Hi Everyone
Since I didn’t see a post from Cattin Addict about his big fish he almost caught while sturgeon fishing this last weekend, I thought I heard enough to fill everyone in.
I think this is how the story goes, Cattin Addict, Little Cattin Addict and I Gouge, 
er I mean Eye Guide were nestled among about 6 other boats illegally 
trying to catch sturgeon on an inland river in northern Minnesota 
(secret spot). Little did they know that Mr. Big Fish (80″ 150lb sturgeon) was swimming towards Cattin Addicts bait. Cattin Addict who wasn’t quite in his normal drunken stuper stage was in the middle of telling his fishing partners the story of how he out smarted the [censored] 4 lb northern while ice fishing this past year. About that time Mr Big Fish grabbed a hold of Cattin Addicts 1/2 pound of night crawlers he was using for bait. The rod doubled, nearly breaking in half but it went unnoticed by Cattin as he was trying to impress his fishing partners with that northern story. Eventually Mr Big Fish was able to suck every last piece of crawler from the hook, and although his belly was now as full as a catfish’s belly at the Dam at Lockport during the greenback run 
he did manage to see the 1/2 of nightcrawler that Cattin let little Cattin use. Mr. Big Fish picked up that half of nightcrawler on the end of Little Cattin’s rod- the rod twitched and with catfish like reflexes, Little Cattin drove the hook deep into the rubbery lips of Mr Big Fish. The fight was on- and on and on, Little Cattin did everything just right 
and after 25 minutes of one heck of a fight, Little Cattin laid Mr Big Fish right beside the boat. Cattin who had the net in hand, saw the opportunity and took it, with a quick blow to the kidney and a stomp on the end of toes he grabbed the rod from Little Cattin. While this was taking place, Mr Big Fish was able to get enough energy for one more run and the fight was now back on but this time with Cattin holding the rod. After a grueling almost two minutes, Cattin’s back was starting to cramp and he figured it was now or never and although Mr Big Fish was in open water, Cattin was able to steer him into the anchor rope of a nearby boat snapping the 8lb test Kmart special line he had purchased for Little Cattin. Off swam Mr Big Fish while Cattin stood not so silently 
.
Now I may not have the story exactly right as I was not fishing close by, I was legally fishing Sturgeon on a Northern Minnesota boarder water but Cattin or any of the eyewitnesses please correct me if I got any part of the story wrong.
PS If anyone sees Greenfin Hunter tell him Hi 
from me!
. I just wasn’t on my home turf and didn’t want to argue. I’ve learned to listin if they aren’t writing tickets
