Flashman Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 My older brother ~Wiskers~, catfishing league is having a small tourney saturday in Grandforks...I think they are having up to 50 two man teams and they are sitting at somewhere around 30 teams at the moment. If I'm remembering this correctly it's $45 per non-league member, and the tourney is this Saturday 8am-3pm pay out is 50% for first, 20% for 2nd and 10% for 3rd. I haven't fished the Red yet this year and I'm planning on heading up there, I just thought I'd through this out and see if anyone else might be interested. It's short notice but could be fun. Wiskers is out fishing at the moment and when I mentioned posting it he said sure, he'll be checking the forum when he gets back to the house later this evening.

Wiskers Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Yeppers I am back and reading it now Ed. The Red has been real good for cats lately too. The Redlake has been Awesome if you can get a small boat in there. I was out yesterday and today and got about 30 cats each day averageing about 5#. Several over 10#. Hope some of ya can make it. I was going to post it sooner but I have been just do busy to even check the forum lately.Any questions please just call or email me. The only restriction is no one can bring any boats that are River Pro's. It is just too hard on me to see them and then I dream about them for a week LOL LOL.Rusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 If I were not busy guiding this weekend I would take you guys up on the offer. Sounds like fun to me. I think "Ol' Viagra" would be safe to bring up? You should be able to resist it's charms and not have to rush out to find one. I'll pass on the event to some Fargo cat'rs and see if they are free to go. ------------------Ed "Backwater Eddy" Carlson Backwater Guiding "ED on the RED" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashman Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 Well, had a blast over the weekend. Was able to hook up with a few kitties over the weekend. I didn't end up fishing the tourney but fished just the same. Saturday evening we just fished off a sandbar below the dam in Crookston. My brother (Wiskers) had a cat on before the rest of us could even put our lines in the water. We pretty much had steady fish from 7pm until we packed up at 1am. Wiskers picked up a 15.5lber and I picked up a 16.8lber, nice cats and we had endless numbers of nice eaters. The bait of choice seemed to be steak and fresh shrimp; I wasn't sure if I should have been eating the bait or putting it on the hook. It was a great weekend, even poured a bunch of no roll sinkers. Thanks Russ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
