Wow, Jake that's the biggest channel cat I've ever seen this side of the Canadian border.

Are those lamprey marks? Did you have to peel the bass-turds off of him or were they gone by the time you got him in the boat?

[HotPocket]

I would have to say lampreys? I dont know what else?

Well my work computer wont let me see your pig but congratulations Jake!! Guess who's coming up next Wednesday now! I bet that hit that shad i left for you...

[GBPackerNut]

Hot Pocket, may I ask what river you were on with that last cat that had the circle marks on it? I don't need an exact spot but those spots had me googling lampreys, and holy cow those things look nasty. I didn't even know we had a species like that in Minnesota.

[DTro]

That fish was caught on the MN river.

I have seen plenty of fish out of the St Croix and LOW with lamprey marks and or lampreys attached (they seem to prefer Sturgeon), but none here on the MN.

I would guess that there are probably a few swimming around in the MN river though.

I've seen a few in the Sippi. They sure are neat looking but can do some damage to the fish. I've only seen em on Carp

[DTro]

...well Darren. "Did the big girl fall victim to the smelly shad?"

nope, we left the shad at home last night.

[HotPocket]

Hey nsnutter you know walleyes are not open?

That depends upon where you are fishing.
