I took a young man fishing that is pretty much a greenhorn at Catfishing. His uncle is the town's dog catcher and the boy spends alot of his time helping his uncle. We kept a couple limits and released that many more fiddlers. I had a pole yanked over the boat's console and into the water. It was sitting on the water and I was holler'n for him to grab it. The kid was in shock or something, had to holler ''grab it '' 3 times before he sprang into action. Rofl
We stopped to clean our fish and the young man said he never cleanned a fish before. That was an experience that took lots of patience to try and teach him how to fillet a Catfish. Needless to say he did'nt get many filleted, but I reassured him it will take lots of practice to master it.Thumbs Up

It takes a special kind of person to teach, and Nimrod I think you are that kind of guy!!!! Congrats on a very patient, and gratifying day. We all know you REALLY wanted that xtra limit of fish--LOL

good catch on those whisker fish.
Get you some cane poles. They'll eventually float back up. My grandpaw would run cane poles just like a person does jugs. Bait 'em and let 'em float. Start chasing them when they took off. He'd run 20-30 at a time.
For a minute there I thought you were talking about me......greenhorn catfishing! I admit to being a greenhorn. Congrats on another good day on the water. You're a good man for taking that young man fishing and teaching him how. That goes for old men too! Thumbs Up Thanks for the post and the pics.
My wife keeps saying I never listen to her....... or something like that!
