I started twitching a bison trout magnet by the boat ramp by my house. I has been a week since I have been able to fish, and it was killing me! I caught a few smaller gills and one bull gill within the first 15 minutes. I hooked into catfish, (I didn't know it at the time), and it made a 50 yard sizzling run. I had a tough time turning it, so I put my hand on the spool to slow the fish down. It took me 5 minutes to work it back to where it was, and it decided to take 25 more yards of line. At this time I was wanting to know what this thing was. I finally got it in and grabbed the 4 pound channel. My mom brought me a bucket and I put the catfish in it. Now here comes the bad news. I went to fish a little bit away. It was not too far but the trees were blocking my view of my stuff. I went back to get my stuff and someone had stolen part of my stuff. They aparently didn't want my fish so they dumped them on the bank. They took my bucket home with them. I also had some pliers, forceps, scissors and a hook remover in my backpack that these idiots stole.
But they left my asthma medicine alone. I was pretty mad because I had to walk back with a catfish in my hand. Now I know why you guys call JPP the home of the clowns.
I will try to attach the picture of the catfish tommorow.
A nice surprise on 2 lb test
