Interesting Channel Catfish Pattern
Last weekend the kids took me cat fishing for Father's Day in 2 hours we caught about a dozen.. With sauger and walleye to boot... One of the catfish had an interesting pattern... Has anyone seen anything like this before?

Juvenile cats often exhibit spotting. It's pretty normal.

Thanks!

We ave been thinking about a boat but at this time it does not fit into our lifestyle right now. The kids are young so going through all the hassle to go out for 2 hours is not quite worth it. Not to mention storage and maintenance. Maybe in 5 or 6 years.

Right now I have been using guides for specialty trips with a couple of friends. It's pretty cost effective when split a couple of ways.

This trip was a fathers day special by ORGF (Ottawa River Guided Fishing) who does special 2-3 hour kids excursions.

Nope............Digenetic fluke metacercariae perhaps..
