yeah, Steve, Chris told me how it swam under the boat and he netted it, lol. If he didnt net it it would have been by far the best fight of the day! Those big channel cats are a blast to catch because of the fight!  |

So I just realized...I could have gotten a trophy pin for that fish ugh. It was 13lb and 24" which qualifies by DEP standards. The minimum is 22" and 4lbs...I had a witness too but I just didn't take a picture of it next to my measuring stick. Oh well..The thing barely fit in my net lol.
