Fish report from Chandler, Arizona and it’s 73°,
So this evening I stepped down to the lake behind my house, and I threw a 4.25” 5150 worm with a full-curl tail on a drop shot rig with a 10 pound floral carbon leader tied to 30 lb Samurai braided main line using a RP knot.
The standing record on my lake for Catfish has been just under 19 pounds for any type of cat, whether it being a Blue or Channel or a Flathead.
It took me approximately 18 minutes to land this Blue beast, she just would not run out of steam!! She constantly kept peeling my line off the reel at every opportunity!!
I refer to the fish as a her because when I had her on the lawn, she was releasing eggs (roe).
I believe this one to be the “new” Lake
Record at my lake and a PB Catfish for me at 20.88 lbs!! Setting the BAR!

You can take the fisherman out of the salt, but you can’t take the need for fishing out of the fisherman!!
Two afternoons ago … I landed nine cats, best weighing in at 3.75 lbs and 6 largemouth bass, and best 2 weighed over 3 pounds each.
Well folks … it’s been a li!’ while since I’ve posted a fish report, I hope I did OK.
