Downhill,
Fwiw, I'll not soon forget that when I was commercial fishing to pay for my spouse & I to go to college, that one Spring morning about 0800 I went out to "check the lines" & found that 11 of 14 "set hooks" had a hefty channel cat. = Each of those channel cats brought us more than 3.oo each, which was a LOT of $$$$$$$ back then.
(Channel cats were easy for April to sell either alive or dressed to order out of the bed of our old IH pick-up. = When I got home from class that night, I found that she had not only sold every catfish but also had bought us a pair of nice-sized rib steaks, served with a chef's salad & a dressed baked potato, for supper. - A truly RARE thing at our house in our generally "poverty-stricken" college days/DAZE!!)
yours, satx
