Sam Davis and his son Seth made the drive down to Chattanooga from Sparta, Tenn. on Saturday. They bought a trip I donated to a benefit banquet for a gentleman paralyzed in a fall from a tree stand.

The cats were on fire. We caught catfish in every spot we fished. It seemed we could do not wrong. At one point Seth complained because he didn't get a bite on a particular drift. I said, "Seth, do you realize you just complained because you went for an entire five minutes without a bite?" He grinned sort of sheepishly, realizing that, "Yea, it's been a pretty good day."

We tried anchoring for a big fish... but all we caught were a few measly 10 or 12-pounders.

Sam and Seth went home with a packed cooler... and were really wishing they'd brought a second cooler. That means life is good and gettin' better every day!

Sounds like a great day. I was down on the bank at Pickwick testing out some tungsten jigs and a guy you have taken out several times shows up. It was Larry Gorham. As a matter of fact the trip you just described in your post sounds identical to one of the trips he took with you. Told me that day out with you was the easiest cat fishing he had ever done.

Haven't see Larry in a while. Nice guy... here's a little video of the aforementioned trip I just got around to posting: http://youtu.be/V1ggbznUF7Q?hd=1
