[#008000]In case you haven't been watching the cat contest, this last weekend seen lots of bumping around, with a new biggest fish in the contest at 32" for Jigfisher... [#0000ff]Signups are still open, if you want to join in the fun, just let me know and I'll sign you up... No fee, it's like free and a lot of fun... [#ff0000]If you don't think you can catch that big of fish, sign up anyway and compete against your previous best record... I'm never very competitive, but I do like to try beating my previous best scores... So far I'm at my second highest score since I started the contests five or six years ago... so it can be fun competing against your best... four inches to go to tie last year for me...

[#6000bf]Last weekend was really fun for me, I took Friday off work and went out on my toon and it took me a while to find the fish, but when I did it was a blast, first fish was a score bumper for me and while I was taking care of it, I had my worm rod take off and when I went to set that hook it snapped the line like it was light leader instead of the 20 lb test that it was... for the next hour and a half I had probably 8 other fish on the line, landed two about 24-25" fish and the rest spit it out or let go after getting my heart rate going for a few seconds each... After helping my wife for the mid day section I returned at 7:45 and fished till dark and got 2 others at 27" and three or four others around the 25" size, but they sure seemed a lot bigger since they are so fat right now... Fishing is getting towards its best of the year in my opinion, but you know me, I can't catch them during the summer... Anyway if you like cats, watch for the next warm spell and then go give them a shot, nothing like a cat when you set the hook in the shallower water and it starts to tear up the area like a gator on the line... Fun fish to catch and love to watch the splashing... Later J[/#6000bf]
