Right off the bat I found one cat with dorsal sticking out of the water. Tossed a lead eye bugger from about as far as I can cast, landed it 8inches from his head - slow slow retrieve; fish on! Gotta love when it comes together like that. Fished for about an hour and didn't see another fin.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09155735669744216514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8701846661540905420.post-8286637360135887072011-07-27T19:35:04.720-05:002011-07-27T19:35:04.720-05:00Fun... lots of fun.

I had plenty of opportunities at red tails but don't get the impression that I was hammering them. Only hooked up with this one. I've caught some big cats on tackle and can only imagine a 10lb catfish on a fly rod.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09155735669744216514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8701846661540905420.post-49104783872958299462011-07-27T14:43:52.311-05:002011-07-27T14:43:52.311-05:00Very cool John.
