Sorry, ya sawed off little Texican. And for the records, I am about 100 percent German and too stubborn to
argue about it. I got a 20 foot row of okra going in the garden. We'ons are about at the north stretch
of it being it able to mature.

Zim,I didnt know you were a bohemian-maybe Savell meant behemoth.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Savell, do you have any of what I would call our native blues? They are a darker blue with big bulldog heads and big lips. Even the smaller ones have a noticeably larger head and dark color. They aren’t good eating at all, nothing like the white meat on the high fins.

.... having trouble getting them on fresh cut shad/bream this year due to an abundance of small cats ... small live bream or bought goldfish is what’s working now

That’s funny right there. Speaking of broke down pulpwood trucks, there use to be those old post and pulpwood trucks in every other yard with the hood up and the rear end out. 6 or 8 years ago when the scrap price went up those trucks disappeared. Never see em any more. I don’t know of any place around that still buys short wood and only one post plant still in operation.

OK......to me it sounds like what y’all are calling native blue cat are male channels over 4 lbs or so in early summer ...they’ll look a lot like them but won’t have the hump on the back... and dark bloody meat when you clean them

I will have to try to remember to take a picture of one and put on here. My buddies will think I’ve lost my mind taking a picture of a nasty ole blue.

The best way to tell the difference between a channel and a blue is
Blues jaws come together
Channels have an overbite

Don't have blues here, wish we did

Savell, I'm ashamed of you. What sort of backwoods living, lone-star drinking, honkytonking, slap-taming East Texan BUYS goldfish for bait? I suppose next you'll be buying worms so your boys don't get dirt under their fingernails picking up nightcrawlers? This is a sad day in America.
