i was WAY up the yadkin river -near hwy 601- was working a wash out hole with a good brush pile right on the drop.was using a 3/4oz fat free -it's on a diet

-shad. i caught a feisty foot ball shaped bass out of there... couple cast later i hang a decent fish 6 feet down other side of the brush pile.

after a brief tug of war in the brush pile he came at the boat hit the currant and peeled drag big time. 5 mintues later fighting the currant up comes a slimey channel cat.. who fought like he was twice his size which was 6 pounds..
it was so humid the digital camera would not work.i had to go home and set the camera in the a/c just to get it to work..
