Well the King of the Cats 2010 has just been completed this morning at 7am, and we would just like to thank you all for competing! We had a field of 40 Catfish contestants that were gunning for this years King/Queen of the Cats 2010, which started at 10pm. The contestants came and were all competing for first place, and all had their "MO-Jo" baits and secret bait mixes ready to unleash. After 2-7hours, contestants began to catch there prized cats. The Top 10 Cats varied from 5.6lbs to the winning weight of 17.0 (mostly blues but channels as well, infact the 2nd place fish was a solid 14lb Channel caught by Ted Gervais of Vista, CA). Alot of the contestants who placed successfully, also C&R'd their catches
As the time came into weigh in, our first pair of contestants began to show. There were alot of sized Cats being brought up to the scales to officials Jimmy and Hubert, whom were ready to officially take weights and photos of the successful contestants. (The top 5 places were within 5lbs of eachother)!
But as with all contests there can only be ONE winner...and that winner was Elaine Dickerhoof of Artesia.
Congratulations on showing whos King...or should we say Queen of the Cats 2010!
