Took some guys out yesterday and we had 20 fish in 30 minutes! It was fast and furious! Then they shut the water off and it took us another hour and a half to finish our limits! But we still got it done! Using cut Shad in 69fow. Some happy people in that boat!!!

Nothing better than a good Catfish spot where it can be fast and furious ! :cheers2
Unless when get to your hole u have made and another boat is setting in !!!!!'
Since you are cookin with a cajun cooker, I suggest you make a little etoufee to pour over your fish. That is famous down here in south La. Can use crawfish or shrimp.
Oh man that sounds good! Call me Slade when you do it and I'll come down and help you eat it!Quote:

The current forces fish in places that "breaks" the current that food will will get washed by. So....a place that the current is not effecting them but will occasionally present them with food. When they shut the water off....they come out of the places they are using for current breaks and can roam anywhere they want. And the food quits washing by them so they have to go find it. So.......my thinking is....when they shut off the water.....the fish spread out and are no longer congregated. Therefore they bite drastuically decreases. Hope I helped.
Great bunch of whoppers. I love a little change in taste from time to time and those cats when cleaned right can be really good.
Great Job !
What a MESS!! Nice
Nice haul
Nice load of fish, congrats!
Here are a couple pics. One is etoufee made with crawfish, the other is etoufee over catfish, known as Catfish Acadian. I sent you a PM. Danny

Not everyone likes crawfish, shrimp can be used. Make it spicy and it's all good. lol
That looks delicious D!
Chris
Man that does look epic!!!
Lowepro, sent you something with instructions. Hope you like it. "D"
AWESOME!!! I cant wait!!!
"D" that looks great! I tried that etoufee over fried catfish not long ago at a cajun restaurant here where I live. It was really good!
Hay, several people have pm'ed for directions for etoufee. lol I forgot to add, if you use the packs from LouisianaFishfry Products, it works good with cut up chicken breasts or take a deli chicken and pick the meat. My wife and I eat the etoufee this way more than with crawfish. Very quick to make. Great camping meal. Louisiana Fish Fry Products | Cajun Boiled Seafood & Creole Cuisine
