    Default The "Other White Meat"


    Me and Allen teamed up for a few hours this morning looking for some monster catfish. He has never been catfishing with me since I started targeting just the big fish. Wasn't a banner morning but for Allen it produced his personal best all time big fish. No scales....but guessing conservatively... I believe he landed a 30#er and a 35#er this morning. Both were released to fight another day.

    the 30#er...





    and the 35#er...



    Caught one other fish I reeled in...guessing @ 20 lb bluecat. Had 4 other bites that didn't hook up. A slick water, foggy=-to-begin-with morning and comfortable temps. Stopped fishing at 10:45AM and headed to the house. A great morning and one I'll remember for AWHILE....getting yet another day sharing a boat with my son again.
    Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

    Dang, big ole fishes for sure! I love looking at those big cats. I would like to get hooked up once with one of them but I don't know what to do and I would probably lose the rod. Great reporting on a grand memory with your son!
