drift fishing for kitties how to and bonus perch jerk video.

I had two boats come up and ask me how I fished so many rods yesterday.
I decided to cut my cattin short and make a short video. I seen a flock of birds working bait so I got to do a bait jerk and you vet to see how hard a blue hits and he was a baby.Lol. I hope this helps. Just throw them big boys back.
drifting - YouTube

Nice video. Thank you

Good vid!

thanks . i like it at about 7 min when the cat hits that rod.

So you were drifting not anchored? Must have been really calm or were you dragging a sock of chain to keep it slow, barely looks like you are moving. Great video.

I was drifting about .03. I was using my I-pilot.

Very nice video. I wish I had a interest in cat fishing as much as you do and knew as much as you do. If you ever give a class please sign me up! You make it look easy. Thanks for posting it for us to see.:popcorn

I know this is a crappie site but I think that my crappie background helps a ton on catfish. I love to watch the rod fold over and know it's a pig on the other end

Nice video and thanks for sharing. Most of us fish for different species of fish besides crappie and it is always great to see videos being made and shared.

thanks for the vid B M I like the way that blue hit that rod too
were you on Wylie?
when your going slow like that do you use cut bait or live?
curious ==

Bowlerman, you mentioned that you dont drift much so I suppose you anchor up alot. Is the setup with the rods about the same even when not drifting? And are they casted out about the same when drifting or not? Thanks for sharing that vid. It helps alot when someone wants to learn what youre doing.

Great video as always! Very informative too. Thanks for sharing

My only other question is what hook size do you use? And a little more detail on the rig where they swivel connects and how the weight is connected. Just curious, thanks
oh....you said you only use the bellies of the perch for bait, correct?
Thanks for the great video too.

I use 8/0 hooks most times. As for bait I use everything off the perch usually a fillet off both sides and the head.

50lb test line?

Bowler man, what type of depth and terrain do you target? If it's not a trade secret!

Some great information, and a lot of knowledge in there. Thanks for the video, bowler man. :fish

Great video. I learned a lot. I like that style since I striper fish so much.
