i really like it when i can grab a bag
00:02
of catfish bait
00:03
and go fishing at a local pond that was
00:05
just recently stocked
00:07
and this is thanks to one of you i got
00:09
an email today
00:10
saying that they did the kids rodeo here
00:13
at this pond and had recently stocked it
00:15
with catfish
00:16
farm-raised channel catfish and in fact
00:20
let me read a piece of this email my son
00:23
fished the rodeo this weekend and
00:25
hammered them
00:26
on the now youtube popular strawberry
00:29
jello chicken
00:30
i don’t know if i’ve actually used
00:32
strawberry jello chicken here before but
00:34
i do know that i’ve used chicken liver
00:35
before
00:36
i think it was marinated in strawberry
00:39
jello
00:39
i really don’t remember but today
00:43
i’m going to put team catfish fiber
00:46
nuggets up against
00:47
catfish probate again this is going to
00:50
be a rematch of these two baits
00:52
to see which one will catch more
00:54
farm-raised channel cats
00:57
and maybe this will come out as a good
00:59
thumbnail too
01:02
but i’m gonna get these in the water and
01:05
see what i catch
01:08
i just about set these up for carp too
01:11
until they sent me the email telling me
01:13
that they filled this up with
01:14
channel cats i’m going to hook both
01:17
baits similar
01:20
just put it you know right through
01:23
the bait with the hook exposed this is
01:26
the team catfish fiber nugget right here
01:29
i’m going to use the park bench as a rod
01:38
holder
01:44
i hear a lot of boats on the lake and
01:46
there’s a lot of people here at the park
01:49
which is kind of normal for this time of
01:52
year
01:53
normal is good after last year
02:03
catfish probate
02:17
i think the last time i was here one of
02:19
these little guys almost pulled one of
02:21
my rods into the water
02:23
i probably should have brought some rod
02:24
holders but hey
02:26
i’m going to use what i got here
02:42
oh
02:46
of course you’re going to be the team
02:47
catfish first
03:16
laughs
03:20
scaring other fish in the area
03:40
nice channel cat
03:46
the team catfish double action circle
03:48
hook has them pretty good
03:52
it’s right on the lip
03:55
i was really hoping to get one on the
03:57
catfish probate
03:59
but as usual team catfish fiber nuggets
04:04
nice channel cat farm raised channel cat
04:14
this is one i would take home and fillet
04:16
up and maybe eat
04:18
but i’m gonna put him back in the water
04:20
it’s gonna be a lot of reflection on the
04:22
water because the sun
04:23
where it’s at and let this guy go
04:26
maybe he’ll grow up get a couple more
04:28
pounds on him
04:34
i will say this you know the team
04:37
catfish fiber nuggets
04:38
it’s a doe bait and that’s kind of what
04:42
these farm-raised channel catfish what
04:45
they grow up on
04:47
it’s usually a crushed fish meal
04:50
where they add like flour and stuff to
04:52
it to keep it together
04:55
so would i feed my goldfish
04:59
and you can see there’s a lot of powder
05:02
on this bait
05:04
a very doughy bait
05:31
i’ll go ahead and reel this up and check
05:32
this bait
05:35
should still be on the hook i haven’t
05:36
even got a single hit with it
05:39
and there’s a dip there
05:56
still on the hook
05:59
it’s like a piece of cheese hasn’t
06:01
dissolved at all
06:17
already got another one
06:22
i haven’t even gotten this one out yet
06:32
wow
06:34
this one’s a fighter
06:57
i tried throwing this one where i threw
06:59
this one
07:00
so it’s close to the fish if they’re
07:02
gathered in that spot
07:14
oh he swallowed it a little bit
07:18
i’m gonna have to do some surgery on
07:20
this catfish
07:22
it’s on his tongue
07:27
well it’s in there too deep can’t get it
07:30
out
07:31
it will rust out after a couple of weeks
07:34
and the fish might spit it out in the
07:36
next couple of days
07:37
but another one on the team catfish
07:40
fiber nuggets
07:42
really really fast
07:45
let’s let this guy go
07:48
i’m trying to be really really careful
07:50
handling these
07:52
their fins are super sharp
07:58
can’t really see them swim off either
08:02
thankfully i have one pretty snails
08:03
right here
08:05
and maybe while i’m rigging this the
08:08
catfish will eat the cheese one maybe
08:13
wow that is a really short leader
08:20
show you guys this real quick that’s a
08:23
team
08:23
catfish double action circle hook i’ve
08:25
got it snelled to maybe 12 pound
08:28
line and a barrel swivel
08:32
and when the swivel is connected i’ve
08:34
got a one ounce no roll sinker
08:36
and a little bead to protect the swivel
08:38
knot
08:40
real simple setup well no bites while
08:43
rigging this
08:45
another nugget
09:04
i’m actually using my tackle bag to hold
09:07
down the rods
09:08
so the fish don’t take them
09:11
even though they’re small they could
09:13
still pull the rod into the water
09:16
so i was like i’m running here to fish
09:35
hoping to get a train bite there oh
09:39
spoke too soon didn’t i
09:42
on the team catfish fiber nuggets again
09:59
this would be one heck of a fish fry if
10:01
i was keeping them
10:18
i really wish i could get at least one
10:20
on the
10:22
on the cheese bait on the catfish
10:24
probate
10:26
but the team catfish is just out fishing
10:28
it
10:30
the hook got this guy in the corner of
10:32
the mouth that’s good
10:35
i don’t think i have any more hooks with
10:37
me so hopefully
10:40
another one won’t swallow it
10:43
that was an easy unhook a lot of algae
10:47
in this pond too
10:50
this is a smaller one cattle cat
10:56
[Laughter]
10:59
now i am on the team catfish promotional
11:01
staff and that wasn’t by my own doing
11:03
it was basically an honorary position
11:06
because i use team catfish stuff all the
11:07
time
11:08
and even though the team catfish fiber
11:10
nuggets are out fishing the catfish
11:12
probate i really really wish the catfish
11:14
probate would at least get one
11:15
fish in fact i’m going to throw this guy
11:18
back
11:19
and i’m going to put another catfish
11:22
probate
11:22
out with this catfish probate one of
11:25
these should get a catfish
11:36
hopefully there get me one before it
11:38
gets too dark
11:40
to film since the fiber nuggets is
11:44
whooping the
11:45
catfish pro’s butt let’s put two catfish
11:48
probates out
12:08
there’s an absolutely giant goldfish in
12:11
the corner over there
12:17
he’s swimming away so i won’t be able to
12:19
film him
12:21
i’ve heard there’s big carp in this pond
12:24
i might try for them again someday
12:26
last time i went fishing here i only
12:28
caught like a little bitty carp
12:33
that was the goldfish
12:38
maybe the goldfish will eat the cheese
12:40
bait that would be really cool
12:43
just really quick give you guys a closer
12:45
look at the packaging
12:47
catfish pro catfish bait cheese and team
12:52
catfish
12:53
fiber nuggets power cheese flavor
12:56
so at least they like cheese here be
12:59
nice
13:00
if they’d eat this bait
13:06
ah all right it’s getting dark and i’m
13:09
getting eaten up by mosquitoes right now
13:11
so i think i’m going to call this i
13:14
really tried to catch a fish on the
13:16
catfish probate and not yet i did
13:20
see some small nibbles on the right one
13:23
and i’ve seen people catch
13:25
catfish on the catfish probate in other
13:27
videos
13:29
so catfish will eat it it’s just not my
13:32
lucky bait
13:33
the team catfish fiber nugget seems to
13:35
be a really lucky bait
13:36
for me i know some of you have said that
13:39
you’ve used fiber nuggets
13:40
and haven’t caught anything with them so
13:43
maybe there is a little bit of luck
13:45
involved
13:46
i’m going to reel this right one in and
13:48
see what the cheese bait looks like
13:50
after getting nibbled on a couple of
14:00
times
14:12
whoa still on the hook
14:17
and i really don’t see where they
14:19
nibbled on it
14:21
and it was really really light bite it
14:23
wasn’t like what you saw earlier
14:24
it just was like you know just a quick
14:27
hit
14:29
so i don’t know what was going on and it
14:32
wasn’t buried in algae
14:34
as you can see i guess i’m just unlucky
14:37
with this bait
14:39
