Catch Em All Fishing FAQs (April 2023)
Boat Name
I don’t think his boat has a name.
Crew Members
Zak ‘Catchem’ Bagby (age 35) and yes, that’s his real name. He is of Mexican/American nationality.
He has a new girlfriend, Mata, which is not surprising.
The Boat
I’m not sure which boat he has.
Upgrades
I’m also not sure of what upgrades he’s put on.
Location
Zak films all his videos in the United States, typically in Florida. This is one of his latest videos:
Past Cruising
Zak has fished in Mexico, South America and the United States.
Affording It
Zak wasn’t rich but worked hard during his young years and spent the weekends fishing. He saved up enough to eventually do YouTube full-time.
Net Worth
Zak from Catch ‘Em All Fishing has a net worth of $660,000 as of 2023. This is based on the value of his boat, truck and online business.
Making Loot
He makes $9,100/month through:
➜ Selling his own fishing merchandise
➜ Allowing YouTube to put ads on his channel
➜ Sponsorships with fishing brands
His channel is way under-monetized given how many subscribers he has.
Collaborations
Zak has collaborated with an endless of other YouTubers.
Big Moments
During his years on YouTube, he has certainly created some controversy, namely around fishing with a chicken, and targeting iguanas.
Future Plans
Zak’s going to continue creating videos about fishing and has no plans to sail around the world.
Key Takeaways
What can we learn?
➜ Keep your fishing videos simple
➜ Be willing to use what you have
➜ Try to avoid creating controversy
➜ Use your channel to find new IG girlfriends 😉
But in all seriousness, have fun out there!
Conclusion
Zak is one of the most popular YouTube channels in the United States, but many Australians (like me) watch his content too. He’s originally and without the BS.
For me, I certainly cannot wait to see what is to come!
