In this video, I am using shad as bait for the first time in the hopes of catching catfish on jug lines.

    The small ones are my favorite ones for frying whole, yum! Enjoyed the video.
  • I caught 2 gators on the same trout line earlier this summer. A four footer and a five footer. Both hooked their back foot while cleaning out my lines. My son held their tail with their head under my kayak while I cut the hook out. They both seemed very tired and let me have their foot. I think their numbers should be greatly thinned. It's just a matter of time before one attacks a kid fishing on the bank. I'm 59 yrs old and I've fished Louisiana's waters all my life. I was 40 before I saw my first gator in the wild. Now I see them everytime I fish.
  • Great video. Nice boat and set up. Yes, keep the fish. Fry that sucker and live another day.

    Man that was a good video man. That was awesome seeing you catch those catfish and the Gators. I saw how the gators caught you off guard and I can see why. That was awesome seeing your flip flop tan you have. I take it you like wearing flip flops man? I have a flip flops tan too man & my flip flops tan i have it all year long. I am a huge flip flop fan because i have big very very extremely wide feet sz15 6E wide with very chubby fat wide toes that are equally straight across making my foot very very wide at 6 1/2 inches wide from my big toe to my lil toe. My foot outgrew shoes , socks , & boots when i was 18 years old & flip flops is the only footwear that will barely and i mean barely fit my foot because of my toes being wider than the flip flops straps. Again it was cool to see your flip flops tan man & you catching those catfish. The video thank you for sharing buddy.

    In the area I live the Chinese carp have taken over a lot of our smaller rivers, Pushed all them fisherman including me to other waters, Now those waters are so overcrowded Pretty bad

    I think I would've just cut the line to get my noodle, that could've got bad.

    I would've started netting in those jugs after catching an alligator on one. All it would take is an alligator to pull you in and you might die to a death roll
  • @weswsp01
    What length and type of line did you use?
  • Get you a aluminum extension poke with a hook. I got one from Amazon for about $20. I assume you are in Florida?
  • How does the boat do on bigger Lakes when it’s rough how does it handle it

    I think the smaller ones you are keeping are TOO small. Just my opinion. But I like your jug line fishing technique. I do a lot of jugging myself.
