It’s time to talk catfish, tournaments, and fall river action! In this episode of the Old Carver Fishing Podcast, we look back at the past Steamboat Days Catfish Classic, talk about what went down on the river, and share some of the lessons learned from tournament fishing.
We also dive into an important topic for anyone fishing a catfish tournament — how to keep your fish alive and healthy until weigh-in. From handling fish properly to keeping them in good condition throughout the event, we cover some practical tips to help give your catch the best chance of making it to the scales healthy.
And as summer fades and fall rolls in, the catfish bite starts changing. We talk about what to look for during the fall transition, where the fish may be moving, and how changing water conditions can affect your approach.
