We got out Friday evening to do some cat fishing for awhile. We was just getting all our poles put out when Dakotas rod starts to slowly go down and just kept on going. I could tell he had a nice catfish on and he was struggling to get the rod out of the holder it was fighting so hard. He got the fish up to the surface after a little battle which he enjoyed every minute of emoLaugh . It weighed 40 pounds so it was his new PB so far. As the evening went on we caught several more cats in the 15-30 pound range. All fish were caught on cut skipjack and were released to fight another day.

Sweet! Do yall ever lose fish right there due to them wrapping you up in something? We used to catfish there and there's something that they can get into because we would lose some good fish.

We have not lost a fish yet where we usually fish at.The floating fence has anchors with chain or cables that you will get hung in if you get to close.
