At first it might seem the same thing even just a different name but we’ll be laying the groundwork to do some bigger things as we progress.</p> <p>Catfish Edge will have a more “varied” focus on <strong>different levels of experience</strong> and areas and <strong>not so focused only on basic information</strong> geared towards beginners or “basic” information.</p> <h4>Who’s involved in Catfish Edge?</h4> <p>Besides Chad Ferguson, there’s some other people (and companies) involved but they will remain “behind the scenes” at least for now.</p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: x-large;">What happens to Learn To Catch Catfish?</span></strong></p> <p>It will still be around but for now the <strong>focus will be on Catfish Edge</strong> and the Catfish Edge podcast.</p> <p>You’ll see a much <strong>bigger involvement</strong> in the future with the sport of catfish fishing <strong>in different areas</strong>. There’s some exciting things taking place in the sport with many companies putting focus towards catfish anglers. We’ll be in the big middle of what’s taking place so we can not only help serve as a <strong>resource for anglers, catfish guides and catfish tournaments</strong> but the <strong>companies that are involved</strong> also.</p> <h4>Is Catfish Edge a Tackle Company? Website? Apparel Company?</h4> <p>No.</p> <p>Catfish Edge is not a “tackle company”, simply a “website” or an “apparel company”.</p> <p>Catfish Edge is about a lifestyle that catfish anglers live, the <strong>products and news</strong> they are interested in and <strong>promoting the sport of catfish fishing</strong> and changing the perception that others have of catfish anglers.</p> <p>Bottom line, promote the sport, give it additional exposure and do so in a much more professional manner than most have traditionally done in the past.</p> <h5>Stepping Up For Catfish Conservation…&#8230;</h5> <p>There’s a wide variety of conservation issues catfish anglers are facing across the country with pay lakes, over harvest, trophy catfish conservation, noodling and a variety of other issues.</p> <p>There’s a lot of duplication of efforts and lack of a common voice and shared resources so we’re positioning to fill a void and take a <strong>much more active role in conservation issues</strong> in the future and serve as a resource across the country.</p> <blockquote><p>Put The Big Cats Back!

We’ll <strong>continue to produce “products” and other items that are for sale</strong> but we’re hoping to have a much lower barrier to entry in the future.</p> <h6>How Can You Support Catfish Edge and The Podcast?</h6> <p><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/catfish-edge-podcast-fishing/id835933827?mt=2" target="_blank"><img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="alignright" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.catfishedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/itunes-button.jpg?resize=209%2C77&#038;ssl=1" alt="itunes-button" width="209" height="77" /></a>Head over to iTunes and leave an iTunes Review, Rating and Subscribe to the Catfish Edge podcast in iTunes.</p> <p><a href="http://app.stitcher.com/browse/feed/46186/details" target="_blank"> <img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="alignright" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.catfishedge.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/stitcher-logo.jpg?resize=194%2C99&#038;ssl=1" alt="stitcher-logo" width="194" height="99" /></a></p> <p>This is a great time of year for the <a href="http://www.learntocatchcatfish.com/landing/spring-blue-catfish-techniques/?utm_source=catfishedge&amp;utm_medium=website&amp;utm_campaign=ce%20products%20page" target="_blank">Spring Blue Catfish Techniques</a> and <a title="Summer Channel Catfish Techniques" href="https://www.catfishedge.com/summer-channel-catfish/" target="_blank">Summer Channel Catfish Techniques</a> books as well as the <a title="The Secret Catfish Rig: The Best Channel Catfish Rig EVER" href="https://www.catfishedge.com/secret-catfish-rig/" target="_blank">Secret Catfish</a> <a href="https://www.catfishedge.com/secret-catfish-rig/">Rig</a>.</p> <p>Last but not least you&#8217;d be doing a <em><strong>HUGE </strong></em>favor if you&#8217;d click those social media buttons at the bottom of this post and share this episode of the podcast!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <div class="video"><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/9eZ1kQcRoog?rel=0" width="853" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.catfishedge.com/what-is-catfish-edge-episode-2/">What Is Catfish Edge?
