Catfish fishing
MADCAT - CATCHING THE GIANTS OF THE DEEP
Lurking in the murky depths of Europe’s rivers, ponds and lakes lies one of the continent’s biggest predators. They can be more than two metres in length and weigh more than 100kg and have a diet that includes crustaceans, fish of all sizes and even pigeons and ducks – it’s no wonder the catfish is considered one of the apex freshwater predators of the continent. The catfish represents one of the ultimate challenges for anglers and catching them has been steadily growing in popularity over the last decade. But it is no job for mere regular fishing tackle – you need specialist equipment to fight these brutal leviathans – and that’s where MADCAT comes in.
If you want to catch the catfish of your dreams, MADCAT can help you achieve it. We have created an all-encompassing range offering rods, lures, lines, terminal tackle, bite indicators, luggage, bivvies, bedchairs, clothing and a whole host of other accessories, all designed to withstand the rough and ready world of catfish fishing. Whether you are fishing from the bank or from a boat or other watercraft, MADCAT has specialised kit that makes it possible to stir up the giants of the deep and to get them on your unhooking mat.
Spinning Reel DAM QUICK® 2-V2
This smart and capable front drag reel from Quick has been fully renewed and updated to include better cosmetics and improved performance. It benefits from the additions of better gearing and our proprietary Duragrease lubrication. The first generation of this reel is already a hit, so we made the good even better with this new evolution.
MADCAT® BLACK CAT-STICK 3.00m 150-300g
When we developed and tested the CAT-STICK we always had one thing in mind: we have to make a catfish rod that can stand the extreme power of monster catfish and also, rough handling by the catfish angler. So with this in mind, we developed a rod with double wrapped guides without a shock ring, a glass blank, rubber grips and a heavy duty aluminum reel seat. Rods built to last, recommended for buoy fishing or float fishing with heavy bait fish.

Gamakatsu LS 4644TC
The Gamakatsu LS 4644 has been primarily designed for big (live) baits and really big fish. Although the hook is rather big and incredibly strong, it is yet light enough to achieve good hook setting. The unique bend of the LS 4644 is similar to an Octopus hook, but has a slightly more exaggerated slope off the back with a harder angle bend at the bottom and slight beak point.
Jig Line MX8 MULTICOLOR Braided Line 500m
A super PE line that further enhances the roundness and the smoothness of JigLine Takumi. By adopting 8-strand PE, it has higher roundness compared to the common 4-strand PE; it also makes less squeaky rubbing sound when it touches the guide (silent mode).
