Had a great time too!  We got over 35 fish.  Biggest was 8+. But, Ben (92XJ) gets credit for the Onion rings!  Plus, most of the catfish we were eating were one's he caught that first evening and Saturday morning. 

Wish I was still there now!

Rasbo,
I'll trade you the onion ring recipe for your hot sauce recipe. 

I should apologize for stealing your jar of hot sauce you put out for us for the burritos.  I put the jar in the cooler to keep it cool and once I got home realized I still had it.  I thought about bringing it back to you, but decided to keep it and put it on every meal till it was empty.  Ridiculous stuff.

I'm glad I could supply and keep all you jack wagons fed. One day I'll teach you guys how to catch fish. 
I want to say my biggest was 7.75, I think.  It was big enough for the day to win the prize.  Thanks again Mrs. Denali!
