Great job, big cats will always make me nervous to
Hey I appreciate you watching
It's nice to see some Scioto action. I grew up fishing Scioto River around South of Chillicothe to Circleville area. My biggest flathead from the Scioto has been 51lbs. But unfortunately we had a problem with people limblining them out and illegally selling to paylakes so we dont see the giants up here anymore and the blues dont make it up this far from the Ohio. I did catch a 22lb blue south of here near Piketon however. Those were some nice flattys you caught!! Keep up the good work. I really enjoy your channel buddy
51Ib flathead is a dang nice fish for the scioto river I’ve always been told there 60 and 70pounders in the Scioto it’s deep enough in spots for them and yea I’ve had other people say the blues don’t go very far north my biggest blue out of Scioto is 45Ibs it was a beast and Yano most blues don’t get length to then there real short and fat but this one was fat and had a lot of length to it I’d say it was close to 50inchs I never measured it but I weighed it and it was dead on 45Ibs and hey I appreciate you checking my channel out and watching my videos
Enjoyed your video buddy.I love fishing the Sciota River when ever i get a chance.
Hey i appreciate you watching and yea I fish the scioto a lot I’m usually out once to twice a week this years been at a good start so far haven’t caught anymore bluecats yet there on spawn right now there prolly some that haven’t spawned yet but the big females most likely already spawning I guess just never know about them I also heard people say the spawn started early this year but I have caught some this month and April
Try fishing with some 6 to 8 inch Crappy. Best bait I've come across here in Kansas. Fish on brother, God bless.
I don’t think your aloud to fish with crappie in Ohio me personally I don’t use game fish as bait but ik the regulations are different in other states not sure on Ohio though but bluegills and sunfish are really good live bait up here
im new to your channel but really enjoyed the video. love them flatheads we dont have them here in new jersey. Gdluck next outing and we will be watching. F4C nation out..
Thanks for checking the channel out and watching my videos I appreciate it

Hey thanks for watching and oh okay I like fishing the Ohio river but I don’t have a boat to go out and hit the deep holes don’t know very many bank spots on the Ohio yet but I have looked around for access
hey man i love your videos keep it up i hope you channel continues to grow
Hey I appreciate it and thanks for watching
That gar fin slapped you like Orphan Annie!
Yea it did I’ve never had one do that they don’t like being picked up that’s for sure the bigger ones are more difficult to handle sometimes
@@FirstCastAngling I know. Had one try to bite my show when I laid it on the ground
shoe
Dang that’s a nice fish!
Yea it was a fun fight that’s for sure thanks for watching
I grew up in pickaway county Ohio and fish the scioto River all the time
Yea I like fishing the scioto river that’s for sure u gotta move around a lot though on this river to find the fish sometimes your luck out on a hole with a decent amount of catfish in it just never know
Enjoyed the content brother. Fellow Buckeye. New sub. Keep L.I.V.I.N
Hey man thanks for watching and subscribe I appreciate it and same to you
Good stuff bro. Good fish
Thank ya
I like the 20+ minute video
Hey thanks for watching I appreciate it
@@FirstCastAngling anytime I’m about to get ready to start my own little fishing channel myself
A long time ago I learned that a big flathead will let you take line back in the reel when he feels like it. The upriver charge in some cases is the tiering out period. Other times it is just to strip all the line from your reel, (even 80 lb braid with 24lbs of drag) pop the knot and not even wave good bye. That is the reason i upgraded gear, line and hooks. 100 to 120 lb braid with 32 to 44 lbs of drag and i finally got to see what was wreaking the lighter gear. I didnt have a scale but he was big enough to eat 20 to 30lb blues or flats. He hit a carp that was 4 to 6lb range. It felt more like hooking a ford ranger than a fish. Keep up the scouting and try large chunks of beef liver and the huge leaches with the stripes down the side. Flathead love them!
Heck yea man and I’ve heard leaches are good catfish bait but never tried them I appreciate you checking the video out
❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching
Nice fish there, keep it going.
Thank ya and I plan on going back out tomorrow thanks for watching
I'm close close to the Scioto river
I caught a 30 last year on the river myself and a 20lb blue scioto river is my favorite place to fish
Good deal man and yea I enjoy the scioto I don’t have a Kayak or boat yet but definitely gonna get one for the scioto for sure it’s hard to bank fish anymore but luckily I have a few spots I have permission to fish from the land owners but definitely hard to bank fish now days on this river
Good deal on that Flathead, awesome bud! Those ones in the thirties don’t come along too often, especially in a river. 🤙🏻🤙🏻✌🏻
Hey man thanks I appreciate you watching and know they don’t come by very often but when they do you for sure get fired up about it.
@@FirstCastAngling - yeah man, for sure about that! And no problem bud! 👍👍🤙🏻✌🏻
On the circle hooks just a good pull or winding the reel will set the hook
Well I’ll be honest with ya I’ve seen a lot of people miss fish on circle hooks by reeling down on em when your running a lot of drag it’s a lot better to set the hook a lil even if they do it for ya I’ve used circle hooks for years and never missed a fish for doing that so that’s why I do that you’ll miss fish a lot if u reel down on em not always but sometimes
I've used this method, I don't think your wrong, but I'm gonna make sure I got him hooked good, no sense in popping the hook out of a 70lb cats mouth just because I didn't give an extra tug up ya know
@@FirstCastAnglingcircle hooks has its moments I learned early on not to set the same a regular hook, I even tried them on a trot line and got skunked I took em all off and went to regular hooks and done better.. lesson learned
Scioto river…. Definitely looks like southern Ohio area. I’m in Ross county and fish the Scioto
The scioto has big ass cats, the guy who does these videos got a 45lb blue cat last year out of it. I live down wheelersburg near Greenup dam and I don't see near as much action with cats
Yea I’m south man and nice man I’ve fished up that way years ago around the Walmart area
Good fish rite there 🤙
Yea nice to catch a flathead that size during the day
@@FirstCastAngling I struggle with day time flathead fishing.
Been watching your videos man, killer cat 🍻
Hey I appreciate that man and yea it was a nice one thank ya for checking my videos out
Nice 32 pounder. I'd never be able to reel that one in.
Thank ya
GOOD CATCH!
Thank ya
From 100 to over 500 subs! Man you're gonna make it! Awesome catch!
Hey I appreciate it and thanks for checking my channel out man
What part of Scioto river you hitting. I fish it a ton.
I fish the southern part mostly people call it the bottoms where it meets the Ohio river if u can get into the fields to fish the bank I have permission to fish all the places I fish whenever I get a boat prolly use it on the scioto
I would love to plan a trip. I myself do RUclips and tictok.
New to your channel so been great. Keep on keepin on bud 🤙
Hey thanks for watching and checking my channel out greatly appreciated man
Nice Flathead! nice editing. needs camera skills worked on. I subscribed keep up the good videos.
Hey thanks for the sub and watching
Biggest one I caught in the river was 120 po flat head Chillicothe 1972
Shew that’s a dang good fish for the scioto I’ve always heard there’s 60s and 70s in the scioto
Pretty sure the biggest flathead caught in ohio is 76lbs
just grab the flathead without gloves.... the scrapes will be a happy reminder of what you caught...
Yea if that isn’t the truth had some wounds over there years doing that yano the bigger ones aren’t as bad them smaller ones there get you if ya don’t watch
You ever tried using that caterpillar on your lip as bait???
Know I can’t say I have man
What kind of reels do you use and what kind of rods do you use?
Reels are Abu Garcia and the rods I can’t remember of top of my head I had another guy ask the same thing I’m gonna have to do a rig rundown ik the rods are very stout the black pole is only a 6.6ft rod but it is strong I’ve used it and the orange one for years I plan on changing the gear in the future though I’ve been looking at the hellcat rods and okuma komodo ss reels I like the Ambassadeur reels but my one Abu reel is a low profile reel and I have been quite a fan lately on how it handles these catfish
What county was your last video in. I saw that water tower in the back ground and the rocks on the bank doesn't look familiar. I live in Ross. Just curious. Good videos.
Idk what you mean water tower lol and I’m from pike county
What part of the scioto are you at?
I fish southern end of scioto mostly I’ve never fished past Chillicothe area
Any time your line sounds like a guitar its a biggun
Man i thought it sounded like a ukulele my reel handle wouldn’t engage then it finally fixed itself I was just stoked about how big the catfish was man
@@FirstCastAngling I seen that i screamed engage Bessie and it popped in gear 🤣🤣 that was a great fish I'll get one that size oneday
@@BigBoyBeFishing his PB was a 45lb blue and that one was wild looking, I'm looking to get one like that this year 🤣
@@_Nomad_0 we'll get it soon
Is that a black max reel your using?
Yea it’s a black max reel really good reel never have any problems out of it and it cast far to it’s got 30Ib braid main line and 30Ib mono liter line holds up really well I also use it for musky fishing it’s not setup for that atm cause I’ve been catfishing a lot with it
Was that a spotted gar?
Yea I believe so it had spots on it but Yano when I catch ‘em I call em all longnose gar always have but ik there is a difference in them that one was definitely smallest gar I ever caught last year I caught a 40 to 45inch gar and it fought like a freight train
how deep is that water
I’m not to sure it’s gotta be at least 10 foot in spots maybe more usually the channels are very deep just depends on how the current pushes all the sand and silt out yano
Fun to catch, But taste like shit too eat.
Catfish or Gar
