I know we are blessed to have some great fishing here in our own back yards. As good as our local fishing is I still dream of getting in on some of those big Mississippi River cats! Not just because of the size and numbers but because of the whole river experience and the travel/vacation part of it.
How about you? Where would you go if you could take a week long trip to chase catfish on any body of water in the country?

Tennessee River below Pickwick Dam! I have fished it four times and would go again today! Twenty to thirty pound blues are a load of fun! April is the time to go, watch the generation schedule and fish when they are generating. Turkey livers and skipjack drifted on humps. Nothing like it.

Cool! Sounds like I need to spend a little time on YouTube checkig out the James River. I may have to change my wish list around a little.
I didnt know the Florida rivers were full of flatheads?

Right where the Mighty Mississippi and Missouri Rivers meet, the James River and probably one of those Tennessee lakes too.

I wanna fish the Tennesee river with Phil king, fish the James river with Jimmy Weir, fish the Lockport dam in the red river-Manitoba with Doug Stange, flathead fish tributaries of the Mississippi, over seas for a Wells catfish would be cool. Of course the Amazon for Redtail, Piraiba and Peacocks.
