john_C Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Damn......... Why haven't I been down to the Grand yet this time of year! What outfit and line test did you use to reel those in?
Gerritt Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Nice cats!!... thanks for the report!.... I still have a hard time bringing myself to touch the buggers! LOL

The Urban Fisherman Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 right on brother! Dunnville isn't all that far away from me, but I can never bring myself to drive out there for a good skunkin'! Thanks for the report dude, UF
purekgw Posted March 29, 2009 Author Report Posted March 29, 2009 as long as you bring sucker meat some egg sinkers and big hooks i doubt you will be skunked every one down there got one
Joeytier Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Thanks for the report. I'd love to make the trek down there this year.
Radnine Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Nice report Brother!!! I wouldn't touch one of those with a barge pole, but more power to you! Jim
J Wilson Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 If you don't mind me asking, what's in the blue barrel?. Nice cats too btw
purekgw Posted March 29, 2009 Author Report Posted March 29, 2009 If you don't mind me asking, what's in the blue barrel?. Nice cats too btw we were keeping like 2 small cats so we threw them in there
johnnyb Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 SWEET! Where do you go out from? I gotta head down there for some of that action!
timmeh Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Dang I was fishing in that exact spot with the same set up and bait on friday and got skunked. No fish were caught between the 15 people there all day so I guess i picked the wrong day to try. Anyhow nice fish, that second one looks like a beast.
trapshooter Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Nice cats, couple tanks for sure. Thanks for the report.
brifishrgy Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 gotta get out there soon .. nice kitties
CRAPPIE Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Nice catch, did you fish the cats in Steve's Marina? Thanks!
Bly Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Those must have been loads of fun to catch. WTG
CLofchik Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 as long as you bring sucker meat some egg sinkers and big hooks i doubt you will be skunked every one down there got one Dang I was fishing in that exact spot with the same set up and bait on friday and got skunked. No fish were caught between the 15 people there all day so I guess i picked the wrong day to try. Anyhow nice fish, that second one looks like a beast. Was going to say, I stopped by on Friday and there was some serious skunking going on, even the boats were coming up dry. Pure, was the bite more in the morning or steady all day? I made up some cat bait and going to give it a shot some time this week.
purekgw Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) yah we where out front of steves and the but outa the whole day really picked up around 4:30-5:00 pm we even got a double header although we were catching them all day Edited March 30, 2009 by Pure
Leecher Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Real nice cats Pure Not bad at all for you guys first time!!! Congratulations Great job and thanks for sharing Leechman
RuNnYoOzE Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 hey Pure great cats! I have caught the smaller Cats but how are the big 1's are they lunkers like suckers or do they fight like mad! just curious!
smokin joe Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 I've always found that the BIG Cats want to stay on the bottom and they will let you know that!! Once you get them off of it they will dig hard to get back there.
b2kptbo Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 (edited) Some good weight to those Cats, good work... Edited March 31, 2009 by b2kptbo
Fishmaster Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 (edited) Headed down to dunville at 5 in the morning to get there and have the whole river to are selves until more and more people started showing up. Glad you young Lads had a good day....guess that was you in the Green Van ringing the door bell that early morning ...please next time stop in the store when it Opens to pay for Parking ...you fished with one of the best shore cat boys on the Grand Ricky Jr im sure he set you up on how to catch these cats as you were moving around in the morning ...
