    Heres one of the average size were catching, I just happened to have the camera with us this day and shot this pic. The same two young guys in the pictures were coming in to fish with bobbers and bluegills just as we were leaving tonight. We had to leave just when the bite was starting to get good, maybe we’ll go tomorrow night.

    The first picture is of Ryan with a channel we just took off of a ditty pole, the second is of my friend George and Paul. I put in another picture of the average fish we have been catching the last couple weeks or so, the ones in the picture laying on the floor are smaller ones of the ones we have been catching.

    The 2009 St Croix channel cat bite has really taken off. I’ve caught 4 fish over 30 inches so far this spring and the season has just started. A 30″ channel cat is considered a trophy cat and the St Croix has been producing some beauties:

    7 May 09 – 30″ X 18″
    14 May 09 – 33″ X 18″
    19 May 09 – 30″ X 16″
    9 June 09 – 30″ X 19.5″

    Here is double from last night and one more that Jennie got

    Jennie’s fish were 28″x17″ for the double and 27″x15″ for the single.

    Andy’s half was 24″, we didn’t get a girth on that one.

    Jennie has had the big fish in two doubles this year. We had a flathead double early in the year that she beat me on.

    Thanks you Andy and Sara for taking us out Next time maybe I could catch a fish too Also congrats to Sara on her first flathead
