Finally successful at Willard

[jjannie]

Good to see your success rate is going up.  About Willard Bay Kitties...I have caught and eaten catfish from waters all over the country...and there are none better eating than those from Willard.  And if you properly prepare them you will agree they can compete with most of the other "desirable" species. 

Here are a few writeups that might help.  The biggest thing about cooking catfish is to be sure to cook them long enough.  They have heavier flesh than a lot of the "white meat" species and need a bit longer in the pan to firm them up and cook out excess moisture.

Much appreciated!!!! Looking forward to getting back out there after the long weekend.

Nice job glad you've got some. we too hope to get out again mid week once again. We'll watch for you, what's your boat look like so we can say hi? We're in a white and silver Hewescraft. Haven't found anyone who doesn't like those eyes!
