Went fishing today. Of all things my wife asked me to take her fishing. It is our 41st anniversary. I am so glad I could put her on some fish. These were caught of Catfish Killer's Cheese Bait the original formula. Couldn't find Danny Kings bait.
Went to the 1097 bridge at 7:30AM and fished in 20' of water. ( 18th support from the East side of the Lake). Left them biting at Noon, but she had her fill and I still had to clean them. 32 Cats total for the day.
I am going to try to post a picture, but it might not come out. First time I have tried to post and attachment

Glad you were able to put her on the fish. - Craig

Happy Anniversary! :cheers:

By the way, that can be a pretty good location from time to time. I have a place right around the corner and I don't mind you sharing it at all. That's what friends are for, right? :wink:

To answer your questions, I was in a 16.5 ft Lowes with a 50 HP Johnson.
Yes I did use range qubes. I have a mesh bag and put a couple of handfulls in and weight it with a brick. Let it to the bottom and pick it up about 2 ft. Every now and then I just give it a little shake and it works wonders. If you don't have chum you aren't catfishing.
This board is a wealth of information. I haven't been using it very long, but the more I read, the more I want to read just to find out what is going on around me. I live in Conroe and will be fishing the lake more often. I hope eventually I will be able to give tips just like some of the regulars on here.

I FISH THEREFORE I LIE! ;)

I have fished with the Catfish Killer and used his bait. Bait work well.

A couple of good strikes and it is off the sponge, so rebait your hook often.

You can purchase his bait at www.catfishkiller.com (http://www.catfishkiller.com)

One thing about him is if you don't catch a fair amount of fish, he will take you again for FREE. Find that from anyone else on Lake Conroe.

Not a chance of her cleaning fish. She doesn't even eat them. How many of your wifes will fix you fish and don't eat them. She is from Louisiana and will not eat anything that comes out of the water both fresh or salt, but will fix me anything I want to eat including seafood or catfish. Clean them! Ha! She would let me trade her in for a younger model before she did that. Said she can't stand the smell.
