Vouch for what ?

Guys I went cat fishing once this last season,, and just caught one cat

Biggest channel I have ever caught, and did it with light line (not much
of it either :-), I had 4 rods out, three with 20# line,, and I chugged
out a little rod with 8# line, with a tiny piece of liver on it, to see
if there were any pan size cats out there,, of course that's the one the
21.5# channel hit. That was one heck of a battle, he spooled me almost
to the end on the first run, all I could do was hold on, and at the end
I tightened my drag a notch, with my son yelling for me not to, but I
only had three or four turns on line left on the spool, I had no choice

Here is the photo

I need to get back into it,, but the wife is broke,, she can't walk, and
I'm having to stay here to be her go'for, for another three weeks
