Didn’t leave the skin on, I had skinned and filleted the fish. How big was that cat, looked like one of your better ones so far this year. So were you boat or bank fishing? Congrats on dialing them in, you’ll get a bigger one soon at the pace you have going lately. Good luck. J
Thanks! It was 27 but I took some seriously crappy pics. All fish have been from the bank. Guess I’ll have to try again[:(] this
catfishing is just torture.
With the cold this week, I think I’ll try trout this weekend and hopefully they will bite, but I’m sure wanting to get the cats going I love to catch them they fight so well. Plus I need to get some on the score board. Seems like your 27" ones will be the average starting point for the contenders. For me they will probably be close to my best. I got several that size last year and one 28 but I haven’t broke 30 and I’d sure like to do that this year. Well good luck. Later j
Don’t worry Jeff, I haven’t broke 30" yet either…my best is only 29" and that was before we started doing the cat-contest.
We just need to hang out with Catmaster and our luck will change. Been a weird spring thus far. Haven’t caught any contest - worthy channels… yet. I’m not ‘too’ worries…it’s only April.
Yup you’re right it is early and we should follow the Catmasters examples, he can sure charm the kitties. I can’t believe he is catching such nice cats where he is fishing. Well good luck if you venture out this weekend, be careful of the wind and lightning. Later J
