 Never in my life have I caught Mr. Whiskers on a popper before. Today I caught two-this was the lunker of the pair.

Caught one wiskerfish in my whole life on a topwater and it was on a Zaraspook on traditional tackle obviously. It happens but its rare and cool when it does.

Wow that looks like a black bullhead !! That's even crazier. I've caught a channel cat on popper before but a bullhead is pretty wild.
John 5:24 Very truly I say to you,whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life,and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.
1Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit.

Steve where do you live? Below the dam at Lavon its teeming with catfish eager to take a fly !
Also this time a year the catfish are spawning. Any rocky area like dam riprap should have some cats. fish a white pistol Pete. they love that.

I'm pretty sure you are entitled to pick on me every day, including, but not limited to federal holidays, religious holy days and Kwanzaa. My fault really, I keep giving you material! J.

Okay, I first suggest that you "go fishing". But, before you do that follow Christian's advice.

well the spawn only happens in may and sometimes into early June. So fishing the rocky areas might not be as effective in July.
