On Monday, Chrisper and I took another trip down to the mighty James River to fish for monster blue catfish. With the rather slow bite the last time, we were hoping for some more action this go around.
We got set up, and started getting hit in no time. I got tight on the first fish, which ended up being a 40lb blue cat.
Shortly after, Chrisper put another 40lb fish in the boat.
After those two fish, the wind picked up and the bite slowed down. We hit a bunch of spots, but the bite was picky. Finally, the wind began to lay down in the early afternoon and the catfish began to chew again. In the last two spots of the day, Chrisper caught two more 40lb class blue cats and I caught two in the 30lb range.
We ended the day catching and releasing 6 blue cats for another successful trip!
