hey guys I'm Dieter melhorn have you
tried using chicken for catfish bait and
have you wondered does it only catch
channel catfish will it catch blue
catfish will it even catch a flathead
well in this video we're going to try to
answer some of those questions as I go
fishing on Sandy Cooper with Jimmy from
fishing and gear outdoor entertainment
he's got these little flimsy rods he's
used to using his big b m rods I don't
think he's a big guy because just
well we just get the chicken you got off
oh actually I thought he was on there
do it do it let's switch them and see if
that makes a difference he obviously has
half of a chicken we're gonna put on his
rig and you've got a demon dragons on
yours too right so we're gonna put his
hooks on we're gonna see if it makes a
difference he already does not like my
boat and was my rig my hooks are too
small upgrade on the hooks and the rigs
and I just happened to bring three
tell me about the singers what are they
called again Santee Drifters snag really
sneakers he's got a release feature
sticker gets snagged up about 10 pounds
of pressure to pop loose very cool I
think we'll find them uh CNG
drifters.com or you can put hashtag
Santi drip as always I'll put you a link
down in the description below where you
can check them out and get them
especially they start catching fish here
you're going to want to buy them since
you've got this light line I'm gonna go
six reps right you can go about four or
five he's running how big 80 pound line
80 pound leader how big is the line on
your boat 50 60 60 pound line on this
I'm expecting a world record he's not
gonna know how to act if he catches a 15
pound fish on one of these rods put that
big old Mama piece of chicken on there
see now are you feeling better
do you feel better now are you feeling
better already okay we missed on your
small hook that could have been that
could have been something nice that
could have been a state record uh-oh
uh-oh he's going to guilt me into it
here he's also not I did sweeten the
deal the one thing I sweetened him on
here he's got the Mack Daddy reel on his
side of the boat just real this rig is
going to get it done you catch a 60
pound fish on that Rod you're you're
going to be hurting one thing guys
you'll learn fish enough and fishing
with different people when you get off
of your boat onto somebody else's no
matter how much they fish how good they
are how nut you are out of your comfort
zone it's it's fun to have somebody like
him who's a great fisherman on here
getting into uh the awkward zone so he's
gonna end up catching the fish down here
now that's the bigger version of the
demon dragon the ones I have tested were
the smaller birds those are much larger
and will float a much larger bait than
the original version I think they seem
louder it seems like the shell on them
is louder harder or something they come
as a patented mold to use too A lot of
the copycats are just using a soil stick
or something a lot louder than the
improved clinch knot yeah I learned it
like uh Steve Douglas snail knot
learned it from his Channel all right so
tell me this about that snail knot okay
but if you if you have to cut that hook
say you swallowed it okay can you tie
another one straight on to the end there
or do you have to cut this on this side
again I'm going to convince him before
the end of the day to go to the uni
snail knot so he never has to cut the
all right so show me your rig show me
your rig here okay so nocturnal Nation
10 ought whisker Seeker 80 and then you
got your demon dragon now which demon
dragon do you know which version that is
I think they got a couple of different
it just says okay yeah just a nocturnal
Nation one okay and then I go swivel and
then a quick release hookers terminal
tackle swivel drift Sinker goes on there
so you got some heavy heavy weight
stuffer how heavy is your leader 80 80.
Dragon big piece of chicken you ain't
got no excuse now you have no excuse
whatsoever it ain't getting off now okay
I'm gonna gouge the eyes out on this
the bad part is we left that one
I have a gear and there's like a 200
I'll let you use one of these rods over
here William will you let me use one of
your one of your rigs with a big old
oh oh he's a smack Cocker I love this
man this is a smooth reel it's a nice
If Money Was No Object that's what I
would tell everybody to buy that's one
pipeline tackle worked on did their
super tune on it I'd say Cass that those
ain't the best rods for casting you put
that onto a heavier action rod with some
weight and sling it forever yeah I
noticed the ladder action the casting is
see liftable and edible uh I don't know
I think he's liftable I'm just looking
and saying oh possibly maybe not oh he's
not hooked good though hang on hang on
be bigger than I thought how many times
have I said that color on the fish yeah
that's what that's what this fancy grip
though I didn't have you do it I I don't
that's how we do it there we go get a
good shot I think yep good fat fish you
feel better now that you caught one on
big piece of chicken one demon dragon
one Gator side nothing getting ready to
get him back in chunking okay
there you go buddy man doesn't like my
burger grip my booger grip is pretty it
weighed it and everything I saved his
thumb once he gets an infected thumb
he'll be wanting a bugger invite me to
fishing and get uh you know oh I love it
man I love it this is fun what are you
doing with that little bitty piece of
that's about the same size you had a
half a chicken on there a minute ago
I think your eyes are getting bigger the
hooks the hooks are making it look
smaller that's what it is the hooks yeah
let's go about Palm size okay
oh yeah he's there I don't know if he's
big as your fish he hit it like he was
a little chicken guys don't say anything
I was a little piece of chicken
they're gonna they're gonna
it's even gonna shame me back here with
his big giant are you gonna say I know
what he's gonna say he's gonna say that
fish would be bigger if you had a big
oh is it getting a little bigger oh is
it getting bigger oh I think he just got
bigger oh he growing they grow sometime
of course yeah of course you know it
could be three pounds on these flimsy
rods this man here uses these big giant
could be a three pounder we'll see
getting our money's worth out of this
10 feet down we're right in the dip it
looks like we rolled back off this hunt
on the front side he's gonna be at least
I'm gonna bring him to you this time
by the bay we're going to use that silly
poo boy Boga grip to weigh it here in a
we're good pick here's what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna put you out on this side of
the boat and you can go get you a big
boom well there you go guys we're
catching some fish we're catching them
on big baits we're catching them on
small baits we are putting some fish in
the boat the bike was over all slow but
we kept on drifting this area because we
knew fish were there is it was going on
the fall and that thing is swimming an
he was in the ocean I say shark
but that's an awful lot of left to right
how deep are we seven feet he may be
trying to find deep water too
I'm gonna try to bring him to this side
since he cleared the drifts up there you
we'll run that one to there let me get
yeah that's funny he hit it on the fall
I just seen line all of a sudden go
shoot shoot we're gonna take that
we're only at seven feet I'm almost
saying catfish he's trying to find deep
water I think he is too I'm gonna stick
with catfish I think it's a decent fish
and it's not a giant fish
and if he would take a big poop right
now he would probably weigh 12 pounds
because his belly is full of rocks
all right fishy thank you for the show
good hit on the way down too
all right folks pay attention on this
next fish what you didn't get to see was
the takedown it was on the planer board
and I have never seen a planter board go
underwater like it did with this fish
what I really want you to pay particular
attention to are the rods in the
background because while I was fighting
this fish we got hooked up on another
fish and didn't even realize it till the
I have no idea what that fishing is dude
I don't think they're in here
that's a massive whatever it is
I've never seen the planer board get
buried like that I've done it a couple
look how close we are to where I caught
if this is good you only got service
that's good too I could tell this is a
good fish I'm still not convinced it's a
catfish that was a massive run on that
well he's still coming straight to you
though ain't going side to side
I think we got a little more control
don't come to the top do not come to the
top stay down stay down stay down stay
stay down if you'll unclip that I'm
gonna try to keep it tight there you go
like sun and more yeah you're still
playing on this side perfect
work you away from the drift side
all right stay down go back down get
away from that sock you know what go
you may get a shot at him straight out
you know what he's coming back over here
I look like a d I seen a little bit of
he's at least 10 pounds yeah
that's all right I'm kind of nourishing
it's a decent fish I think he's at least
dude thank you why am I not so nervous
because you had the net it's worse when
it's somebody else's fish dude I have to
get it off the cleat there we go oh
Jesus he's gonna go over 30. he may have
a fish on that outside the inner board
all right well let's do is yours in
come on come here come here come here
whoa doubled up on some pigs
dude that's a flat head wow oh chicken
there you go guys two great fish one in
the upper 50s one around 40. great fish
anywhere you go in the country and both
of them came on chicken so which is
better big pieces of chicken small
pieces of chicken well it's like I've
said before guys one trip doesn't make a
determination on what is best whether it
be for a bait a hook a fishing rod or
your style of fishing you got to get out
there and fish you got to try things
over a long period of time to get a
really good feel me personally I fish
with smaller pieces Jimmy he likes using
larger pieces the man catches fish go
check his channel out you'll see him
catching fish on those bigger pieces I
fish with the smaller ones main reason
being I think these fish are kind of
keyed in on feeding on mussels when
they're eating these things so that's
the way I go that's the way I work he
does it different the bottom line is
obviously from this this video both ways
work well folks if you made it this far
thank you for watching here are a couple
more videos that I think you're gonna
like I'd watch that one and then that
one no no do do that one first and then
that one I I'm just watch them both
