Mrs. Hillbilly:
Chris you and Steve just needs someone to cook & clean the fish.  :) If I come down I would like to do the bow fishing with the gar, and stand back.  ;D

when i get back from jamaica, come on down.  the carp and gar should be really rolling in the shallows about then!  work on steve for the weekend of 4/17.

PeteC:
Nice bunch fellas.They're bitin' over here too. ;) God bless

JW_Halverson:
Aw man, when I think back on the thousands of pounds of channel cats that I threw back into the Missouri River up in North Dakota when I was chasing them ugly-butt walleyes I can only greive, grevious grieving!

Nowadays I am better edjumakated, and we hit the Belle Fourche ( bell foosh ) river every chance we get in the summer for beautiful silvery-blue channel cats that generally run 4-8 lbs.  We found the best bait is a frog, the second best bait is uncooked 50-60 count shrimp.  On a good night we can turn a pound of $6 shrimp into about 75 lbs of whiskerfish.  

Of course, in the natural progression of things, we have to sip a barley soda and stoke up a nice Dominical long filler stogie in order to get the fish to bite.  Well, maybe they bite without beer and cigars, but we ain't the ones to risk getting skunked.  

Mechslasher:
will have to try the shrimp next time.  always on the look out for the next great bait.  got to be easier than using 2" shinners that have been cut in half.
