Daughter's Catfish...
I am just testing this. Hopefully it will turn up.I just managed to get on a computer, upload pic, etc. Thanks rrhyne56 for your help w/ this. It took me long enough.
This is my daughter's catfish from last summer. It was on a light tackle. I know it isn't flyfishing...but...am still proud of her.

BTW...DShock...I am her MOTHER...lololol. Her dad wouldn't know how to fish even if his life depended on it.

I thought it was against Montana St. law for a Man NOT to know how to fish??? :lol:
I'm sorry I thought you were the Father!
It's only normal for me to insert my foot into my mouth.
I just wrote your name on a Post It note so it won't happen again.
Your a Great MOM!
Doug :D

I figured all men knew how to fish...much to my surprise, he didn't. He couldn't even start a charcoal BBQ.
However, did ya know...a friend of mine emailed me an old Montana Code Annotated w/ very OLD, outdated laws on the books. Evidently it is ILLEGAL for a woman to fish M-F by herself and illegal to fish at all on a Sunday. :roll: Evidently I am a major felon in MT. :lol:

I was a size 8 hook...and an anorexic looking worm not soaked in anything. She was baiting her own hook, casting her own rod. I suggested she bring it in because it didn't go out very far, and next thing we know, it's running upstream...and I mean taking off. :shock: Scared the daylights out of her... :lol: But she regrouped and caught that cat. It was a monster for her... :mrgreen:
Kid Rod Setup: $20
Anorexic worm: $.01
Gas for trip: $30
Huge smile and life long love of fishing: Priceless

Teri,
Channel Catfish surprised me a few times when I used to bobber/jig fish for crappie.
One time I was fishing from a tough spot on the shore and a channel cat (big) grabbed my jig and took off and never came back (broke off).
The most memorable was when I was in a rubber raft and fishing for crappie and I pulled a ten pound channel cat to the raft. I didn't want it IN the raft so I let it go.
I have always liked them because they were pretty good fighters.
