Fishing with big Cut Bait for Monsters

I finally caught a decent size blue Catfish today! I went to centaur chute on the last of the cold days and the water may have been under 50 degrees there. Despite the low water, it was probably still 5-10 feet deep and I threw large chunks of cut creek chub for bait. I finally got a hit and a decent size blue.

Blue CATFISH IN THIS POND!!!!

I have been hunting the mighty blue catfish for years now and have failed to catch one. While I did not catch a huge one at River's Edge, I did catch a few decent size ones as well as some other fish.

Fishing River City Casino

So I went down to River Des Peres for a night hoping to catch the Mighty Blue Gatofish but they just weren't biting there. I did manage to catch a new species and a decent size freshwater drum, however.

Fishing Legacy Park Pond

Decided to try to finally go to legacy park around Cottleville to finally make a video. The pond is about 9 acres big and has some decent fish. Didn't catch anything big but did get a few decent channels.

Catching invaders on the Meramec

I'm back in St. Louis for a few weeks catching fish on the Meramac. Went to a small spillway today and catch a small drum and bass and then hooked 2 decent sized Asian Carp. Good eating if you can pick out the bones.

New Sugar River Spot has lots of fish

I went to a new Spot on the Sugar River at the end of one of the hiking paths to fish for two days. A big mix of species were there including Bass, Pike, Suckers, Carp, catfish, and Drum. Lost some big fish but pulled in plenty.

Fishing for Huge Buffalo on Lake Wisconsin

Went back to fish for Huge Buffalo on Lake Wisconsin. While I did catch a ton of carp, the buffalos were hard to come by. I eventually did get two of them but the biggest one was only 15 lbs. I hope to do better there next year.

Live Bluegill Gill lands big fish on the Wisconsin

Went to Summer Oaks Boat Ramp again after 3 months to fish for some big catfish. The area near the boat ramp had huge amounts of bluegills and some smallies as well. The Catfish did not hit until after 10pm but I did manage a channel and a flathead.

Fishing Tenney Lagoon and Breakwater

While I was waiting for my car, I decided to take a look at Tenney Park and the Breakwater area. Went for two days, only caught 2 decent fish but figured out the best way to fish it.

Fishing for Monsters on the Fox River (Princeton)

I finally decided to drive the 80 miles to the Fox River Locks at Princeton to fish for monsters. I hooked a good size Flathead Catfish but I lost it at the bank but I did recover by getting a really big Carp in the end.
