Summer Time Flathead CATCH AND COOK!!! (GIANT FISH!)

  • Опубликовано: 5 июл 2020
  • It's a pretty special deal to be out on the water and make a meal from a fish you caught and landed. I mean they taste good no matter where ya eat 'em, but I think the best spice you can add is from cooking 'em up at the water's edge! As far as conservation goes, I recommend ya keep the smaller ones and let the big ones go for a variety of reasons.
    1. Most small fish never live long enough to get big (they die from disease, stressful water temps or levels, predation by other fish, human impacts like chemical spills, etc)
    2. Small fish make up a significantly larger portion of the population.
    3. I let the large fish go because statistically, they have a much higher likelihood of reaching even larger sizes considering the odds they have already overcome.
    4. I think about all the nights I didn't catch a big fish, and each one I keep makes it just a little bit harder next time.
    5. They take a long time to grow, especially up north. If I knife a 40 lber, it could take 2-3 DECADES for that fish to be replaced. I'll be 50-60 years old by then.
    Honestly though, that's what I do and why I do it. If you keep a fish that's legal to keep, good for you. Complaining about someone following the law would be like me complaining about someone for driving the speed limit and wearing a seatbelt. Good luck on the water, for real. And if ya get a giant, think about letting them go.

    I’m almost certain that’s the first flathead I’ve ever seen you harvest. I figured you didn’t do it. I don’t harvest many fish, but when I do it’s usually a flattie under 5 lbs. They’re definitely the best tasting!

    Good advice with letting em go. Another reason to let them go is that small fish are much lower on the food chain, so It is much more efficient because less energy gets lost in transmission from sun to plant to baitfish to your dinner.

    What's up Spence!! Fellow River Rat and avid Catfish Slayer. I was wondering if you could take some time to possibly answer a few questions about fishing for Kitties. First I'd like to say awesome channel your videos have me cracking up laughing all the time. The added subtitles and random stuff you say during your videos are a classic. Now to the fishing questions. First what would you recommend when fishing for Flatheads/ Shovelheads as far as the best times to fish for them as well as some live baits that tend to work the best? Second question is what gear should one use to land the Big kitties like the hook size, the LB line you use, float or bottom rigging, Rod Length, and the style Reel that should be used whether that be Spinning or Bait caster? Third and final question is when do feel like the best time to fish for catfish from Channel to Flathead and Blue? Thanks for making such entertaining videos and taking the time to respond to each of your comments on every video. I look forward to hearing back from you and the suggestions you have for catching more Catfish or Landing that One Big kittie.

    Out of all the Catfish species, I think flatheads are best tasting ones, I really never cared about channel cats, to eat that is, they just never tasted that good to me, no matter what body Of water they come out of. Even the farm raised channels ain’t no count, now Blues, I haven’t eat too many of them, if any at all, at least I don’t recall. Now Bullheads are pretty tasty! Their almost as good as a Flathead. A Flathead has that real nice white flaky meat, kinda like a Bass ( Black Bass or largemouth). Anyways, good deal Spence! Keep on keeping on brother man! Man that last one you caught here, he was full of piss and vinegar wasn’t he?! lol! Damn I see why, nice, real nice!

I have done a lot of fishing in Minnesota. Nowadays I prefer catfish and stripper fishing. Out here in CA. where I live almost all, we have here is trout. I grew up on the beaches of Southern California and grew up fishing in the ocean. Now I live in the Lake Tahoe area of Northeastern CA. high in the mountains. We have cats and strippers in the lower elevations but the crowds are a problem. Thanks for your outstanding content. You totally know how to fish and make videos!!

    Recently, Watched a number of your vids and see the rivers filled with wood, some huge piles and some huge trees yet , often the river banks seem barren. Did all the trees wash away?

    Why do you use J hooks instead of circles? I only ask because I’m thinking about switching to Js because I have been losing fish.

    Excellent video. One perfect eater and 2 to me anyway Monsters. Love the Catch and Cooks. So I have a question for you Spenser. As a Illinois Chicago Boy I somehow got conned (important word) into Wrestling for a year, which was for me the worst year of my life. U won a few times but lost many more and the weight thing, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Dinners and the after fun with"Practice" other important word was inhuman.Trying to stay at 175 was nuts. Never went back again. All that for were you an H.S. Wrestler? To me looks like you have the Mushroom ears of someone who was in the sport for a while. If something else forgive me, I know it's a big deal here in Iowa.

    Mercy that thing was huge. Question, and tell me if I'm being a Gina but I've always been told that flatheads taste muddy unless you soak them in sprite first. Is that true and you're just used to it, or am I totally wrong?
