Anyone got a long-handle dip net?? Let's go catch some blue cats!

Water is too cold to call them up right now. Works better in the warmer months.
So I've been told

Yea, and they don't work too good in ponds and small lakes... needs to be a movin' current like a River... Neches River, Angelina River so I've been told... Don't know if it's temperature related of in the hot summer, the river's water level is lower and fish are closer to the bottom... Heard they had to be on the bottom or touching something that was on the bottom...

Sure wish I knew what ever became of my uncle's 5 bar... My dad had a 3 bar but that 5 bar would put blue cat right out on the bank just about... So I've been told...

Anyone still have a old Ronco Pocket fisherman?

When we were kids, we would tie a hotdog on the line and catch crawdads by the hundreds out of the bar ditch.

This brought back a flood of great memories

Holy crap. I had one of those in my golf bag in high school so I could make a couple casts on the course. Some of those ponds were crazy good fishing.

“Tacklebox full of memories”
This is an artsy pic I took of my father’s old tacklebox. It hangs in my study
