Get out and fish The Catfish are at their easiest when the water is high. The Catfish turns into an ambush feeder in these water conditions. The first place to look for is were their is a break in the current. Deadfalls,log jams,wingdams,are a perfect place. Remember that you want to fish both sides of the water break the upper side is a place that holds slack water so don't rush to the down river side. Once anchored cast back to the slack water with your baits some near the edge were the water meets the fast water and some near the shore in sometimes 1 or 2 ft of water. Look for flooded areas were the water is over the bank and the grass is under 2 ft of water the fish are up their feeding on the worms that come out trying not to drown. The bite is the strongest when the water is rising or slack as it drops the fish tend to slow down on the bite. Their is usually organic trash in the water so you will need to watch your lines and clear the leaves as needed the leaves travel down the line and cover the bait. Have fun and please release the big girls for the future. Art

awesome Dave thanks for the gifts even though they are a little North of me. Art

The good news about Karma is it has different meaning to different people. It gives people a chance to express a value that they aspire too or can fall too. If they use Karma as a path to their final reward be it God, Buddha, or a comet and it keeps them from becoming a negative in society then Karma is a good thing. The negative side of Karma is often mentioned to give balance to the scale of Karma. Who can judge a scale if it has no parameters? If a persons scale is defined as 1 for killing someone and 10 for saving someone then he is on the road of major swings in his decision making process. If you scale is closer to society norm. then you have a better chance of not becoming an burden on society. Art

happy B day Brian. Art

Actually in a fit of drunkeness I did ask the Goat if he called them Pickeral he looked at me and said "naaaa" Art

The truth of the matter is the C.O. is not judging you as guilty he is taking a report from what he sees and hears and putting it down as a violation. The decision is the judges as to your guilt or innocents.When you bought the license you were given an opportunity to see all of the rules and by signing the license you are telling them you understand and will comply with the rules. It is up to you to know the rules to prevent you from getting a ticket from the C.O. If you do not read the rules or if you did not call them for clarity on a rule then you are guilty. Send them the $180.00 and don't waste a days wages in court on top of it.Getting a ticket is not personal it is one man doing the job you hired him to do with the money you spent for your license.

Wishing the best and prayers to you and the family Dan Art
