Hi, my name is Steve Douglas; I am the owner and operator of Reel Outdoor Productions and Monster Rod Holders. I run several websites and blogs that are fishing and outdoors related.
I am professional competitive catfish tournament angler from the state of Kentucky, competing across the U.S. in the Cabelas King Kat Pro series tournament trail, ranking, 2nd in the nation among my peers for two consecutive years in a row.
I have embedded myself deep into the catfishing industry not only as a tournament angler but also as a manufacture of catfishing products and also participating as a major sponsor of the Cabelas King Kat national tournament trail.
I started the Discover cat fishing site because I get a lot of request for catfishing information from folks on my websites and through emails.
So I thought I could help many more folks learn about a certain topic and to provide real information, tips, techniques and proven methods if I posted the information on one website with articles that could be shared easily. Instead of approaching it, one person at a time.
As the sport grows, so does the desire from new anglers to obtain qualified information for better catch results! Over the years I has enjoyed helping many anglers improve their catch rate, and don’t mind to share what I have learned over the years competing on the national trails..
Here are a few media publications that I have been featured in over the years pertaining to catfishing.

Great website and videos. Been interesting to watch Steve’s endeavors in the business and competition sides of the sport grow over the last few years. I have learned a lot in a short amount of time and it is all appreciated.
thanks joe!
Great site and very informative but however I don’t want to sound like I don’t have a lot of brains but I have the Lowerance x-4 pro fish finder and I seem to understand it ok but however the one question I have is what part of the boat do I fish from?? My transducer is on the back of my boat, but are the readings I get are they all in front of the boat or straight down from where the transducer is?? I’m new to boating and fish finders, but done mostly bank fishing, I have always learned there are no stupid questions but the unasked ones. Thanks and I will be visiting the site a lot.
the view you will be looking at starts at the transducer and makes about a 60 degree cone as it hit the bottom, so yea you will pretty much be looking directly under the boat. however they do make a side view fish finder that will look 100 ft. or so in both left and right directions.
good luck
steve
