My brother and I went there for 6 days of fishing.
Stayed at "Cat’s on the Red". Rented a boat for the time we where there. The River was in perfect shape. The weather also co-operated in being mild to warm most of the time. We were told of another 2 guys from KY. that had been up there a week before had caught over 350 cats! They must have spent 12 hours a day fishing for you can NOT haul those huge channel cats in a boat in just a couple minutes.
I must says having to use barbless hooks works out very well. We did NOT lose a fish by the hook coming out . Once the fish was in the boat it sure made it so easy to get the hook out. So you can lift the big fish up for the picture. By all means take your camera for your pals won’t believe you without the proof of the photos.
We did O.K. landing over 70 Channel cats most over 20 lbs. My brother caught the largest one of 29 lbs.!! Your odds of getting a Channel cat that large out of the Ohio River are very slim. My brother got around 45 and I landed around 28 cats. As a bonus caught around 8 white perch from 5-12 lbs.
We caught 26 cats between 20 and 25 lbs another 16 between 25 and 29lbs. Total weight for the week came to around 1,313 lbs.
Total of 73 fish the average came out 19.1 lbs!!! That is what catfishing DREAMS are made of. Around 90 percent of the fish were caught from the boat. However we did catch a number of them from the bank. The first night there we fished right in front of the lodge and caught 3 or 4 nice cats. My brother biggest cat was caught right at the boat dock.
He almost lost his pole when that monster cat took off with the bait. I hope this has been of some help to anyone thinking about a trip for the GREATEST Channel cat fishing experience going.

Tips on Kayak Fishing It takes a long time to become an expert in kayak fishing. The period of apprenticeship, which must be served in order to transform the novice into a veteran kayak angler can be discouraging and often runs into years.
About the nearest thing to a short cut is to have an old-timer take the first-timer under his wing and let the novice accompany him on kayak fishing trips Basically, kayak fishing is gradually making a name in the industry. Its popularity is steadily creating sustainable gratifications aside from the fact that kayaks have long been used in fishing.
History has it that even in the early times; kayak fishing has long been the primary source of fish supply ranging from the "flatfish halibut" to other kinds of big fish. These activities, which happened from the mid 18th Century until the late part of it, were all noted by the Russian Orthodox priests. These turn of events are now known as "The Native History." >From then on, kayak fishing continued to dominate the fishing industry, where once, people were doubtful if it could really aid the anglers to catch some fish.
The steady feature brought about by its "sit-on" type has long been the primary characteristics of kayaks that made it an ideal fishing boat. However, with kayak fishing, the angler has to learn how to steady the kayak as he tries to paddle through the waters, in which it is considered as part of the whole process.
Therefore, for people who wish to know some tips about kayak fishing, here’s a list that may help them enjoy this tricky activity. 1. Safety first Like any activity, it is necessary that before an individual plunges into action, he or she must first observe some safety measures and background checks to ensure security and protection against any imminent danger.
The angler must check the weather condition, the tide, and other elements concerning kayaking. 2. Hatches should be closed at all times The angler should always keep in mind that it is best to keep the hatches closed while fishing. Water can never seep through the kayak if the hatches are kept closed. 3. Steady fishing When the angler is already in the midst of the waters, it is better to have an anchor to keep the kayak steady while on the verge of catching fish.
Best of all, before an individual goes out to the waters, it would be better if he let somebody know his whereabouts. In this way, somebody will be able to keep track of your activity. As they say, safety should always come first.
