Caught this Bluecatfish on a Shimano CT700 reel with BPS 30# test line and a St Croix musky rod. The fish hit in 55' deep water on a 2' piece of cut skipjack (freshwater herring). I used an 8/0 gamakatsu circle hook. The fish weighed 62 pounds and was 50" long and had a girth of 33".
This is a very big fish for these parts of the USA, not big by the standards I see you catch over there. |
Un cousin d'amérique de notre silure glane.
Selon le pêcheur ce poisson a été relâché après les photos. |
