Blue Cats with Cap’n Catfishonthelake! 8/10

[FASTEDDIE29]

Pulled an all nighter Friday into Saturday to go on a road trip with my buddy Mark. We departed at 1 Am in the morning and were in the water by 6 or so. We found the marks we were looking for and hit the spot lock. Took some time to get the fish to commit due to a slow bite. Finally landed my first Blue about 90 minutes into the trip. Cool looking Catfish but man are they slimy! There slime coat is very similar to an eels. Lol, blehhh! Bite stayed slow but managed to put 3 more Blue Dogs to 20 lbs. in the net thanks to Cap’n Catfishonthelake! He was determined to get on the meat and did everything in his power to get fish in the boat. What a trip! What a fishery!!!??? Man I was exhausted Saturday night but it was all worth it. Mark contacted a local guide during our trip to see what was going on with the bite, he said he had only landed 3 Blues the night prior to our arrival. Bite was off but at least we did a little better than that guy, HEHEHE! We’ll be back Mr. Blue Cat! And we’ll have more tricks up our sleeves to get you to eat. I’m ready when you are Mark! Let’s gem em’! TIGHT LINEZ!!!

You're my type of fisherman Eddie, we can hang any day. Can't believe the bite was that off the one day the stars actually aligned to get you down there. I reviewed the fall catfish calendar with my lady and you're marked for one of the first three weeks of November, same crazy ass run, from dawn 'til dusk, and probably a little after. I'm not gonna be happy until I see you holding a belly buster.

And buddy not to rehash bad memories but you did get a big bite. I saw it hit and was watching the fight on the LiveScope. Probably 35 to 45 pounds but can’t be too sure just looking at the LiveScope. Good fish rarely come unpinned once
they’re stuck but we had other hits where they were just biting weird. Off day but you’ll be back with me soon.

A little bit of side information...they're invasive and not supposed to be returned to the water...but we did.

I just think it's a VERY slippery slope when we start deciding ourselves which laws to follow and which ones not to follow. And if we want to be sportsmen, we should follow them whether we think they're right or not, or else go out and do something about it.[/QUOTE

I'm well aware of that, or else I wouldn't have pointed it out.
