Ya Dennis..those bluecats are the pitbulls of the river as we say. first hole i ever checked when i was growing up, had a 25 and a 35 lb bluecats in it. I was bleeding from head to toe, but i cought them both. My buddy told me that that's as bad as he's ever seen someone get tore up, and still stick with it and catch the fish. I've ben hooked ever since. That was a long time ago tho, and to this day i've never suffered such a beating. ;D
And thanks Guage, fingers really arent that important ya know...people nowadays are living with no arms and stuff, fingers arent that big of a deal ;D But hopefully by the end of this weekend, i'll have some pics of some real impressive fish to show ya.
