We used to catch catfish in Clear Lake, CA by hand. They would spawn in the
tires used a dock bumpers. The Sacramento Delta has millions of tasty
catfish. White cats. about 3/4#. We get some larger yellow cats, but they
just do not taste that good. Mostly we catch them on Freshwater clams and
sardines.

Was surprised to read in a local paper down there once, maybe '88,
that a local caught a catfish of about 100 pounds. Can't remember
exactly what lake it was unless I'm reminded, but it was real close to
LA. Maybe it'll come to me.
