Fishing BIG Cats on Manitoba's Red River - May 23rd

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

I saw a guy using shrimp about 100 feet from me....I yelled over and asked him, since he wasn't going through too much of it, if I could have a handfull for a snack. :lol:

Mind boggling. What an awesome day that must have been. Those are not only the biggest cats in Canada I've seen but the biggest posted in succession because they were caught that way. Fantastic Markus. What a bunch of great reports today with those cats and RJ's Gar.

Sure beats yesterdays fat bass :lol:

When I saw your avatar in another thread I thought those looked like cats but then I thought, no way must just be weird lighting and those are some huge salmon. I guess I was wrong!! Makes it worth catching catfish for once :lol: :lol: Now I got to go find RJ's thread, I just saw his avatar :D :D
