Any information would be appreciated. Thanks

I caught 18 last week nice channel cats about 1/2 had large egg sacks. Caught them in shallow water in the shade.

Caught 24 today and not near as many large egg sacks.So they may be on the way out of the spawn.

I don't think they have on Lavon. Last week I caught mostly males and of the females only one looked ready to spawn. This week has been 50/50 but I the females were more developed. I think they are going to continue for another couple of weeks.

One of the fish I took home from that day out there with you guys was a female whose belly was poaching out with eggs.

Yes I had one ready but the rest aren't quite ready. The water temperature is cooler than most years. May have to go tomorrow with these warm nights
