Gary and I had scheduled a &quot;test&quot; trip for today to see if the action was good so he could bring his father here next week to fish for cats again. Judging from yesterday, it&#39;s a &quot;yes&quot;, but today was completely different than yesterday.<br /><br />We went out for 3 hours (expecting to be driven off of the water by the 60% chance of thunderstorms which were forecast), only to find that the water flows were absolutely marginal and that the blue catfish weren&#39;t having any of it today. Lots and lots of tiny nibbles by those 3-to-the-pound size, one nice hit that I broke off (bad spot in the leader!!!) and a grand total of one 6 lb fish for each of us. We had a very good time together again, but I have failed Biofisher miserably for about the 4th time - we still haven&#39;t pushed his personal best above the 20 pound mark! We&#39;ll do it one day Gary!!! Here&#39;s a pic of Gary and his cat - I sure didn&#39;t have to waste many pixels today photographing fish.<br /><br />I got out fishing 2 days in a row! YAY!!
