    I love that you mentioned Buck Perry back in the mid 70s a fishing buddy and I started reading Bucks main book and worked on catching his way.
    Great fun

    This was fantastic. I've been thinking that I should set up an ultra-light rig and have it in my arsenal at all times for when the bite is slow. This was exactly what I needed to see to make up my mind. Nicely done, Justin!

      Today was my first outing with my ultra light rig, very similar to what you are running in this video (2lb test, gulp minnows, trout jig head). It made for a great day. The bass weren't biting, but my new rig was slaying the blue gills and crappie. Super fun! Thanks again for the great info and video!

    Fishing with 2 Lb test is living on the edge.......😁 But you can land a large fish with it though. I landed a 19 Lb Carp while fishing for Crappie with a 1/64 ounce jig on 8 Lb test, it's all in the drag and a properly tied knot. Fishing with an ultralight reel and light line is a lot of fun and hearing that drag squeal is an added bonus. Thanks for sharing the video.

    Just got my first kayak about 3 weeks ago. Definitely intend to set up for primarily catfish, but have been anxious to pull in ANYTHING as my first catch in the boat! I watched this video Tuesday, went down to the local private pond that evening with a similar minniw-tyoe jig and promptly pulled in my first fish in the yak! (A disappointingly small bluegill, but a fish nonetheless). Needless to say I'm now a subscriber! Thanks for your videos

    I agree it's loads of fun.
    Back in my early days I remember using live bait. Just thinking how much time spent baiting up maybe 20seconds per cast and going through 2 or 3 dz min. Add up the time. More time baiting than fishing.

    I'm a big fan of TroutMagnetMan's channel. Have you ever tried the Crappie magnet lures and jigs? They are slightly bigger than the trout magnet lures so they seem to cut out all the tiny little fish that hit the regular trout magnet. If not, might want to give them a try at some point. They make the shad dart jigs for crappie magnet lures too.

Also spent one night crappie fishing with minnows and 4 and 6 lb mono side by side and the 4 lb did much better. Never tried 2 lb but guess will have to. You convinced me.

    When I was about 25, my mom asked me why I never brought home monster fish. I told her because I knew she loved big perch, so I would catch about 50 or so, and give them to needy family's on my way home. By the time I got home, I would have about 10 left. And had already given the bigger fish away. I fished 3 or 5 times a week at that time.

    Very nice video. I swear you went to film school. So you can't use that in muddy water? What about brighter colors? I can't wait to get my new spinning rod. Mine broke before I moved, trying to get some fishing in. Now I need to order another one. Lol. I need to make a library of your videos they are so informative and fun to watch. They should puck you up on an outdoor channel.

    • @KayakCatfish
      @KayakCatfish  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks Matthew! You can use brighter colors in muddy water. I keep some chartreuse for dirty water. Once it turns to chocolate milk color though this technique isn’t very useful.

    Ahhhh man.... I’ve heard from a guy at work that Melton hill dam is a great place to fish. We should camp at that camp ground and you could teach me how to fish. lol. Okay.... you showed me with that nice small mouth. I’m liking that 2lb test line.
    Hahahahahaha... that little baby bass looks like the ones I catch. Lol. They are still fun to catch.

    • @KayakCatfish
      @KayakCatfish  6 лет назад

      I live just a few minutes from there. It’s a nice campground but it stays pretty crowded. I imagine it fishes a lot like Norris since they both have crystal clear water. You would probably lose the rest of your stickers off your kayak if you drove that far to come down here lol.

    Do you have catfish bobbers? If you do could you do a video in that spot or any spot? If not I got a buddy who sells catfishing gear for awesome prices. Dales home made tackle. Check em out and tell him I sent you and you should get free shipping.

    • @KayakCatfish
      @KayakCatfish  6 лет назад

      I may do a video in the future if I am catching some good fish while using them. I basically just took the biggest slip float I could find and glued it inside a piece of pool noodle. Works great and was cheap to make.

      No, I never do any catfishing on Melton Hill although I probably will this year just for RUclips material. It just doesn’t hold the same population of trophy cats that we have access to on Fort Loudoun and Watts Bar.

    A day on the river using only two pound line.The fish were a biting and everything was fine.Then he heard someone yelling, coming around the river bend.He saw it was Panfish Bill ,and feared it was his end.What are you doing here,your fishing in my spot.Justin hung his head in shame, knowing he,d been caught.He thought real quick and answered Bill with a very witty reply.I was hoping that I meet you here,but that was a big fat lie.Why would you want to see me ,this is my spot you must surely know.Justin replied I need some pointer,s and trick,s ,that only you could show.So Panfish Bill smiled, and replied in a voice so sweet.Said, it surely must have been fate that our path,s today should meet.So Panfish Bill took him under his wing and taught him all he knew.Now Justin cant wait to try out his tactic,s,and catch a state record blue..............................No charge for this Justin................Your the gulp minnow champion hand,s down.
