threw WAY TOO MUCH CORN OUT! Besides, your corn kernels were TOO BIG for sunnies!
try marshmellows
That’s bad when catfish stay away from something. What the heck are we feeding our dogs?
To be fair you should of used the same bait.
I think there was so much dog food in the water the fish were just eating that.. and that's the reason they didn't eat his lure
Just punching a hole in the can would release the smell and draw them in, but not fill the area with food
lol right! There's a lot of reasons it didn't work as suspected and endless ways in could have gone haha. People are taking it a bit too serious on here ;p
Great video
Thanks!
Orange
Gopro are junk. Time to get a 360
You should try Wendy's chicken nuggets and or a few dfrnt fast food places nuggets
hmmmm
Talking has zero effect on suburban pond fish, which are surrounded by ambient noise constantly. Try speaking in a normal tone around a quiet mountain stream, and watch all the fish dart under cover and hide for 30 minutes.
@@stevescuba1978 I 100% agree
@@TheFishinMagician20 as I finished the video, I see you addressed this. Great job closing loopholes! Whereabouts you fishing in Chandler? My dad was a professor at ASU for 25+ years, and I grew up in Tempe, awatukee, Mesa, and Chandler. I learned to fish at Kiwanis Park, and it still has my PB rainbow trout, a 22 inch pregnant sow with a softball sized belly. back in those days, Chandler was mostly farms.
Also, one case in which smaller baits catch bigger fish....gold medal trout waters....smart fish, lots of pressure, size 22 midges and a perfect presentation are about the only way to hook one.
Have you ever used killer corn dye
no but ive seen it
Have you gone fishing at the new Frontier family Park Lake in Queen Creek yet?
i have not
Is that your house your fishing from
i wish. my buddies
Land locked,
City Fish. X pollution
How’s the fishing at that first pond my friend lives in those apartments but I’ve never fished there
hit and miss
