Steve sent me a pic of a 45 pound cat fish, oh my word!!!!! :o Cody and Steve went to Chris Cade's place in Abbeville, South Carolina this weekend. I know what I will be eating next week!!  ;D
Seeing is believing, I am sure he will be sending the pics when he arrives home. I saw the monster it is huge, not on less Steve grew a tall.  :D

Life is good emmmmm!

Here you go ;D They Texed us on the way home and after they pulled the 94 jugs from last night, ended up with a 125# of fillets.

Had a great time, I'll get some more pics up tomorrow when I get time to download them, been putting up catfish since I got home. :) That one was a beast, took the three of us over 30 minutes to get it subdued and in the boat. We got several other good ones 10-15 lbs and a slew of 2-6 lb eaters. Caught another good mess this morning, wound up with over 200 lbs. of fish this weekend. Thanks to Chris for having us down!!! Always a great time at the Cade place. Chris has got me hooked on this catfish juggin' the last couple years, that boy for sure knows how to catch some catfish, hell, he's even taught my stupid butt how to catch a fish or two.

PS-Eddie, we liked our present you left us on the porch :D

had a blast as usual!  wish i had a pic of steve's face when he was lifting the 45# out of the water.  :o didn't think him or the net would take the strain.  i knew it was a big one when it man handled the jug and slowly pulled it underwater.  you don't see that often but once you do, you never forget the sight.  can't wait for the gang to come back down.  we'll hunt for a 75# next time.  the tat is a version of the 1860 south carolina state flag that flew over the state house and charleston just before we shelled fort sumter.  south carolina means a lot to me and i just wanted to show it.
