| | Thank you for that report Eric, I assume this little river has those overgrown Channel cats in it? Down in this country where I live your lucky to see a channel cat over 10lbs. Sad but true. Welcome to Catfish Corner. come back and visit. |

| | I cought 15"-17" burbots in early spring cut'em up in 2"-3" cutbaits, cought channels and burbots with leopard frogs, they were the hot ticket around here, the boyz aruond Winnipeg on the red of the north usually use goldeye, mooneye. I use a sliding rig with a 2 oz. no-roll weight. Line is Big Game Berkley mono, 25-30lb test, well talk to yall later. |
