    In this video, I show you how to fish for catfish on the Ohio River, I show you the easiest and most simplistic way of catching catfish and anyone can do it PLUS I try this new preserved catfish bait from "Dark Water Premium Baits" made from Asian carp. I have a strict rule, IF I won't USE IT I won't TRY TO SELL IT. This bait works as you can see in the video.

    Steve I met you at the Catfish Conference in Louisville this past year. You inspired me with your success in losing weight. I was 340 then and not feeling well most of the time. I am now down to 290 on my way to 250. I feel so much better now. Thank you

    Always a pleasure to go fishing with you Steve. I have used fresh Asian Carp as bait in the past and always done well with it. Yours has the advantage of not needing refrigeration and great for those spur of the moment trips. Tight lines

I would catch some if I knew where to go to get them. Great video. Thanks. You look great and you seem to be having more fun doin what youre doing. PS Ordered 3 package late in the day and got it in 3 days. (29th). Thanks. rb

    Another great video Mr. Douglas! I can't wait until I buy my first boat so I can try drifting for catfish. When I was younger my grandpa would take me out on his boat and he would love drifting baits for catfish, I think he used drift socks or something like that but we would always catch a ton on catfish. Good memories and thanks again for sharing Mr. Douglas!

    Steve I have fished with these for two years in the IL river. Great bait and super available! The difference is the Ohio and TN have quality fish......Illinois has unfortunately silted in to some extent. Ten pound channel are awesome, fifteen pound flats. Wish you could train some blues to head our way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @yaboytroycatfishing
    @yaboytroycatfishing Год назад

    Steve a barge bait is easy to explain. The barges sit so low in the water that as they move it causes alot of vibration witch in turn causes the fish to move from it's path and if there is a fish near you bite it will grab it on the run.

  • @pamelahewett4768

Over the last year I put 13 lbs back on at the insistence of my doctor.. I was 49 yo when I started, I'm 62 now. Holding steady at 138 lbs. Keep up the good work and videos.

    Hello Steve. I'm heading toward Altoona from near Boston on my way to West Virginia strictly for catfish. I've done as much research as possible from as possible from 700 or 800 Miles away. I know I can fish Stonewall Jackson , Bluestone lake, As well as the Kanawha River But how about throwing a guy a bone. Without being a spot burner can you give a guy a couple of hints on where shore access can be found. I'm not looking for one of your UDLs. Back home that stands for undisclosed location. If you were in my shoes What 20 miles of river would you try to fish? If you have nothing to share don't worry it's all good.
