Being a Channel guy I can see a huge difference between young blues and channels. I know stats say tht the anal fin is how to tell the difference. But I can pic a channel out over a blue a mile away. And i'm sure brad is able to do the same. You catch enough channels and it becomes a sixth sense. The head, the tail, the belly, to me everything is different. It's definitly a channel.

Cool , good deal. I remember the scrap that fish put on...and it for sure pulled like a channelcat. We were dragging baits on a 5' flat and that rod got hammered....thought I had a 20+ blue on the line. An old man " captain Roundhill " once told me catfish go shallow for two reasons..... to f##k and to eat...and spawn had done been over...

Cats will go shallow for a lot of reasons those are just two of them. I fish 1-4' almost as much as i fish deeper water. When they are feeding hard they will go shallow and when conditions are not right they will go there to wait out the negative. In rivers it is to escape the current and save as much energy as possible.
