Along with trout, bluegill, crappie, huge catfish, drum, etc. I love cat fishing. Around these parts, the cats tend to be channel cats on the small side - say, less than ten pounds or so. We also have horned pout which can run up to 3/4 pounds sometimes. Spent my high school years fishing the Potomac off of Ft. Belvior for catfish. We would fish for channel cats and what we called mud cats. Use worms to catch perch, back hook the perch to catch the cats. We were fishing for that elusive 25 pounder. And, we allways had a case of our favorite beverage along to sip while waiting for the poles to be pulled over. I was fishing Lake Marion last summer with a guide out of Santee - great guy, real knowledgable, put me on a channel cat that was 30 pounds easy. Used a commercial blood bait - we must have caught 10 fish that day, not one under 20 pounds. Good eatin' too. You folks have carp down there? We have lots of Carp in the Potomac and Anacostia rivers. Not much for a fight. People actually eat the Carp even after knowing what garbage the Carp eat. That's a coincidence. I used to have a spot off Ft Belvoir where I'd anchor and use salted eel for catfish. They weren't worth a damn to eat, but it was fun to take nieces and nephews out there and let them catch fish. I'd tell them we had to kiss 'em goodbye when we threw them back. They had little problem with that, after I showed them how, but there momma's didn't think it was too cool. -- Red Herring |
