Six months ago, I decided to take up fishing as a new hobby. Since then I have been trying different spots once a month and have had no luck at all. This weekend I decided to take a trip to West Lake Tawakoni off of FM 751 at the west side of the bridge. I started around 11 am and finished around 5 pm. I brought home 3 Blue Cats and gave away two to a family member. I was fishing with fresh cut shad on a 5 OT circle hook! These are the two biggest Cats I have ever caught so far. No I am more motivated to get back out there. lol

Welcome aboard cyber Nice catch
Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

Congratulations!!
I was going to say that it's going to take over and occupy all your free time, but then I thought to myself; "He figured that out 6 months ago".

Be sure to gut those and add a little more mud to them before placing them on the fire. Good catch!
