A beautiful sight

jjirons69 · 03-25-2012, 07:47 PM

Well, to some, especially to you fishermen...

I was just fortunate to spend the past 4 days with my dad and some family friends at his river hideout. We turned crickets into bream and redbreast and then turned them into some damn fine catfish. This was Saturday night's take - 7 flatheads and blues. We popped that grown, 40-lb flathead off the bush hook before midnight last night. Needless to say with the great weather and the great fishing, everyone's freezer is full.

I was also able to enjoy many fine smokes! Can't wait until next time.

Looks like a blast!

Looks like y'all had a great time, Jaime. Thanks for sharing!

Good Lord!!! Great Catch Brother!!!

Salvelinus · 03-25-2012, 07:55 PM

So you're saying you didn't catch them by swimming around and jamming your hand in their hidey holes? Sissy.

Kidding that sounds like an awesome way to spend an evening. I've been seeing some pics of some big cats being caught on Champlain in the past few years, I have no idea how I'd go about fishing for them though.

Awesome catch brother!!!!

Nice looking catch Jamie. Looks like you'll have a couple of nice slabs of catfish off that one

These are the ones you have to look out for...
