who says you need to fish for catfish at night, and with stinky bait my buddy got this during the day on a crawler, 2nd one this yr about the same time from same place. weighed 3lb 12oz and was a good fighter. managed a few perch and a pike that got away just as we were going to take the pic before release. guess it was not a bad day after losing the trolling motor last night. at least the new one will be here soon
