Default I got my catfish.....

It killed me seeing you guys catching cats Saturday night, so I went back on Sunday with some live bluegills and chicken livers. Andy met me there and hung out while I soaked some livers and live bluegills from 8am to 10ish or so. Tried the river first. It was still moving, but I was able to hold with 2 and 3-oz. no-roll sinkers. Even though I kept on the bottom, I think the current was pulling the livers off and definitely effecting the natural presentation of the live bluegill. With an hour before I needed to head home, I went back to canal. Even a seasoned angler like Andy was surprised when I showed him how a 2 or 3-pound channel can swallow an entire, full-grown bluegill. The livers didn't get scratched. It wasn't a bruiser, but at least I got out, got to chill with Andy and got myself a kitty. I'll put a pic up of the cat later along with one that Chris_JC scored on Saturday. Peez!!!
