Setting in the ''library'' one day reading an In-Fisherman article on snagging Paddlefish. It stated that they could not be caught with conventional tackle. They were fishing I believe the Missouri in Montana. That article was I'm guessing 5 yrs. ago. Anyway me and a buddy went on a walter trip to Miss. and I proceded to catch not one but three Paddlefish on a purple and silver thunder stick, which the fish absolutly nailed. The only other time I've caught one I was using a 1/4 oz. rattle trap and the lure went through it's gill plate as it was shoveling thru some plankton??? Blah Blah Blah   Man I wish I had some ice.  I do have a pic w/ fish and lure somewhere

If I were a guessing man I would say A- Bomb fishes roush more than the other two , Jigmup fishes Salamonie and that leaves Mississinewa for me. Am I close ?

Ha....You would have been very astute in your assumption some 10 years ago and before Shaw. I beat that thing up like nobody's business. Many large fish have come from there but that was back in the day of film so my archives are just for reminiscing. I use to make that trek (1 hr and 15 min) 4 times a week after work. Now, I havent' slowed down too much but I hit some flowages that are closer to me and really produce. But cutting my teeth on the mighty Salamonie, LMAO, was fun and I still get down there a few times a year.

Man, I gotta quit being lazy and use my scanner.....My future grandkids are gonna think I'm lame when I whip out the shoebox full of prints!
