Now I don't normally fish the falls of the Ohio but wife was having the girls over so I went down there and fished from 8:00pm till about 10:30. I walked out onto the rocks and was about to give up when a seemingly small fish struck at my 5 inch topwater stick bait. I tossed it out there again with thoughts of chatching a white bass and hooked a fish that got into the current and I couldn't turn around! Got another one just up to my feet befor it got off. The third one I landed and it was a darn Catfish, a good 24 inches of catfish. 4 fish later I had lost my all my topwater lures heavy enough to heave across the channel and it was time to head home. What a great time fhishing.
Anybody else ever get into this kind of action before. I had always thought catfish lay on the bottom and eat worms and grubs. Not come up to the surface for a big stick bait treat!
