Catfish Queen

The pontoon is our barge and for Kayla and Grandmaw to sleep in.



The little boat is to run lines and carry rods and bait. Last 4 years we fight and land flathead out in deep water to insure they can't roll up on line and break it at the bank.



The little boat at Salt Fork with the landing net ready to push off and chase flathead down after hooking them.

Mike hooked one in daylight and here is how it works.

It's times like that when a fella could use three hands. It can get real interesting on a dark night at 3 am.

Thats a wild ride for sure!

Looks like alot of fun guys. I got pulled off anchor one night on the river by accident on a big fish, but that there def. saves on gas mileage if you can get him to swim the right direction. rollo

I love the way that pontoon is setup, that could be real handy with the enclosure when it's raining or cold out.

With that video I realized a flathead in daylight presented a good opportunity and as Mike got in the little boat I announced I was getting the camera.

My plan was to shoot the fight over his shoulder but when I got the camera out of the pontoon the little boat and Mike was already out in the lake. My camera doesn't zoom in movie mode so I just got what I could.
