Lee Dunn's wife bought him a fishing trip with me as a Christmas present. emoThumbsup Lee brought his friend Justin along. The two of them keep the helicopters flying for the Knox County Sheriff's Dept.<br /><br />What can I say... Lee and Justin timed it well. We actually struggled the first couple of hours on a pattern that's producing a few fish, but today it was very few. I switched gears and tried something different... Bingo, Bango, Bongo... we smoked 'em! emoApplause <br /><br />From about 9 am until 2 pm we caught at least 250 lbs. of catfish. We had a perfect mix of big blues and hard fighting channel cats. What can I say... it was an awesome day, and we left 'em bitin'! <br /><br />Justin had the big fish of the day with a 50 lber. Lee smoked Justin on numbers, but the biggest fish he could come up with was a mere 44 lber. emoBig A pair of Hall of Fame fish, all fish caught on spinning tackle with 10 lb. test line. I'll give you three guesses as to our bait of choice today. emoScratch <br /><br />And that means life is good and gettin' better every day! <br />
