    August 1st. Catfish are biting well. I move around and fish very similar to how I walleye livebait fish, meaning this is pole in hand fishing where you feel the fish bite and you need to react correctly to land these tough tough fish.

    We have been getting mostly channel cats now and I am averaging ten-pound fish. We were seeing 10 to 15 pound flatheads for a few trips straight but they moved.

    I am using nearly all cut bait and some live bait to see if they want that. Depths have been from 16 to 30 fow.

    Good Luck cats are BLAST!

    Wait a month and Sturgeon will be open as well.

    Some say the tuna boat’s slow down, but certainly couldn’t prove it by me.
