I would have thought that pic was with those boys Mama. Glad you specified and great catch.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Thanks... they’ve been a little slow this year, but caught them feeding out in the river channel in 25-30 foot

J. , being from Wisconsin I ain't got much of a blue catfish eye. Gonna guess 2 to 8 pounders?
How much good fillets will you get out of that?
Enough money left over to buy you a haircut and a pair of shoes for Bud?

As always, Zim

Savell can you remember when you first started catching high fins? When I was a kid we had channels and “regular” blues, we call them something else but in today’s political correctness I won’t say that word. It wasn’t until the mid ‘90s when I saw my first high fin blue in lake Eufala and it was called a Mississippi white or white channel. Only recently we have started getting them in our local rivers. The research I have done online, the biologists do not distinguish them from “regular” blues but they are definitely a different fish.
