Yer Funny...

But actually, people used to kid me about hiding my catfishing, while

trying
to look like I was bass fishing. Bob Rickard even nicknamed me Catfish
Charlie! I've had lots of catfish eat my bass baits...

Hi all,

Went down to the little lake next to my home Sat to wet a line.

Threw a white spinnerbait a few times and decided to fish a small

inlet
I
had not fished before.

I threw once and about 10 feet from shore...WHAM!...almost lost my

rod.
No
jump, durn, must be a cat...sure enuf, about 10 minutes later a 26"

flathead
cat emerged. Reached dowm w/ needlenose pliers and quickly lifted

him/her
out to show to the kids. Must have weighed 10 or 12 lbs...had 12 lb

test
mono on. Well, after asking/joking w/ the kids to see if they wanted

it
in
their pool or no it went back to the lake where it sat still for

almost
5
minutes recovering, and then splashed off.

Question: Do any of you guys have cats that slam your baits on

ocassion?

This is the 7th or 8th I have caught in the last 3 years while bass

fishing
with artificials.
