I talked to Fishtex and we agreed. We are going to catch some cats out of Lake Austin tonight. We plan to set a new lake record.
Last time we got our wish. This time we have a certified scale.
Wish us luck. We will need it. I have never even been on that Lake before.

I have fished that lake many times. Where are you going to fish, and how? There are some channels out there that might hold decent blue cats. I never caught much in the way of catfish out there, but I have poked around trying to catch them. Good luck, and tell us how you do.

I have no idea what our plan is. We will play it by ear.
I will post Monday about our results. I will be sure to include lots of big cat pics, I hope.

Pics on the way..
We caught no catfish BTW LOL
It was a record shad that Fishtex shot with his bow. There is no current shad listing and his was 1lb.
I did not care for that lake. We sure found the shad and I mean millions of them stacked up in a long(maybe 1 mile long) 10-15' wide channel dug between the rich peoples homes.
Why is there never a bait source that easy where I catfish, is what I kept asking myself.

At Calaveras lake I caught a 18.75 inch shad on a half once ratle trap, with a hook in its mouth. We didnt get a weight on it, but he made some huge chunks of cut bait.

They had the 360 ramp closed a few days ago when I tried it.
It's a hard lake to catch catfish on. It's a great bass lake though.
