King of the Cats 2007 Team River Rats

[Farmboy1]

I was hoping to have an upgrade Friday night, but I figured it is better to have something on the board and upgrade, then have a big goose egg. Hopefully bigger coming this weekend.

[Farmboy1]

Here they are, sorry for the quality but alone in the boat, and the dog isn't very good with the camera! Flathead [image][/image]

Double header. Nice way to break the ice and get on board.

[PierBridge]

Nice Kitties FB...especially the channel.

Ryan "ralph wiggum" and I may have to fly down for an evening of Cattin with you.

Gotta bring your dog with for luck though!

Later Pier.

[Dan Thiem]

[DTro]

Way to go on both the fish and solo pics!

Thanks!

[Farmboy1]

Sorry Dtro. I will send them to you.

Pier and Ryan, Sounds like a good time. I have a couple more spots I want to scout, but if you don't care about a little running and gunning, I'm in.

FB1,

You did stop up in pool two friday night? Head'in down to night for a little channel action. Going to try to get one of those alusive flats up in northern waters. They do not run big and I have only seen two, but they are out there. Going from shore, will report if any fish are caught.

[Farmboy1]

Did not make pool 2. My home waters are pool 4, and I am having a hard enough time learning them.

This weekend the wife wants a date night, and I think I convinced her to do a little flathead hunting What could be more romantic.

Farmboy, if pool 4 wasn't such a drive, I would love to come down there and fish with ya...my dog can't take good pictures either

It's my wife's and my anniversary on Sunday, I asked her if she wanted to hit Mille Lacs up for some 'eyes and she said 'sure'. Now that I suckered her in with the daytime adventure (she only goes so she can get a tan), I might change up to a "late evening" outing for some flatty fishin on the MN river. She's already committed!

[Farmboy1]

This is not so much a hobby, as it is an addiction

Congrats on your anniversary And good luck chasing walleye.

FB1,

I was asking because I had seen a lone fisherman with a dog in boat down on pool 2 Friday night. Went last night and got three channels under what I have all ready reg.. Will retool for this weekend and maybe a outting from shore this week yet. Good luck!

[Grant]

the first, and in no way the last entry for me- 24x14 channel- livers on a circle hook. somewhere on the Mississippi! apologies for the photo quality, was solo with a cell phone camera.

[PierBridge]

I love those self portraits....Good Work!

[harvey lee]

Grant

Great job on the channel. Another points boost for the River rats.

[Shack]

Kick azz! Way to go... Way to go Grant!

[harvey lee]

Here is a goal for the River rats team to shoot for. In the next month I will be upgrading my channel to a minimum of 14# and my new personal flathead will be 40#'s. Its time to rack up some points and I'm going the fish the heck out of the river until those goals are met.

Its time to put the hammer down on those other guys.

[harvey lee]

Tough night tonight. We caught some and lost a few right along side the boat as they came unbuttoned. Nothing big, but a fun night it was. We fished a new stretch of the river and it seemed pretty good. Back again in a night or two and still looking for that 40# flattie.

[Shack]

I hear Ya HarveyLee! I did not get down to river last night like I wanted. Had to cut lawn and other misc. items since the rian stopped. Got a new anchor system yesterday and looking to try it out. Sunday night might be the night we go down to Minnesota River. Going to Strum, Wis. for wifes family reunion, but after me and brother in-law will sneek down and try for a few flatties.

[Shack]

Well, bursted my flat cherry for the season last night. Got on board for flat. Dtro, pics and specs coming soon! Not big like I wanted, but was still nice to have a good old middle of river current battle again. I brought it in on 25lbs mono and heavy action 7' rod. I was redoing my big cat pole, because of knot when I threw out my back up pole. Will post more later, I have to get going with wife. Thanks

Now this week, I will work on upgrade for channel from shore. Up north, there are some good sized channels.

[harvey lee]

Way to go. You can always upgrade as we all will have to do now. Were off to a very good start.

[Mike Steckelberg]

good job on the fish, now i have to get out and get a flattie..when i've been out i've been concentrating on the channels from shore due to the no boat factor(am looking to buy one though)...me and my oldest boy went yesterday and caught a few but nothing for a upgrade...

[Mike Steckelberg]

[PierBridge]
