Hi Hubcat!

Yes, the Contest starts Friday at 4PM and ends on Saturday the 3rd of August at 4PM.

One goofy thing this year...You'll get a permit to transport the "live fish" if your entered in the contest but you have to transport the fish in clean water, not river water!.....its really stupid but they are worried about exotics moving from one spot to another (On the same river)...I guess thats why we pay for licenses.

I haven't been Catfishing alot but I did get a real nice Flathead at Rapidan and Missed another big one (I think) near Belle Plaine. Why don't you E-mail me and next time I head for Mankato we can maybe hook up.

Our first Catfish League "Fish Off" is tonight....Gonna go with cut bait....the river is dirty.

WET NETS!

Dark,

Do you suppose that those catfish are really going to like that city water with all that flouride and junk in there? Or do they want you to take your boat to a different lake and fill up there so that by the time that the water is clean you dumped all of the river water into the lake? Also, I thought that it was illegal to transport live fish in any container.

Yup....seems kinda sideways. I've always had a problem with "Management" and it looks like the same kind of ill-attempt here too.....Oh well, whatayado?....I'll use whatever water I need to in order to get the job done and keep the fish in good shape.

WET NETS!

Do you know when you can register for the contest?
It is kind of a hit and miss for me when I can go catfishing, but we should try to get out sometime. I check my e-mail every day at work so let me know when you are planning on being in the mankato area or we could just plan on meeting some place. My e-mail is [email protected]. I think I still have your e-mail from last year at home.
