Big Butterfly Carp Caught With Bread!

I got this pen rod from a friend and wanted to try it out on some big channel catfish in a retention pond. It has 10lb mono on it and I was using hot dog as bait. I'm surprised it didn't break and it actually held up quite well against a 10+lb catfish.

Woke up early this morning and went bass fishing and couldn't locate a school. Only caught 4 and then I got a giant thump and thought I had a sharelunker on. I fought it for a while and then I saw it was a huge drum. This is the biggest one I've caught and was 9-10lbs. I caught it on a Texas rigg...

In this video, Blacktiph travels to Texas to fish for alligator gar with me and also to feed my pet bass. The bass were very aggressive and put on a show for him.

I am using bombshell turtle down at my pond and I caught 5 bass about 2 pounds.These turtles work good and could really catch some big fish.

In this video I build a new ramp so the turtles can climb up on the bank and eat from my hand. The turtles love this warm weather and and very active this time of year.

In this video, I grab a shovel and some sand to build a ramp so the turtles can crawl up on the bank and eat. Once wild, the turtles are very tame now and meet me every evening along with the fish to eat dinner.

In case you didn't know, bullfrogs will eat just about anything that will fit in their mouth and that includes other frogs. Using hollow body frogs is probably the best way to catch them with a fishing rod. My friend Will was using a Spro and Booyah frog for them and I was the camera guy. It's am...

In this video I go to a local pond with a ton of big lily pads and fish for bullfrogs with a mouse lure! The frogs were so aggressive and I even had one eat the mouse over 10 times. The slow mo video turned out awesome and the frogs were massive!

In this video I go to a local pond that I've never cast netted before and catch shad for my pet bass. I ended up catching 16 bags of shad which is really good!

Here's how I catch all the shad I feed for my bass. This is a big retention pond loaded with shad that I catch them by the hundreds. I am using a 7 foot net which is good for ponds and lakes. This time of year the big ones are everywhere and I caught about 50lbs in 20 casts. This will lasts a few...

In this video I go to a local pond to cast net food for my pet fish and end up catching half a bucket in two casts. The shad in the summer get in big schools and are easy to catch once you find them.

This is how I get all of my shad to feed my pet bass. I go to a retention pond every month and load up on them. This time me and my friend caught 25lbs of shad which will last about 3 weeks. I was using an 8 foot super spreader cast net and averaged about 10 shad a throw.

I had a tiny batman pole and wanted to try to catch a big catfish on it. I was using 6lb mono and a hot dog for bait when I hooked up with a nice fish. It got tangled in the lily pads and I had to go in and get him out. He was about 7-8lbs and took a while to land on the batman pole.

These are my pet catfish that are eating the shad that I throw in for them. They range from 6-20lbs and I have been feeding em for about 6 years now. The footage was shot with a GoPro 3+ Black Edition.

These are pet catfish that i have had in my pond for several years.They have gotten huge for channel catfish.The biggest one is about 15 to 17 lbs.The catfish are eating fish pellets that i through out. The catfish grow 3 to 4 pound every year and eat a ton of aquamax fish food. I hope you enjoy!

Catfish Petting Zoo

Me and Bradley catching catfish at his place on the Brazos River. This is a stretch of the brazos river around sealy. It is great for catfish and also has a lot of gar. We were using shad for bait and it worked well for the small catfish in the video. We ended up with six.

In this video I feed the fish during the middle of a huge cold from blowing across Texas. The water was still warm enough for the fish to eat well and they devoured all the shad.

I visited one of my favorite bodies of water for a few hours this weekend, the Comal River, and had a blast sight fishing bass in super clear water. The dropshot rig is by far the best technique to use here and I have three baits that really outperform all others. The bass here are very skittish ...

In this video me and my dad are seining at lake somerville. I had the gopro on my head and I captured what we caught. This is how we catch the bait to feed my pet bass that you've seen in recent videos. We caught close to 50 threadfin and gizzard shad and some ghost minnows.
These fish will be ap...

This is me fishing down at my pond for bass with a 10" rage anaconda worm.

In this video I use rope lures to catch gar on the river. I ended up catch three species of gar and two big alligator gar around 100 pounds.

In this video I head out to the Trinity River in hopes of catching a giant alligator gar. We ended up catching 4 gar all over 5 feet long and a big blue catfish. It was one of the best days of my life!!
