Sorry for delayed report. I had the pleasure of of escorting Bruce Gibson and Joe Stephens on the river Wednesday. We were supposed to go Tuesday but bowed out due to rain.
Joe is from Cinncinnati and visiting Bruce. Joe REALLY wanted to crappie fish, but I convinced him that I am off the crappie bite, and into catfish. I don't think Joe was disappointed.emoBigsmile
We hit water at daylight and the fish were HOT for two hours. Biggest fish in the boat were 19 and 20 lbs., but I am certain we had much bigger fish on the line twice. One came unbuttoned and the other bursted off. emoBang But Bruce and Joe had a grand time regardless.
The bite actually slowed down dramatically about the time Cathooker showed up emoPoke, and about the time we had to leave anyway. But from his report, obviously Cathooker and company persevered and found plenty of quality fish.
Me, Bruce and Joe spent just a very few minutes checking on bluegill. We did manage to catch a few of those big monster bull bream (9-inchers-plus). It's about that time... which means life is good and gettin' better every day.
