Bass/cat fishing

Hit my bro-in-laws farm tank again last weekend. Caught a mess of bream and one nice bass. I think I was fishing too fast, and I swapped lures more often than normal, trying to find what they wanted. T-rigged a small green w/gold flake tube, threw it into some shallow weeds, and picked up a nice 15" catfish. This is the same place I caught a cat on a crankbait. Maybe I just aint cut out to be a bass fisherman. Should I buy a bunch of circle hooks and chicken gizzards and see if I can catch a bass?

I was fishing for saugeye late one June evening with a leadhead jig and a chartruese grub worm. I casted on to some rocks in about 1 - 2 feet of water and got a major hit. When I got the fish to the boat, it was about a 5 lb. flathead catfish. I thought about taking it home, but decided that I did not want to clean a catfish.

You threw away some very good eating Some think that flat head is the best eating of all the cat fish

Flat heads "almost" always feed on live animals, they won't eat the dead and stinking the majority of the time, but they have been known to try to eat a basket ball

That's OK, Saturday evening I was fishing a small lake right at sunset, catching a few small bass. Then I hooked into a nice channel cat, he went 27" when all was said and done. He hit a 5" Wave Tiki stik wacky rigged on a Gamakatsu octopus circle hook. Best fish I've caught all year (by a wider margin than I would like to admit).
