Last night I had some last minute shopping to do so I swung by BPS in Grapevine. I was having a tough time picking out what size bobbers we would need and finally settled for the medium size. Also picked up some stink bait so now we're in bidness.  This is going to be the best catfishing trip ever..  Stay tuned.

Falcon is one of the best and easiest catfisheries in the state. Gonna be kinda tough in 6 foot swells tomorrow though, Dustin.

Going all the way to Falcon for catfishing is like going to Ruth Chris Steak House and ordering a bologna sandwich!
