Are you sure it wasn't a bullhead?  Can be mistaken sometimes for a cat fish.  I have never heard of a catfish in Nebags or any other nearby lakes for that matter.  Catfish prefer a system that has river characteristics including but not limited to: current, etc..  I'm willing to bet it was a yellow bullhead.  I have caught a few over the years out there.  Not a common catch.  Also have caught sucker as well, again not common though.  Glad to hear the bite is turning on for you.

Might have been a bullhead. Never caught one of those before either.  Had some nasty whiskers. Also had some bite marks on it. It was 12-14 inches. I'm guessing a pretty good sized northern was after it.

Gonna be up again this weekend. That bullhead had some big bite marks on it.  20 minutes prior, got broke off by a big fish. Guessing there's a big nord patrolling out there.  

 

This lake has some great smallie fishing!

I haven't been up in a couple of weeks, but the smallies were great.

 

im heading up in two weeks too.  I like going out a bit before sunrise and throw plastics in shallow this time of year.  Starting at the lighthouse, and work north and east.  Also, like going to where the lake dumps in nebag creek early with top water for nords...about an hour after sunrise.

 

Good luck.
