I tried fishing from Shippingport Island for a few hours on Friday night.

This is only my second fishing trip in 7 years, just getting back into because the bug bit me, so I don't have much of an expert opinion.

It was a nice place to fish, I thought. The current along there was pretty strong. Didn't catch anything with lures, so I threw some worms out on the bottom hoping to catch some catfish. I only caught a 16" drum, but still fun.

I'll be back there soon to catch a few of those big catfish I know lurk there.
