So you cooked and chose fish sticks? So then like the commercial was it Gordon’s? Isn’t that the phrase gotta be Gordon?

Mmmm, fish…
Last year, after a long hiatus from fishing in general, I decided that I would fish again but that I would work on catching catfish. I’ve fished for a lot of other fish, but I’d never really gone after the cats. I mean, I can catch bluegill, crappie, and bass all day every day but I’ve done plenty of it and thought that catfishing would be a new challenge.
Here is how bad I am at it. I put a small bluegill on the line and let it free swim, pulling a stick bobber to keep him off the bottom. The bobber went under fast, I wait a half a beat and set the hook. FISH ON! And it is good sized one, too. I ended up pulling the fish through some green slime and a bit of hydrangea which was worrisome, but finally I have this big, wet green blob ashore.
I pull back the slime and the hydrangea and lo and behold… A big ole bass. It was just short of 8lbs and is my personal best. And yeah, I was plenty happy, but dang it, I was fishing for catfish.
I planned all year on catching a couple of nice, eating size catfish (~5lb), but I never caught 'em. I managed one 7lb cat and a pile of 1.5lb that aren’t big enough.
The goal was to catch 'em, clean 'em, fry 'em, and eat 'em. Your fish sticks reminded me that I didn’t manage to have that fish fry and that I kinda suck at cat fishing.

@Topdecker on the Midwest for catfish we go deep, the big ones tend to go for more damaged fish than say a crippled bluegill. We put out lines with sinkers and bloody chicken livers no bobbers. And pull catfish all times of day or night!
