[quote cpierce]Those are some nice catfish. Seems like they are averaging a bit bigger for you this fall.
Looked like you had fun and sounds like a might tasty ending![/quote]
[cool][#0000ff]I always catch my largest cats of the year after about September 15th...once the water starts cooling down. That gets them feeding more. During the summer the bigger fish feed more at night but during the fall they forage all day. Almost all of the cats over 30" that I have caught the last few years have been in late October or in November.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Still plenty of the "cookie cutter" teen-inchers but more of the over-twenties now. I can deal with that.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Had the fillets soaking overnight in the salt-sugar mixture. Got em rinsed and spiced. They will hit the smoker soon. Want me to PM a piece to ya?[/#0000ff]
