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.

You are one lucky guy getting to fish around work :wink:

Those are some awesome looking fish. That should have been one heck of an adventure.

:D Hey Markus,

Good going on the Cats, those are some seriously large Channels. Your fish make the ones that GREYHAWK & I got on the Grand the other night, look like Kittens. Fish were takin on Jig & Smelt Halves during the day & Shad Raps at night. We also got a bunch of Silvers, Bullhead, Sheepies & Walleye on both these baits.

BTW the rig you were using didn't happen to consist of a Sliding Sinker (1oz-2oz) a short lead to a Circle Hook baited with fresh Sucker, Goldeye/Mooneye meat or possibly a chunk of frozen Herring or Mackeral did it :?: :?: :?:

:) For those cats you didn't use chicken livers, you used the whole chicken!

Slip sinker rig + whole chicken... Set it and forget it!
