rsimms, Chickamauga and Nickajack, Catfish, Sept. 22-23, 2017, Lockes and Kee

[FishNews]

I spent two days fishing with longtime clients Bob Locke, his wife Susan and their friend, Richard Kee. Friday Susan was "The Catfish Queen," besting Bob and Richard on numbers and size. <br /><br />On Saturday Susan stayed home and let the just the boys come out and play. It's been a while since I had the opportunity to shoot video of a big fish battle. We've caught others but I often have to "coach" rather than shoot video. But Saturday Bob and Richard had it all under control without me so I was able to document Bob's "personal best" catfish ever: https://youtu.be/_Fwg6uqBl8o<br /><br />Sadly, we had two other trophy cats break off. I apparently had a rod with some #40 lb. line that had gone bad. #badguide But over the two days we caught a total of 30 cats with several very nice "kickers."<br /><br /> #luvmyjob #lifeisgood #trophyfish #rivermonster<br /><br />
