    Nothing brings out the smile like a warm summer night and a flathead!

    “Sure it’s not a blue?”

    No Secret Seven on board, I borrowed it to a daytime channel catfish guide to try out.

    This guy was caught with Team Catfish

    80 pound Tug O War braided line
    Sinkers from http://www.cheapsinkers.com
    Sinker Bumpers
    9/0 Super J hooks

    Time to fill up the bait cooler for night #2. Spose I should check the weather since it was way too nice out last night.

    Heard there might be a Kold Front coming!

    Short night tonight!

    But I would rather be sitting in my camper with wind, rain and hail then out on the water wishing I wasn’t.

    But Dalion, Kold Front Kraigs nephew stuck a pretty 20 pounder before we pulled anchor.

    He did such a professional job, I would never of guessed he was a walleye fisherman!

    Dang, those walleye get big up there!!!!

    Looks like the bite is officially on, think those kitties are done doing their “business” and back on the prowl…another nice flathead!

    Last night was HOT and Sticky!

    We were expecting a short night but the storms that were out there missed us completely.

    We put three fish in the boat. I wasn’t in charge of the photos last night so I only have a fish story.

    Little white mayflies were thick, but nothing like a Hex hatch from a couple weeks ago. Skeeters are at a minimum and it was just another beautiful night to be on the river.

    Taking tonight off for some FW maintenance.

    A great night Brain!

    Dalton metioned several times he wants to go again.

    Looking forward to September.
