Well in the world of Blue Catfishing this is prime time! I am looking forward to the coming weekend and breaking out the boat for the first time since october. I have been struggling with an irregular heart beat since last spring that has limited me to less frequent fishing. I am planning to make a run down to the Niangua and see if I can tangle with some winter Blues on Sunday. I have planned several such trips this fall but my wifes refusal to let me go alone has caused some cancelllations. My son-n-law(shad net thrower) has been deer hunting and he's finally gotten it out of his system so we can get on with fishing. I felt the need to begin a blog here so the Catfish would have a voice on this site. Its 1:39am on Jan.11th 2006 time to charge the boat batteries and lube the reels. I look forward to posting some pictures if this blog allows and maybe giving some tips to anyone heading to LOZ for any species. Tight lines and bent rods.
