Catfishing
Today, with the help of Dave Csanda and Jeremy Smith, we will look into the world of modern catfishing. Catfishing is a common way to fish for catfish, which are known for being big and strong. Dave and Jeremy, the hosts of this video, show off their catfishing skills and give some useful tips and tricks for having a successful catfishing trip.
The Excitement of Catching Big Fish
The first thing that happens in the video is that Dave and Jer catch some huge catfish. The hosts are amazed by how big and strong the fish they are catching are. They say that there are a lot more catfish in the river that are ready to be caught. The hosts stress how much fun and excitement it is to catch these big fish. 
Picking the Right Fishing Gear
Dave and Jer talk about the different kinds of fishing rods that are good for catching catfish. They say that some fishermen like spinning rods better than baitcasting rods. They say that the St. Croix Mojo series of rods, which are made just for catfishing, are their favorite. The tips of these rods are soft, and the backs are strong, which makes them great for fighting catfish. The hosts also talk about how important it is to use braided line because it lets anglers feel even the smallest bites and makes it more likely that they will catch the fish.
Using Technology to Catch Fish
Dave and Dana talk about the new technology that makes catfishing easier. They talk about the Humminbird Onix fish finder, which comes with a tool called AutoChart Live. This tool lets fishermen drive up and down the river while recording contour data on a map. The map gets better as more and more data is added, which helps fishermen find certain areas by matching colors. The hosts also talk about how they use side imaging to find cover and figure out how deep the water is.
How to Know What’s Going on in the River
It is very important to know the conditions of the river in order to catch catfish. They say that the river they are fishing in isn’t on any maps, but with the help of technology, they can map it out and find places where the depth changes and there is cover. They also talk about gouges along the riverbank, which are signs that catfish are likely to be nearby.
How to Anchor Your Boat for Better Fishing
Dave and Dana talk about how they anchor their boats so they can fish more effectively. They say that because of the wind and current, they anchor the boat so that it doesn’t sway and pull on the lines. They use a regular anchor at the front of the boat and a shallow water anchor at the back to keep it in place. This lets them fish in certain places without the boat moving.
The Right Tools for Catfishing Right Now
The hosts talk about how important it is to have the right tools for catfishing. They talk about the Quantum Icon PT reels they are using, which have a lot of line capacity and a high retrieve ratio. They also talk about using 50-pound test Suffix Performance Braid, which is strong enough to handle big catfish. The hosts also talk about how important it is to have the right fishing rods, like the St. Croix Mojo series, which are made to handle the strength and fight of catfish.
Learning about how catfish act
Dave and Dana talk about how catfish act and how that affects fishing. They say that catfish are bottom feeders and that you can often find them in places with cover, like ditches and gouges along the riverbank. They also talk about how important it is to use baits that catfish like, like cut bait or live bait.
What Angels Do in Fishing
Dave tells a personal story about his belief in angels near the end of the video. He talks about a time when he fell through the ice and thinks an angel came to see him. He talks about his belief in angels and tells people to read his article on the subject.
Final thoughts
We used Lindner’s Fishing Edge 2016 S9 to learn about the world of modern catfishing in this article. We learned about how exciting it is to catch big catfish, how important it is to pick the right fishing gear, how to use technology to catch fish, how to understand river conditions, how to anchor for better fishing, and how angels help with fishing. Catfishing is a difficult and fun way to fish that needs skill, knowledge, and the right tools.
