- Catch Story: This was months in the making because I had caught a 30" channel last year but the photograph of it was terrible so I spent all of 2011 fishing season thus far trying to re-catch one. Caught it during the middle of night on a worm + cutbait combo in extreme high flood conditions, which explains why the fish was roaming so near to shore.
