We headed out about an hour after dark. 

Set up 2 rods with fly lined macks. Spoke with the ranger who confirmed there are some serious channels in here, biggest one caught weighing in at42 lbs.

An hour passed and the rod i had set up for the gf did a solid bendo. I told her to grab it which she she refused and told me to. I did so and brought in this decent kitty.

Was their something wrong with the catch?

Think there is something wrong with Tom.

The only problem I have is that it is too big.

I think Tom is confusing your post on the catfish contest thread with this post, thinking they are the same fish.

Thanks Chad. I'm quickly checking multiple times throughout the day and working on 10 things at any given time at work. Combine that with getting older and this is what you got...

Nice contender. I see you have some Hurricane holders. Those are awesome!

I may make a desert run Saturday for a flathead. No dice on that, off to a lake.
