That is an impressive looking catfish. Nicely done.

Thanks.
The catfish was too big to eat. If I harvest a Channel Cat, it needs to be between about 14-20 inches. That fat boy was like two feet long. I don't like the fillets after they get over an inch thick, so I always set the big ones free.

I never thought of it that way but now that I do you're right. Don't really like my fillets more than an inch thick myself. And Beerguy, I agree victory is a better choice but Sammy A is a much better choice than the summer shandy bottle I saw left at one of the spots I fished earlier today. Not only litter but shame was left on the shoreline with that bottle.

Nice fish. I've been out there the past couple mornings for some crazy topwater action. Im the blue glowing thing out there at 4am. Can't wait to get the permanent led lights. I'll be looking out for you. Stay away from the salsa music areas on the weekends.I launch from an alternate area because of the reasons you stated.

I'll keep an eye out for you, too.
I've never kayaked after dark. Too scarey.
I have noticed when I'm packing up in the evening that there are a shadowy group of kayakers that come out at night and have LED lighting in their kayaks and on their heads. One of the places they launch from is that backyard with the folding chairs set up by the water's edge.

As for the beer; I'm not a beer connoisseur or even know much about beer, but I know what I like. I thought the Sam Adams Rebel IPA was pretty good. It was very hoppy, but not sour, with some citrus notes. A good summer-time beer. It's also 6.5% alcohol, which is a nice kick.

No I haven't recognized any spawning activity, but there are always a lot of carp at Spruce Run.
