KANSAS RIVER Summer Flathead ( Bowersock Dam 2023 )

- Nick and I (Matt) head back down to Lawrence Kansas on this night in early June 2023 for some early summer catfishing. As we started the night off, we spotted gar swimming openly in the water and that was the only fish biting our live and cut baits this night until about 2 a.m.
Nick had left and at right before 2 a.m. this big flathead catfish smashed my rod and I had to try and film and bring it in... (Which didn't work so well.) The camera tripod fell to the ground and captured just me reeling in the massive fish!!
This was a fun catch and we appreciate the support from our fishing community here in Kansas City!! We hope you are all having a great year fishing and thanks for watching and also interacting with us out there!!

Haven’t watched but 10 seconds of the video and subbed. I support anything Kansas!
Probably in MO! Dammit!😂
Nope
All saw from my notifications at first was "you haven't watched but 10 seconds of the video and su".. Thought you were going to say sucks 😂😆... Which is fine I love everybody and their opinion but I'm so glad you said subbed 😆.
Kansas Fishing Baby!!
@@CatfishKC 😂 great fish brother!! Just watched yer scariest night fishing. Crazy man! Good luck. Stay safe!! Look forward to yer adventures!
I will try to stay as safe as possible. I wouldn't suggest learning as you go on the fly like I did sometimes on the river, but it really does teach you what to do and not do 😂.. Even though the best teacher is time on the river, stay safe as well. I appreciate you commenting and watching man!!
I'm new to big cat fishing. Nice flathead. If you ever need someone to go with you, I'd be willing. Lol
Appreciate it. !! I answered your other question on the other post and thanks for watching!!
@CatfishKC got to support the local guys when I find them.
Nice one!
Thanks!
That was a Hawg brother
Thanks again man!!
Kansas got some big ones talked to guy from there today pretty good convo on catfish
Definitely has some big ones here and possibly some new records
What’s the best place for parking to fish this dam? Thanks
If you're going for this side of the dam, I park next to the hotel in the back, you can look at Google maps and look at the parking lot just past the railroad tracks.
I'm not sure if it's considered a legal place to park but, I've never had any problems and never seen any signs saying not to park there. There are the whole bunch of homeless people that are right there which are cool people, but just letting you know that you might see some things but, I never had my vehicle messed with while I've had it parked there.
you can then take a trail down to a gravel path that will get you to the dam or you can walk down the boardwalk next to the hotel and there are ways to get down to this spot through a couple openings there as well
Anyone knows if the walnut river produces good size fish? By el dorado to be more exact.
I've heard of it but, I'm not 100% sure how the fishing is.
Im from mich mar 18 we are heading to Lawrence kansas for a few days if any one willing to show me a few good spots i would appreciate it
Did you mean May 18?
What time of night was this?
This was right before 2 a.m.
Nice flathead man. When do you normally head out there to Lawrence? Week nights or weekends
Right now we decide where we go kinda on the fly. This was Sunday night/early Monday morning. Hopefully we can start planning better and more consistent
How do you avoid the rock snags on the bottom?! Every cast was a snag for us
Bowersock Dam has claimed many snag victims over the years 😂... What I started doing was when I reel in, I just barely get the line tight and then I lift up and reel in as fast as I can. I barely get snags anymore...
@@CatfishKC found that out the hard way! Appreciate the advice my man!!
Anytime. That Dam has lost me so much tackle. Good luck!!
what rods are those you guys got
The red ones are Tangling With Catfish rods monster edition. And the white pole I believe is just a Bass Pro Combo that was fairly cheap. You always gotta have a cheap rod in the water next to the expensive ones bc you always get bites on the cheap pole 😂
Can I go fishing with you im so serious
Hey man. sorry it took a while to get back to you. I've had a lot of family issues but we'll figure out something sometime possibly. hope you're doing good
