I love cat fishing. *Around these parts, the cats tend to be channel

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.


A Texan I know told me that some Texas cattle ranches have big "Carp
Cook-outs" during the spawn.
These are the ones with extensive irrigation ditches where the carp
can grow pretty big.
During the spawn the cowboys "round up" the carp by whooping and
hollerin' them down the canals, closing canal gates as they go.
When they get them to no-way-out end pool they wade in and pitchfork
the carp out into truck beds and bring them to the ranch house.
The way they cook them is pretty interesting. *Build a big bonfire of
brush and mesquite wood on soft earth. *When the fire is down to
embers bobcat approximately 1 foot of hot earth and embers aside, and
place the fish in the depression, then bobcat the earth and embers
back over the fish. *Build another fire over it that'll burn a couple
hours.
Now before the carp are tossed into the pit that are encased in cow
manure. *I think this guy - his name was Rowdy - said the name of
the carp dish is called "Carapaced Carp."
While the second fire is burning everybody's drinking iced Bud and
doing the dosie-doe to the sounds of a local square-dance band.
When it's time to eat the bobcat moves the fire off the fish and
everybody sits down to feast.
Rowdy said when that firepit hardened dung crust is cracked off you
can see the clean white carp meat shining in the sun, and steaming..
I asked him how the carp tasted, and he looked at me like I was crazy,
and says,
"Hell, boy, we throw that damn carp away. *It's the crust that's the
good eatin."

Carp??? *No thanks. *And no thank on the bottom feeding catfish unless they

Yeah, you've bought into the idiotic notion that catfish are somehow
not clean. Must be hell to not be able to read and learn on your own.
Here, learn something, or at least try:


Habitat - Most common in big rivers and streams. Prefers some current,
and deep water with sand, gravel or rubble bottoms. Channel catfish
also inhabit lakes, reservoirs and ponds.


Feeding Habits - Feeds primarily at night using taste buds in the
sensitive barbels and throughout the skin to locate prey. Although
they normally feed on the bottom, channels also will feed at the
surface and at mid-depth. Major foods are aquatic insects, crayfish,
mollusks, crustaceans and fishes. Small channels consume
invertebrates, but larger ones may eat fish. Contrary to popular
belief, carrion is not their normal food.


Eating Quality - Considered one of the best-eating freshwater fish.
The meat is white, tender and sweet when taken from clean water.- Hide quoted text -

Years ago I used to go to north Hartford and stop in at this little
catfish and chicken joint. It was greasy but the deep fried catfish
was well worth the risk of parking there...- Hide quoted text -

If you ever find yourself on I-75 in the vicinity of Live Oak, FL not
far from the GA/FL border, you'll see bright colored billboards for
Sheffield's Catfish House. It's a run down looking truckstop with the
best catfish I've ever tasted!- Hide quoted text -

Tell him to check it out, he'll think it's a dump, but every single
person I've told to stop there has thanked me afterward.

It's a very small town and a pretty much "isolated" area, but it is near
the Suwanee River. Used to drive by the road signs to Live Oak on my way
to and from Tallahassee. I think there was a truck stop on I-10 near
Live Oak. Maybe it was a burger joint.

I assume the name of the town comes from the "evergreen" oaks found
throughout Northern Florida (and much more of the southeast). It's a
nice wood, strong, but the damned trees are fragile and lose limbs easily.

What do you think the evergreen oaks are, village idiot?- Hide quoted text -

Again, your childish low life insults show you don't know what in hell
you are talking about, Live Oaks aren't in any way or form
"evergreen". They are deciduous.

I-10, I assume the name comes for a shortening of Interstate 10, in
Florida and Georgia they use concrete for the driving surface. In
Georgia they normally use granite gravel as the base, and then use a
granite dust called Crush and Run to smooth out the base before pouring
the concrete. In Florida, they often use a limestone/shell crush as the
base.

I find the concrete doesn't have the problem of pot holes you often see
with asphalt.
