I found the 27 inch catfish pic I wanted to post

[Santaaa]

I am not fishing a river. I am fishing a lake. Lake Arthur in Pennsylvania. I went tonight but got nothing. My girlfriend got some blue gill and 2 mud cats. One of those dumb things bit me when I was trying to get the hook out.[mad] It has gotten colder recently so I may be done catching catfish for the year. Doubt that but you never know. The mud cats were caught on my home made dough bait. Man it hurts when those little buggers bite you. I got bit by one early in the season it was my first catfish and again with one my girlfriend caught she did not want to take it off the hook generally she will take care of baiting her hook and taking fish off but she did not want to get bit or stun by stingers so I got bit instead of her. It was a nine inch mud cat that was my first catfish. From what I heard mud cats only get to 14 inches. How far I have come since I caught my first catfish. from 9 inches to a whopping 30 inch one as my best. I have yet to beat that one. The 27 inch one gave me my best fight as I was using a medium action rod for that one and the 30 inch one was caught on a bigger fishing rod. I have caught a lot of nice size channel catfish on my dough bait. I set it up on ebay you can buy the bait I use if you like. I am not selling the recipe. I could not bring myself to sell my recipe. I need money for books for school. I messed up school last semester and well I lost my financial aid. I am going to be listing more of them if the first 2 sell one is an auction and one is buy it now. search catfish bait and look for Tom's catfish bait. If it sells I will be listing alot more of them for sale. I really need money to pay for school. I am hoping to get back on track with school. Please take a look at my auction and buy it now advertisement.
