Catfish for Dinner !! 7 March 2008 REPORT

[RACN35]

Headout the door at 0615 and we were leaving Tony's by 0630 on the way to Hopewell.....stopped for a bite ot eat someplace out in the sticks along the way and an hour plus a half we got to the ramp......bait was easy to get. Too easy, loaded up the net with 30 plus shad in less than 15 minutes........we fished the river all day and stopped when ever we saw bait piled up around the green bouys or the power line towers.....sat in about 4 spots from 0900 till almost dark, boated 9 fish all in the teenage range with no big hawgs at all.....saved a few for the dinner table tonite.....I dont eat them very often but tonite they were good as it gets- I found a new way on google and thought I would share it with you to try.......

Enjoy...headed back tomorro........
