Mark, that catfishlooks like ameal in itself.
Catfish is one of my very favorite eating fish. I get some real good channel cats in one of the local rivers. Great fighters!

first gotta agree with Germ, scary opening this post
Relaxing something I don't get to do very often.. work too much and guess my relaxation is driving to sling some arrows with buddies and Bs about hunting. I also do a lot of home improvement work and read a ton

Nice fish, AF.
Next to duck hunting and bow hunting, crappie fishing is my main thing. A 15" crappie is pretty rare way up north isn't it? Mosta the pictures I see of northern crappie areabout the size of the minnows we use to catch them down here. Nonetheless, great looking fish.

Af, them are some good fish brother and I bet it would be nice to walk out the back door and do it, I have to drive about 1/4 mile to get to the lake.
When I am not in the stand I have many other hobbies, 3D of course, dove huntin, skeet/trap shootin, target rifle shootin, I live on some acreage that keeps me busy too. However, my favorite is floating the Frio River, all the guys I hunt with and their famalies as well as mine take a week every summer and float the river and that is hard to beat!!!!
