What you supposed to do when three coolers are full and you have 14 fish on the floor of the boat, then you clean them and fillets wont fit into fillet bucket? Nice problem to have. 86 fish by 12:30. Folks from Waco, Keith, Paul, Austin, and John enjoyed the problem Saturday to say the least. Last picture is Howard, Omar, Maraco from Anderson, 55 fish by 11:30 am Friday Smiles tell the tale. Fished Fayette County Lake, 5-15 foot water, SureShot punch bait. Weldon www.fishtales-guideservice.com

Perhaps you should try "catch & release", but keep what you can really eat.

I'd be more than happy to help you with those fillets.  Nice mess of fish.

Way to go guys! Get some rest, I know that cleaning job is hard. I tell you this, if you want catfish, wear a Texas Longhorn tee-shirt! Works everytime!

I would have started throwing them back after about 15. I hate cleaning fish. Its too time-consuming. I actually usually don't keep them unless theyre over 2 lbs.
Great job though! Yall murdered em!

When you are a guide, if the customer does not go over his limit, and wants to keep all the fish, then there is no such thing as "Overkill". I can see you selling gasoline, and telling someone if they get over ten gallons it is OverKill, yeah, right, and your business went where???...same goes for for most things in life.
I feed the neighborhood association, donate fish to fire department, etc, so it does not go to waste...I also feed three of my grown children and families with the fish that I keep.
Today I took the daughter, son-in-law, and wife, they fished I baited and dipped fish....30 in the cooler which we cleaned, and then we released the last ten.
The old saying, One mans Junk is another mans Treasure....
One mans OverKill is another mans limit. Go fishing, Have Fun.
