my bad wrong section...

nice pics!!

[LaAngler]

i caught some nice cats in the gulf states ditch before HF, they like stinkbait on that river i think......

[huntin fool]

that stink bait dont wanna stay on my hook. i may try running some jugs in GSD.

[huntin fool]

cat daddy what do you use for bait for your jugs and trot lines?

[Reverend Redfish]

where is the best place to catch some good catfish in the Lafayette area? Everyone tells me the Vermillion River, but I have to tell you - I will NOT eat anything from that sewage river... What's y'alls thoughts?

[LaAngler]

there has to be some big ones in the basin, catching them would be the trick, i caught some by accident in butte larose on nightcrawlers last year. i fished a small canal just a couple minutes from the launch.

[CatDaddy]

cat daddy what do you use for bait for your jugs and trot lines?


If i want to catch some Flatheads (opps). I use something live.. Espically live bream. If an Opp had any choice of bait..... it would be a live bream.

If you want blues and channels, they like almost anything but I find they bite the best on mullet fillets, red carp, and bream (dead or alive).

All this information is whats happening in my aera where I fish, It may be different in your aera.

Im not greedy, and will gladly take anyone that asks on a catfishing trip for free, BYOB. Sometimes i catch 3 or 4, but most of the time I come back with 1-200 lbs of catfish.

Some parts of the Intracoastal are salt. but not in my aera. I can fish intracoastal and catch Bass, Cats, sac-a-lait, reds, shouopic, bream.. almost anything but trout. Its brackish.. you need to come check out my home waters one day.

[TDaigle]

CatDaddy I knew i would find u here.

[CatDaddy]

I run mostly limb lines. I do have about 120 jugs that i run pretty often. On a good night i will run all my limbs and jugs when i can find enough bait. i also have alot of trot lines, that i dont use very often. I usually set my lines out and go pole fishing till im ready to check em.

[CatDaddy]

CatDaddy I knew i would find u here.


U know im where the fishing is big daddy!!!! pretty cool place here.

[TDaigle]

Cool site, glad you told me about it. When you get in we need to make one of those cat trips.

[cordgrass]

The old river controls structures near simmsport la, castnetted a few shad and thats what they were biting on.

[Hebert]

catdaddy, im gone all next week, but when i get back i think i may try running some jugs at night on the river..got any tips?

[mallard matt]

Try lake martin i caught some good cats ther last year at night.From the banks and from land.

[StuBone278]

Catdaddy I fish the intracoastal for catfish and the occasional redfish also. I'm usually fishin from the Boston to the Oaks canal. Usually just do decent, may start setting jugs in the morning so I'll have some more when I come back in, hah. Where are you fishing out of?

[killa k]

I ran some jugs up in the highlines north of ward 8 a couple of weeks ago, something came up with work and I didn't get to go check them the next morning so they sat for 2 nights. When I went back I had 1 dead gar (thankfully) that went about 15 pounds, 1 strangled cottonmouth (he got to keep the hook), a 3 lb channel cat and probably 6 or 7 straightened hooks and a broken one. Using mullet filets at about 4 ft deep, haven't had a chance to go out since.

[Reverend Redfish]

Intracostal Canal.. Come meet me one day[/QUOTE]



CatDaddy, where in the Intracoastal Canal do you fish? I usualy fish the Boston. Typically the Chiene, Delcambre Canal, and any mouth leading into the bay.

[StuBone278]

hey Reverend keep an eye out for me out there. Usually fishin that cut just east of the holding tanks and that work boat docked 24/7. Probably the only guy in the area with a 20hp Tohatsu and green deck in the jon boat, hahah! You launch out of Don's or Jean Marie?

[killa k]

Catdaddy-
I know you run jugs alot, what size hooks are you using? I have mine rigged with 4/0 kahle, but i have had a few straightened ones, just started jugging, is this pretty common?

I have been testing and using different hooks for a long time... I have finally found a hook that I think is the strongest and most dependable hook that i think...

I get them at Louisiana Net and Twine. They are the MUSTAD Forged Cadmium Plated hooks.... I use a 8/0 hook with the big eyes. (34081 style).

Me and one of my buddies were jugging the other night and one of these babys snagged an alligator... we caught the line and drug this alligator to the boat (keep in mind this thing is thrashing the water like he is on crack rock).. My buddy has a 14 foot boat and the tip of the nose was on the front and his tail was all the way to the back.. We held on to this alligator for almost 30 minutes till we could get the hook out.. when the hook was out, we noticed that it hadn't bent one bit... that made me a beleiver in these hooks.. I wont be buying any other hook from now on.

if you release the gator unharmed (if it catches your jug on accident) is that illegal or legal?

[CatDaddy]

catdaddy, im gone all next week, but when i get back i think i may try running some jugs at night on the river..got any tips?



Start baiting at sundown... check em about 12:00.. and then again in the morning if you want to stay up that long.. Use FRESH or LIVE bait.. Like cut mullet, Live bream, Red Carp.. ect...

The trick is to get them at """NIGHT""... and if your going to have them in Intracoastal... you have to keep an eye on them so the dern tugs dont suck em all up...

[CatDaddy]

You cant get caught with an alligator Period... unless its in season and you have a permit/tags... I didnt want to harm it because it was so dern big...

[CatDaddy]

Here are a few pics of some catfish that i usually catch

[LittleRob]

Atleast you drive a good truck, Dodge!!!!

[Trent Buxton]

If you ever get a chance to go to south carolina and fish the Santee Cooper river and lake....GO as fast as you can if your a catfisherman. IT has to be the capital of the world for cats. All kinds all sizes...clean water and even the big cats taste as good as the fiddlers.

How did you get the hook out of that guy without people nicknaming you "stubby"?

okay, i have a trot line ran all the way across the west fork river. i haven't done good with it at all. So if i cut it into smaller sections, what area should i look for to set it at? ex- cuts, marsh, tree line

Put it on the side this time of year. In about 5-6 foot of water. Dont put it in clear black water. The sun can penetrate clear water and depletes the oxygen, for some reason catfish dont really like it that much. Look for some willow trees, I always do good by willow trees for some reason, i havent figured that one out just yet.. If you have a depth finder, put it on the edge of some deepr holes, like on the edge.

Where you live fool? I can show you some awesome "cat holes"

Atchafalya river

[LittleRob]

Let's start thinking about a central location to have a friendly catfish tournament, something simple like 25-50 dollars a team , biggest stringer, biggest fish, next day we'll cook'em sit around and lie to each other and have a kids prize or something, something easy and fun, I think I may have a place in Jennings to gather ya'll just let me know send ideas.

[huntin fool]

gueydan canals!!! im on catdaddys team!

[CatDaddy]

gueydan canals!!! im on catdaddys team!


LMAO... you got it fool... Im all up for the little tournament thing and getting together and having a good time.. I think thats a great idea. The only problem is that i dont have a set schedule so ill have to know a few weeks ahead of time... It dont really have to be offical or anything. We can all gather at the camp grounds in Myers Landing, If you have a camper, come set it up. Drink beer, fry fish, light a campfire, listen to some good old country and rock. right on the mermentau river. Give the kids a headlight and a bicycle and they are good to go.

Dude only problem with that we are fisherman and we tend to tell lies, you forgot that, but that would be perfect

[huntin fool]

LIES? me no i dont tell no lies!!








behonest with ya. i'll admit it, i can tell some lies...its just flows out my mouth sometimes lol!

[CatDaddy]

Dude only problem with that we are fisherman and we tend to tell lies, you forgot that, but that would be perfect


All my fishing stories are true!!!

"I speak not with a forked toungue"

[LittleRob]

All my fishing stories are true!!!

"I speak not with a forked toungue"

Well I don't know if I can trust ya, a fisherman stretches the truth by 1lb. to 5lbs. And the numbers up to 6.
or atleast I do, yeah that's it

[huntin fool]

my fishin stories are true. most of the times. ( if i catch fish, they are true)

[LittleRob]

Yeah we just joke about the lies I like sittimg around talking, fishing hunting frogging just outdoor stuff

[huntin fool]

cat daddy- do catfish like shallow marsh water?

or do they like canals leading to marsh water?

[CatDaddy]

cat daddy- do catfish like shallow marsh water?

or do they like canals leading to marsh water?


I find they hang out in both. Some get stuck in the marsh and decide to stay there.. The only bad thing is, the clear marsh water lets to much sunlight in and depletes the oxygen quickly. If i set nets in clear water, i have to check my nets within 2 days or they will be dead when i get there. I find they hang out in deeper, muddier canals that marsh water empties into. look for marsh leaking into a canal, where you can see the water mixing.. thats usually a good spot. 8 to 10 feet deep this time of year. (keep in mind that i been fishing south of gueydan for 20 years and my ideas are based on the fishing here) I would like to go meet you one afternoon and i could help you rig up some lines and experiment with cats in your aera. We could try several different baits, in different locations, different depths, stuff like that...

[LittleRob]

Must have a boat inspection before launch (but you cant look at catdaddys bait bucket) to make sure no one has pre-caught catfish.

Cant use game fish for bait. Ex- bass, sacalait, trout, redfish.

Anything i missed?

[huntin fool]

okay, we got the rules now, all we need is a body of water and when!

[CatDaddy]

okay, we got the rules now, all we need is a body of water and when!



We got the water.... we can launch from Lowry/Myers landing. Its on a RV campground. It Sits on the Mermentau river. If you follow it south you run into the intracoastal wich runs east and west for hundreds of miles. Your also on the top of grand lake, mallard bay, accessable to all of the other lakes like round lake, devils lake, lake lebleu, old intracoastal, Lacassine, Miami corp (permit entry with 25 horse power only). the only off-limits is the marsh cuts by The Lake Arther Club. Plus the campground has a nice big oak tree we can hang out under, or whoever has campers can pile up in a corall and party/cook/drink/lie/party, whatever.

All we have to do is figure out a date to fish. It will be kinda hard for me because i work on call... Yall figure out when everyone will be in, and ill try and scedule my work so I can try and be in...

Like I said in some other thread, This dont have to be a paying tournament, we can just get together and have a little fun..

[LittleRob]

Talking smack is a must though are we bringing kids, bragging rights tournament is perfect, who ever wins gets to do whatever they want to Fools longhorn hat,,,,,

Oh.... now you went prefish and want to change the rules to suit your discoveries huh?

Did you catch any over 40 lbs like i ALWAYS do? If we weigh in 5 fish you better hope you have more than 150 lbs of fish

I made the rules before I prefished...

You cheating!!!

MARK IS ALREADY DISQUALIFIED.

BTW..... did you meet up with any of my scouts?

[LittleRob]

Prefish all ya'll want, my little man said he is so excited to catch a fish that ---------big. So it's in the bag for the Little's. Sorry to burst ya'lls bubbles

[CatDaddy]

Oh definatley..... Prefish all you want.......

To try and keep things fair, I will refrain from prefishing.

Any other handicaps that yall would like to ad to my list to make it fair?

It's funny dat ya'll talkin about a catfish tourny. Earlier in March my cousin decided we would do the same thing and call it the first annual catfish classic. We fished the intracoastal round lake Missere. Anyway, it was just the two boats entered in the tourny, mine and his. LOL But, it was the first annual catfish classic and it was a good time. My cousins boat caught the most fish and my boat got the biggest fish so we all just got our money back!! LOL

I considering puttin on the first annual flounder pounder tourny this summer.

We need to set a date Meauxsis I got all kinda guys that want in on this.How bout we take a portion of the money and buy the cooking oil, fish fry etc and then split the winnings with whats left. Let me know what u come up with IDK who's in charge of this but i nominate you LOL

[LittleRob]

I don't see why ya'll are worried about the money that's going to go to my son's college fund, Seriously all we need now is a date and we can really figure alot the rules out before we leave in the morning, cause rule one is Bergeaux's win.
