That was Steve (BorderlineCrazy) and he was fishing in 5' of water on Lake Tawakoni. He called me and he was excited to catch such huge cats. He said the biggest was over 40lbs. They keep 5 cats that wieghed over 150 lbs. He said they were caught on 6" gizzard shad. He said the one cat he caught took him about 45 minutes to land.

clap.gif. I've always heard that February is the best time to catch big blues.  It's always too cold for my liking.  I've always waited until March.  :grin:  For those that have never caught big catfish, put it in your bucket list!  It's a huge rush!  Congratulations Steve!!!!  Nice catch!!!  When's the fish fry?
