FISHING METHOD ------- 5 rods with slip bobbers

BAIT/LURES USED ------- Herring

NOTES --------------------- I began the night off Dow's. Got one hit which spooled me. I didn't get any bites at the Yacht Club or in River Styx. About 2:00 AM, I settled in at the J House and put out 5 rods with herring under slip bobbers. About 4:30 AM Kevin Kennedy called over and woke me with a call "Hey Fella, you got a fish on!". All of my lines were crossed and even the reels were messed up. I brought the lines in hand over hand and finally netted the largest catfish I had ever caught. Dreams of a 1st Place finish or a club record were soon shattered when I learned that a 17lb. 7oz. Cat had just been weighed in! Congratulations to Jeff Good!
