3. Some really nice catches ! Would have been neat to see all the poles go a once...lol
4. the commercial fishermen decimated the Rappahannock and I know there putting a hurting on the james,chickahomany, mattaponi, and the pamunky. we practiced catch and release for years so the commercial guys could sell those fish we wanted to catch again.

13. most people wouldn't understand what a challenge this is..not only to catch blue like this, but keep all the lines from tangling each other...perfect O man 👍Catch and release is well respected and keeps a trophy for someone else :)
14. dude catfish get big in case you didnt know,
15. I had a day like that with Redfish, Unfortunately I didn't have a camera with me. I was working the shoreline at the back of a local lake and saw this big fast boat zoom into the area and abruptly stop and start throwing out lines and immediately both fishermen were hooked up, so I eased myself towards them and they waved me over and the fish hit one after the other and all the fish were over 15 pounds, I caught my limit of 3 in 3 casts... I caught about 5 more and released them.
    Brought my Dad out there the next day and NOTHING in that spot!
    Awesome video! I'm surprised it doesn't have hits in the Millions.
16. Heh! When I first saw the title I thought it implied a single catfish, of 743 pounds, that only took 4 hours to land.
17. It's days like this that keep you coming back again and again. You can get skunked a hundred times but the memory of this day will keep you coming back always. Well done.
