They released them on Monday. They pulled a fast one on us. lol.. I fished there today, caught some panfish, a few channels, threw em all back, didn't feel like cleaning any.

I was out there myself this evening got out there around 7:00 and fished til 8:45. I caught 1 cat and my wife caught 2. All caught on DK punch bait.

WHERE THE CATS BIG or little .I was out there last sat saw a guy get a small cat about 5"long with a large body.

How does this kids derby work...? Do u just show up or is there more to it..?

you have to register, its free i guess they just need a head count. I live a few miles away down norwood, and my boy and his lil cousin will be in it. I went to the rec center on Mary dr off pipeline and just fill out the paper work.

heres the addy and #. let me know if you plan on going. the wife and I are taking the kids. So just let me know

Thanks.... They should have said that u had to register on the website. They make it seem like u can just come on down and fish... If i had known that I would have done that weeks ago...

yes i know. I discussed that with them as well. then they asked if I would be interested in maybe taking over fishing events there. I told them sure, but that the first thing they needed to do was keep the public in formed. It says for 8 to noon and the derby is actually from 7 30 till noon then they said there would not be food, then there would now they say bring a lunch. So as of 3 o clock which i found out was the cut off for the registration. there willbe no lunch served. and it starts at 7 30. and there will be prizes for first fish, biggest fish, and some other catergories. Sorry, i feel like i am so long winded. hope to see ya out there. Will have on my longhorn hat bacards glasses and a sleveless drk blue softball shirt with a orange D on the front and a 29 on the back.
hope to see ya'll out there.

Small cats, eaten size only. A FEW Cats in the 5lb+ range once in a while.

i went out there to look around and saw some nice cats caught im curious what bait works best here i was going to use some worms on the bottom ?

thanks anthony

I just got back from out there. My brother and I got our limit with hotdogs, worms and Magicbait. We caught a lot of mudcats in the process but managed to get our 10 for a fish fry tonight.

The wife and I just got back from out there and caught 5 good size cats (wife-3, me-2). All caught on DK punch bait.

Thunderbolt gave me two of them also. Thanks Bolt. The wind was very strong out there today. I have one question what is that green floating device in middle of the pond?

It was nice meet you Nola. Did you catch the rest of your limit out there? Anything on the shad? That green box looks like a deer feeder to me.

Its a feeder for the fish.

I went yesterday and caught a quick limit with Team Catfish's Secret 7.The fish I caught yesterday were quite a bit bigger than what they have previously been stocking.Probably go out again this evening while the gitting's good

I might head out there myself this afternoon.

How did it go?

Anyone been out lately?

I tried fishing yesterday with some hotdogs but they kept falling off. Any suggestions?

fry the dog. then insert on hook. stays on better

plan B: if that doesn't work insert hotdog in mouth.mmmmmm good

I fished yesterday and got skunked,I think most of the catfish have been taken and I will have to wait till the next stocking.Out of about fifteen people fishing I saw one catfish caught.Does anybody know when the next stocking is,I thought I saw somewhere that it would be this thursday but I got several different opinions while fishing

they stock it every other Thur. if that is of any help.

What kind of DK Punch bait you'll are using? example: flavor

I use worms and Sonny's dip bait and now trying the secret 7 dip bait when i go there. DK never did me much good. Sonny's has a reg. and a blood dip bait and at times one will work better than the other one will.

Its been about a week and a half since i've been out there, whats the latest report anyone has??
