Catfish Bites My Swimbait
I went to South Holston thinking I would catch a few bass and while I did catch one nice smallmouth I had a bigger surprise jump on the line just down the bank. The rain got pretty hard at some points so I put my rain jacket on and just left it on as the rain kept coming and going. The rocks where I was at were slippery is the main reason I walked the fish as far as I did to get a better landing. I did see another catfish about half the size of this one but I couldn’t get it to come back and bite. I was going to fish for bluegill and other fish for longer but started running out of time. Thanks for watching!
