If you think NC is thumbs up...then you haven't been to Tennessee brother. I know I'm a born and raised NC'linian. Weather's better, fishin's better, people's attitude towards each other is better. What can I say to convince you to at least check it out for yourself. Have a great day my brother.
Another Outstanding fishing video from that Catfish Dave. Barking Dog, waffle house story and of course the one that got away! Thanks Catfish Dave for yet another great fishing video. Now he has a back up ..go to spot to get bigger blue catfish. Look forward to seeing another fishing video from N C
I would love to see you in Virginia on John Kerr Reservoir “Buggs Island” home of the 143lb world record Blue. Many massive fish there all over the lake. Make sure you have your Navionics updated.
Virginia tax man would be charging Catfish Dave by the pound. VA taxes the piss out of EVERYTHING! SW VA is pretty, but would never want to live there. Have some family that used to live there and everyone moved away to get away from crazy taxes.
"That's a Dieter Melhorn-size fish." I fell over laughing. I watched my first Dieter Melhorn video just yesterday and every fish he caught was that size. That video was good and I liked it. lol Thanks, Dave. Nice catfish and girls in NC, you know.
Welcome to North Carolina, Dave! Great video! You're sort of in my neck of the woods here. I spent quite a bit of time on Badin Lake and Lake Tillery in my younger days. As you know, the Yadkin/Pee Dee falls through and steps down through several lakes right through this part of the state. High Rock Lake flows into Tuckertown Reservoir, then Badin Lake, then on into Lake Tillery, where it thereafter becomes the Pee Dee instead of the Yadkin. I'm nowhere near the fisherman you are, but I've heard all my life that nothing beats the catfishing at Tuckertown Lake. I'd love to see you do a trip down to Tuckertown sometime. I'm located in Guilford County, and most of my lake time growing up was actually spent on what we always called Bugg's Island Lake, which is more properly known as John H. Kerr Reservoir. Most of that lake lies in Virginia, but both states honor fishing licenses from the other state. That really would be a long pull for you coming all the way from Eastern Tennessee, but they reportedly have some monster cats up there too. By the way, I LOVE Eastern Tennessee. And I HATE a barking dog.
There were 5 different "dagblasteds" in this video, by my count, including dagblasted Rain, Dogs, Cars, Bass Boats and Channel Cats. Best video yet, thanks Dave!
Sure thing the pee dee is full of cats glad to see you in my neck of the woods. Pretty impressive to show up and catch quality fish first time on the lake
Dave, I just came across this video and man its awesome!!. Not only the quality of the catfish you caught but I noticed how relaxed you were. North Carolina is a good get away location for you.
This is my favorite fishing channel. And yes im from North Carolina. Dave you are the best cat fishing man i have ever seen in doing what you do. But i have to say I love the fish with stripes and I love to eat them and cat fish.
Having been born and raised in NC, it was nice to see you make this video. I will admit that there is a good reason that I am in Tennessee. I feel like you have experienced many of the same issues I having left there for. Drivers in NC are without a doubt hard to take.It seems like everybody wants to be in first place. Most of that muddy water comes from the red clay the area is famous for. Hate you missed that first big fish . Very possible it could have been one of those danged old fish with the stripes on it.. They are pretty plentiful in the area. Anyway Dave, I appreciate your videos and get your butt back up here to God's country. Carolina can't hold a candlelight to the Volunteer state. Looks like you did pretty fair though. Hope you had a good time. T'would be fun to go fishing with you, even if we had to put up with some of those dad-blasted dogs. Safe travels to you.
Hey cat fish dave! Glad to see ya in n.c...speakin of heartbreak..i hooked up on the biggest catfish i ever hooked up on last sunday it pulled my anchored kiyak slap to the bank and wraped around a tree under water where i fought him for over an hour constantly pullin drag!...only to come unhooked😢....lake rhodehiss nc....the one that got away!...huge fan god bless and keep the videos coming. You are my hero!
Great idea to travel for good weather. I've do that a couple of times each winter. And when sitting in the middle of a foggy lake and hearing a boat coming-Scream so they might hear you. Great video. Thanks Dave.
Hey Dave excellent video this is in my area where I live now, I’m originally from Texas I know it’s a haul away but if you have go to Texas lake Tawakoni or lake Whitney are great cat-fishing lakes.
1st. Go get em dave. One day you're gonna yell at a dagblasted dog and someone's gonna yell... hey everyone. Catfish dave just told my dog to shut the hell up
I am a Catfish Dave fan from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 and am down your neck of the woods every Thursday through Saturday i will haveto keep an eye out for you maybe ill be able catch up with you and say hi awesome video's chief love em all
Wow this is the first video I’ve ever watched of yours, when your pulling in the boat ramp that guy with the black bibs and blue hoodie on is me and my buddy Cody, we were pulling out I guess I was walking to my truck , what a small world !
@@bullishbeartrader6121 I watch Dieter lol, he’s a good dude. I watched Dieter interview Dave at the catfish conference last year, I was just curious where Dave’s animosity towards him came from. 🤷♂️😂
@@xSteve1983x Back sometime ago Dieter unsubscribed him over something stupid.Dieter is a user.He watches a guy like fishing with Billy who know,s good spot;s on the tennessee river'and get's a young you tuber to go with him and learn his hotspot's 'then the very next video'he's there in his hotspot the very next day without him.Once he learn's your spot 'he doesn't need you any more.The catching catfish on chicken all came from watching chatts catts fishing do it.Let on like it was his expertise .Far from it.
I was wondering when that was gonna happen and sure enough you catch one and try to net it between all of your rods and pull up half of them. But you did get er in the boat. Just had to laugh 😆. Keep on catching them Dave.
Barkin dogs,bad service, and ugly waitress, that doesn’t sound like a good trip!! At least you caught some fish, way to put in the time!! Keep bringing the vids!!
Hey Hey, Dave. How come you're over that way.. Did you hear news or sumpin? Nice Channel cat. Man that fog would drive me crazy. Well it did clear up a little. Some good size fish. Not bad for a guy just passing through. Thanks Dave enjoyed it.
You were in my neck of the woods on this one. I put my kayak in at that ramp all the time and have had pretty good success around all the bridges on that stretch.
Salt Creek is a great BG tune for drivin. Good choice and first I heard it on your vids. You sure got a nice mess of Blue cats today. Size and numbers ! I think them dagblasted dogs bring you fish and you just dont know it. lol Thanks for takin me fishin Dave.
Dave, love your videos. Curious if you ever make videos that show how you rig your poles for both bank and boat fishing. If be interested in learning what works best for you. Keep up the great content!
This is my home lake and it’s so cool seeing you there! Mostly crappie fish it but occasionally catfish near the dam on the north end. The cat fishing in the river south of tillery can be amazing
I love it that you are targeting bridges Dave. I am trying to graduate from Channel Catfish. Got an urban Mi big river spot with 3 bridges in 2 miles in 25 ft of water, if I ever get there. Supposed to hold 40 Lb Flatheads. Got a new Catfish Rod for Father's Day. But, I am stuck with my GF at a dagblasted Campground. She won't even let me chase a Pike, Muskie, or Bass today. Maybe, I can sneak off & do some night fishing, above a tiny dam? Great bullhead spot. Never fished w Bullheads before. My fishing buddies wanted to fish the big river on Father's Day. She vetoed that. Argh!
Gastonia, NC here. Lots of Bass fishing and Catfishing here. Small ponds are my favorite, Lake Wylie not so much. Wish we could fish together, that would be a Blast. I know some fantastic spots.
Morning coffee Road trip Catfish Dave I'm all in. Nice Fish brother ain't much we do about the dagblasted dogs we are fishing in the south Lol 😂. Much peace and love from northeast Texas.
Glad to have you in NC! 1st thought you might be doing a video with Dieter If ever make it back, might want to try Lake Gaston. The last 3 state record blues are out of there
MAN Dieter sure put on the fish!!!! Hey enjoy your videos other than the barkin 🐕 looked like a good road trip. PEACE OUT And thanks again for your videos and useful information. 🐝😂🐟😂🐝
Monday morning waitin on a furniture repair guy with a 4 hour window.It’s like waiting on the cable guy and Dave helps out with the new video on “THE WAITING, IT’S THE HARDEST PART.”- MR.PETTY MISS YA AND DAVE THANKS FOR THE VIDEO.
Badin Lake and Tuckertown are both in the same general area as Tillery and also offer good fishing. They’re all fairly busy with bass fishing right now.
Dam dave best video in years,,thumbs up for north Carolina

Great video Dave, keep them coming 👍
Thank you Dave

Dog to Dave. " Shut up you dagblasted fisherman"
If I could give a two 👍🏻s up I would. Great job Mr Dave.

I rent a camper out on that lake, I have offered for Dave to stay there to fish Buggs.
Lake Gaston too!
Awesome Dave , I watch you every night after work just love fishing 🎣.
“Wheew, I don’t know where I’m at” boy I have had a lot of good and bad memories with that statement.
As always I enjoyed your video. Great job Dave
That “slab” dig at Dieter had me cracking up. I think I saw you smile a little bit
Wish I meet at the lake love this clips catfish Dave thanks for coming to the Carolina

You forgot Falls reservoir and Blewett Falls. Lol
The next time you come to North Carolina come to high rock lake we have some nice blue too
You caught in a few hours more big fish than I've ever caught in my life..thanks!!
There were 5 different "dagblasteds" in this video, by my count, including dagblasted Rain, Dogs, Cars, Bass Boats and Channel Cats. Best video yet, thanks Dave!
That last fish, glad you got your thrill after driving so far... Best video in a while just stoked for ya bro.
Sure thing the pee dee is full of cats glad to see you in my neck of the woods. Pretty impressive to show up and catch quality fish first time on the lake
I have a dagblasted barking dog, great trip Dave enjoyed coming along, thank you, Jeff in LA USA
Dave, I just came across this video and man its awesome!!. Not only the quality of the catfish you caught but I noticed how relaxed you were. North Carolina is a good get away location for you.

😂😂😂That was some heavy editing done on that last big one that tangled your poles. Wooo you kicked some Carolina ass.
I thought the same thing when it was cut. ;-)
Nice fish Dave!!! That one you had
thought your thumb was bait!!
Far and away to North Carolina went Dave, time and effort gave Dave! let's all give Dave a wave for the great video he gave!🤚
I love this. I live below Tillery and it’s catfish central. Your show style reminds me of bill dance or the outdoor journal style fishing show
Hey Dave excellent video this is in my area where I live now, I’m originally from Texas I know it’s a haul away but if you have go to Texas lake Tawakoni or lake Whitney are great cat-fishing lakes.

Today was definitely your day! Worth the trip for certain. Enjoyed the content will be waiting on your next video!
Thanks Dave!
everytime i go through a tunnel or under a long bridge i lay on the horn. sounds cool. dad taught me that
Dave: I really appreciate how much effort you put into this fishing trip. 👍 I'd love to see you and Dieter Melhorn fishing together. 😃
They're liable to kill each other before the trip was over. Lol
That was well worth your long trip...Great video Dave!
Barkin dogs,bad service, and ugly waitress, that doesn’t sound like a good trip!! At least you caught some fish, way to put in the time!! Keep bringing the vids!!
3rd shift at The Waffle House. That video is planted in my mind.
Awesome trip Dave! Sure was some nice fish. Really enjoyed a catfish Dave road trip with big catfish
Fished Lake Wylie many times.Decent fishery.Welcome to NC catfish Dave. Hope you had a good time.
Always liked fishing tillery and badin lake. Seen some big ones come out of dam at tuckertown too.
Glad you came to visit but Tennessee will always have better catfishing than here 😭 glad you found some to play with you!
I agree..ain't nothing or nowhere like Tennessee. God's country.
I don't know, Kerr lake produced a blue cat over 140 lbs. That's no dink!
