    I seen the catfish guide today that In fishermen puts out once a year. There is some pretty good articles in it. It should be out pretty soon. I helped with a few articles so they sent me some copy’s in the mail. D. Strange said they will hit the shelves early in April.

    I picked up my copy today but haven’t checked it out yet. Quite the cover though….She looks too clean to be bankfishing catfish I think.

    Looking forward to getting one. I sure miss the old catfish guide than ran 4 issues a year, but I’ll take what I can get. How is the fishing down there in Hoosier country? Blues still going strong?

    Hey Dark, where can I buy the guide?

    I’m looking forward to both mags. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Pro-Cats Magazine it’s an on-line mag that puts out some GREAT catfish information in my opinion. If your into catfishing the In-Fish and Pro-Cats is where its at as far as written info

    They sure got the timing right! Everybody is chompin at the bit to get out and wet a line! Actually, I’ve already had the pleasure of pullin in a few big city kitties already…Nothin over 4 lbs for me but there were a few over 10 caught….Mississippi/ Mpls is warming up nicely!

    Mile 832, I picked mine up at a bait store. Last year I ordered it from IF over the net.

    Mile 832 Our local Wal-Mart usually have them also. That is the only place we have to buy them. Hope that helps. If not Dark30’s right you can order it off the net also.

    I think all you guys should email InFish and push for at the least a quarterly mag.
    I have emailed several times…Of course no one listens to me!
    I even mentioned it to one of the editors on the river last season. I should have told him he’s walking back if he doesn’t promise to put out more issues!

    I’ll have to check out Pro-Cats. It was a free site at one time wasn’t it?

    In-Fish must not make enough $$$ to publish the Cat Guide more than once per year. Actually, I think they came right out and said that when they discontinued the 4x/yr Guide.

    Dirk, I think your exactly right. Not enough interest to warrant publishing a magazine more than once a year…if that. Besides, those watercolor pictures of little black fish sittin in the choice spots are all starting to look the same.

    Dirk,
    Thats what I was told also. Actually it was that there is less tackle promotion involved. Catmen aren’t filling their tackle boxes full af assorted colored lures. “Just a few sinkers and hooks.” So there is fewer companies willing to pay the big advertising bucks to support it.
    Heck, I’d pay an extra couple bucks to support a quarterly mag.

    Heck I’d probably pay $10.00 per issue if they brought it back. You couldn’t pay me to read a BSS magazine though.
