Went out yesterday

I wanted to go fishing Wednesday but was busy but since the weather was nice still on Thursday I took my son and a friend of his out to the park to fish.  We were getting good bites and I finally hooked in to a big monster well it acted like a big monster but when I reeled it in there wasn't much of a fight so here is my big monster a little yellow belly bullhead.

Getting better

Went fishing this past Sunday with my kids and niece and thinking about going today and use up the rest of my bait but I did catch a 3.15 lb. 23 in. Channel Cat.

Went fishing

Yesterday my son and I went out for an hour I was set for the weather even though I told Nathan to dress warm he didn't want to listen to me but we still had fun cause we were getting some good bites.  So after the kids went to school and I winterized  our boat I went fishing from 10 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. today.   I am glad to be able to report I caught a fish it was a 22 in. 3.22 lb. Channel Cat.  I am planning on going out again a few more times before I take a break for the winter and typing up my year end report.

Pay Lakes

I know I fish a couple of them since they are close to home and when I can't get the boat out that is where I go just to get out and fish but with me learning more about conservation of our trophy catfish I understand why pay lakes are a bad thing so next year I plan to do my fishing differently by getting the boat out more or bank fishing at the reservoirs and rivers close to me.

Been Busy

Since we have been without internet for about a month which we get back on soon I have been able to fish a few times in between the kids football practice and games on Saturdays. I haven't caught any fish but have been using a few new bait recipes that have gotten a lot of bites just no hook ups and thinking in changing hook size but the bait I use stays on the hook better than chicken liver. But as football is coming to an end in the next couple of weeks I will be able to fish a little more as my fishing season is starting to come to an end as well until the spring.
