The Falls

Mark, did you load up the freezer??? You know what it was like last year when the bait was hard to come by...I had one arm longer than the other throwing that net lol..

No Chuck I didn't I'm sorry I should have. I might beat you down there Friday if you want to put up with me again and I'll catch us a bunch of skips for bait. Them whiskered rascals cannot refuse the skipjacks, it's ''CatfishCandy".

You know I allway's have a open seat for ya brother, I been thinking about gettin one of them vacum packers I think there about 60$ at Kroger. That would keep them skips about the best I think other than fresh.

I was one of the guys that got poured on. At least I had my rain jacket. My partner just got soaked. Yep, the sun then came out and all was well.

We had some "mushy" liver so our bait wasn't the greatest. We did manage to catch a bunch of cats.

Lots of rough fish rolling all over the place. It looked like a pod of dolphins surfing out there !!

Asian Carp mostly.

Sometime I wish I could just blow em all up when they are that thick up there like that.

I have a BAD feeling that these guys are going to cause a serious problem for us in the next 2-3years.

Jason, I think it's allready pretty bad , a couple years ago I walked over on the rock below the second dam when they had it shut down looking for some shad. When I got right behind the dam there were hundreds of them, all 2 to 4ft long everywhere. The guy's up on the dam with a better view where shouting at me saying look at that. I just nodded and threw my 1oz rooster tail out for some fun, when it hit the water it was like a bomb going off , they shot out of there some airborne ....scary stuff right there...Sad part is we can't even snagg for them anymore on the Ind. side so they have the run of the mill.Chuck
