[cool][#0000ff]I'm guessing that was one of your first cold water expeditions for kitties from your tube. It helps if you have a history on a given water, over several years time. Every water is different and changes a lot over the year...and from year to year.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I have been fishing Willard Bay cats since the late 1970s and have fished it for catfish virtually every month of the year throughout a lot of water level changes and fluctuations in the overall conditions. I generally have a pretty fair idea of where I have to fish it and how to find a few chilly kitties, even through the ice.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I don't know Milner but my suggestion is to find some deep holes and look for a winter school of cats. That's how they roll on lots of waters. It is surprising how active channel cats can be even under the coldest conditions. But, you can't catch them where they ain't. Find 'em first.[/#0000ff]
