The TRUTH About Eating Stocked Catfish...
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- The urban pond catfish stock is on here in AZ! There is catfish being stocked just about every week here in the community ponds. These fish can be super tasty if cooked properly, and man are they fun to catch!
Today we fish with worms and some stryker punch bait at one of my local ponds! We had some success catching and cooking one of these catfish!
Catch and cooks are something I have to do every once in a while! These stocked catfish have a very good taste, and man are they misunderstood. Wild catfish taste rather muddy but these fish taste more like ocean white meat fish!
Let me know what you all wanna see next!

I have been watching this guy for two years and I can’t stop watching his videos
@@Kagej9 my man I appreciate the support!
You are very right, about fish being left over after stocking. I remember one time, I fished the day a trout derby was over, and caught over 12 nice size trouts. That day was insane since I thought everybody fished them out.
Oh heck yea! There will always be some left 🔥🔥
Thanks for another great time at the pond. Be blessed. My friend.
Not a problem! Thanks for the support as always 🔥🔥
I'm never disappointed with your videos I'm always satisfied with the fishing you do
Thank you!
Arizona should use you, and this video as a PSA😅😅😅😅😅😅! You did FANTASTIC 😊😊
lol 😂 thank you 🙏🏼
At our lakes they stock with Mt Lassen Trout & Imperial catfish. They are Farm raised so they are very good to eat. We just went Trout fishing & caught 32 Trout. We kept 6 to eat. The meat in those trout were pink almost like salmon. Talk about delicious fish tacos. Any farm raised fish are quality clean & edible. Great catch & cook video! And congratulations on your son & looking forward to him fishing with you. 😉👍
Agreed man! All those farms raised fish are awesome. I miss me some lassen trout
Great video.... Have you ever did a video showing all the ponds in the Phoenix area, like a map and what fish are in each pond??
Again thanks for your videos.
thanks! I have not done that and i don't think i would. It would drive some massive pressure
@@TheFishinMagician20I feel like you should mention like the town you are in still rather than gatekeeping. I get that’s what fisherman do and we have to hunt but there’s loads of new fisherman rising up that have no idea where to go especially in AZ. We need the guidance.
Can you use a circle hook with maybe a sponge on it. That would help you with the hookup rate and less damage to the fish plus a better hookup rate.
People do the spawn sac with the Stryker in there with a circle, but tbh the bite wasn’t aggressive enough for circle hooks to work properly this day
Hey, you inspire me to never give up on catfishing
Love to hear it! Awesome 👏🏼
First and congrats on ur son!🎉
Thank you! I’m so excited
Stocked catfishing is my my second favorite type of fishing, only second to trout fishing. I equally love to eat both though! Congratulations on that albino Brotha! Very nice catch and cook. 💪🏽🤙🏽
I feel you on that trout fishing is awesome. Thanks man! They are both tasty forsure 🔥
I caught an albino catfish once in a local lake a long time ago. Really pretty-was white with a pinkish/orange hue and same for the eyes. Really trippy lookin’. Keep catching and keep quelling people’s fears of eating them. They’re fine!
Awesome! Yea I’m sure they’re great to eat
@@TheFishinMagician20 i just meant eating catfish from the local ponds, in general. Not eating the albinos. But you could be right. What if albinos are especially delicious?🧐
What a fire video bro 🔥
Thanks man 🙌🏼
Heck yeah Mark. You know I love me some catfish 😎
Oh yea Mike! When I come back to the east coast we gotta see what you can do in the kitchen with some channel cats 🔥
Wow dude I cant believe the albino catch! What a treat!!
I have never caught a albino catfish or any kind of albino fish but I have been with one of my cousins and he called an albino catfish and it was awesome just seeing it and I want to catch one so bad and maybe one day I will good job on the bonus fish the albino catfish
One day you will! Thank you
Bro where can I get the catfish fever rod?
literally down the street from my house
Amazing, i've learned so much watching your videos🔥
I am happy to hear it that’s always my goal 👏🏼👏🏼
Wish they stock the lakes in Oklahoma like that too many people and not enough places to fish
Dann̈y KING PUNCH BAIT IS rthe best
Just a tip when fileting and skinning the fish. Leave the filet attached at the tail flip the filet over and skin the filet while it is still attached. It gives you a anchor point cheers
That albino was sick! Can't go wrong with the Louisiana mix!
You know it man 🔥
I’m not a big fish eater but those nuggies look fire 🔥
🙌🏼🙌🏼
lol I held my first catfish ever today you can see it on my channel and one was 8-9 pounds!
Awesome!
A month ago my cousin caught an albino big mouth bass
Nice!
Great video. Thanks for the tips
Sick video! I live in the area but haven't come across this lake. Wheres it at?
I'm pretty sure it's kawanas park
What he said ☝🏼
@@kannibiz thank you! 🙏
Do you or anyone know of the canals near sunnyslope hand fish in them? You posted a video a while back showing them taking the fish out . Also what the heck is with roadrunner park? Any news when they will reopen it?
No clue about either of those
I have fished that Urban lake for almost 20 years.
Awesome! Its a good one and close to my house
@TheFishinMagician20 I know the secrets to Kawanis lake. I was one of the ones that put the structure in 6 years ago.
Wowww the albini at the end
Right?! Hyyyyype
What up Bro. Yup, I gotta get out there!!! Going tomorrow. Good luck man. Bless!
Heck yea good luck!
Where are the ponds located?
Yes right before you put up the 15 minutes I know where you said it was been setting for 15 minutes right before that it bounced
I saw that after editing haha
I'm from ohio and we got all kinds of channel and flathead catfish in our creeks and resevoirs my pb channel is 23lbs and my pb flathead is 45lbs
That’s awesome
Where is this???
what size hooks would you recommend for canal cats? 2/0 liver or size 4-6 trebble hook and stinkbait?
both
Nice Video do you mostly fish the east valley?
Yessir
I love your canle fishing
It’s fun! Thank you
What's your email?
Finally they restocked bass in there
I know right!
What’s the truth about them?
I’ve caught a five pound albino blue cat and a pound albino channel in nm
So dope
Make a video on how to clean the catfish
Nah it’s been done too many times. Plenty out there
I went there last week and didn’t get any bites must’ve stocked after
un bagre Shiny al final del video
Do the canal fish have a better taste than pond fish?
I do t really eat an anal fish in Phoenix. But the pond ones are super clean as long as you eat them fresh stocked
Hey! Love you content but i have a question. Is there any advantage or reason to keep the fish alive while fileting it? Seems like unnecessary suffering to me.
The fish was dead just nerves. It was dispatched with my mallet a minute before
Where you fish would like my kids to catch. I have not fished fresh water in a long time
All the urban ponds are stocked with catfish any do good for kids
Farm raised fish are higher in mercury.
They’re regulated in the U.S. to have low toxin levels. Very low in mercury.
At 3:48 it looked like there was two hits
I saw that, insane it never moved after that lol
Where are you fishing at. That little lake looks familiar
Tempe
@@TheFishinMagician20 Kiwanis?
The truth is that catfish taste goood
Facts
What type of AERATOR do you use with minnow bucket? From Houston TX
I think it’s just the bubbles model, the little bubbles were not enough
I bought a rechargeable one off Amazon it has a pulse setting it lasted well over 24 hours on pulse and minnows were lively
@@jerryscray1789
I'm going to look at different models. I don't know which one you got, but I will try to find the one with pulse like your's. I need one to use when I get in my vehicle to go from one place to the next. 275 miles is the trip.

What size treble do you use for punch bait?
Size 4
Quit giving away the secret of how good they taste. Keep it between you and me 😊
lol 😂
What pond is this?
You need some bells for the rods
Nah I can’t stand bells
I feel you but when you busy setting up or away they help
Oooooh I hope its not bad. I have eaten Az stocked catfish.
They’re awesome I love eating them
Im fishing rn
Heck yea!
I’m a fan of whole simmered catfish, gives a lot more meat 🐟
Heck yea!
They're gonna be stocking 300 lbs per lake now
Say whatttt that’s awesome
@@TheFishinMagician20 no that's horrible, they usually stock 1000 lbs
kiwanis park?
Yessir
Puro comando exclusivo alv❤
Do you throw that grease in the trash too?
Nah lol poured in the dirt

@@arizonaarcher9323 lol 😂
Nice food catching. I think a few ducks went missing around the same time. Do you like eating duck with your catfish? Before everyone gets mad, it’s a joke. All the ducks went missing. 😂😂
I love the PETA content, keep it up. Yum.
Hahahaha hey man duck is tasty😂
nice
Too bad you don’t have a tik tok account and go live when you go fishing
I used to go live a few years ago on RUclips before tiktok lives were a thing. Now everyone does it haha. Lives are fun but man they get exhausting
I hope you understand it isn’t very smart to have hot oil in a pan while sitting down cooking! What if the pan fell. Hot oil all over your cahoonas and legs! Great way to give your skin a golden brown..
I don't live my life on what ifs 😅
Secret-7 is better than Stryker. Stryker's got weird fur and pieces of animal parts but Secret-7 is nice and pasty like well chewed digested taco bell.
I have never tried it but I may have to give it a try
Use a fork to hold the skin down
I feel like the fish in those ponds don’t really taste that good because of all the trash that gets thrown in there
You’d think but as long as you catch those fish within 1-2 weeks, they really don’t have time to soak up and chemicals or trash in the water. They’re still tasting like they were in the hatchery
Not only that but the water is not cold enough year round to keep the meat firm, It's to soft and mushy.
Yeah you're right. Don't eat them. Leave them for me 😅
No such thing as stocking bass is illegal
All I could see was the third degree burns on your legs when the skillet falls off the camp stove! Be careful, dude!
Hahaha nah we were nice and solid
Dude you are brave to sit that close to a pan full of oil right over your….lap….on a stove that small.
I like to live on the edge

Repent of your sins and believe in Jesus
Some consider catfish a trash fish but I wouldn't go that far pal. Take it easy 😂.
@highthai7 That is my bad I just type this on videos I remember to but I wasn't calling catfish that bad lol it had nothing to do with the video.
Sin isn't real.
What does this have to do with fishing??
Lol
See man why did you filet the fish while he was still breathing thats so messed up :(
He wasn’t dead lol just couldn’t show the killing on RUclips
Dude, cleaning fish on picnic tables that people use to eat off? C'mon bro, thats the kinda stuff that gives fisherman a bad name.
I think people know better than to eat off these table that are dirty and covered in bird poop. That’s why I used the cutting board, then rinsed the fish afterwards.
Fishing stocked ponds is ignorant Takes no skill. Just go to the grocery store…..
Thanks for watching 🔥

You know it 🙏🏼
