<td></td>Species: Channel Catfish <br/>Angler: Tom D'Auria <br/>Location: Florida <br/><br/>Here's a couple pictures of some Channel Cats I pulled out of a local canal. I forget what I used for bait those times, but I've used anything from live or cut up baitfish, chicken liver, or bread. All my fish are released. <td></td><td></td><img height="280" src="http://www.carpecarpio.com/TomDChannelcat105.jpg" width="350" alt=""/> <br/><img height="273" src="http://www.carpecarpio.com/TomDChannelcat205.jpg" width="350" alt=""/><td></td>

I guess the fish was 5 lbs? <br/>Fate: Released <br/>Beer: 6 pack of Fat Tire Amber Ale <br/><br/>I was after flatheads, and at first I thought this was one due to the color and the hit on live bait. Turns out, that adult channel cats turn green/yellow and lose their spots in the Verde River. You can see how happy I was to get my first cat!! <td></td><td></td><img height="321" src="http://www.carpecarpio.com/pdanielchannelcat04.jpg" width="375" alt=""/><td></td>
