friday the 13th at the alamo
Hit up the alamo river friday night after work . First run came before I could even change out my work clothes(2 minutes) small fish that ate a big bait. Total for the night was four ,not bad for November . Had a lot of runs but this part of the alamo if you let it run to far your hung up. No big ones this time but the little guys were on the chew and it was a lot of fun. That's it for this year can't wait till spring!!!
That size CATFISH are the best eating size IMHO. Thanks for the post.
yup
That they are best tasting cats I've ever had , but I still got yellow tail and halibut in the freezz so I c and r most my cats.
Nice Flatty !!!
The Alamo is a good river for flatheads. Lots of good flats roam that water and its closer too which is pretty cool. We had a few events this past spring with plenty of nice flats coming from that water from the 20's to 40 pounds weighed in. One thing you should note about the Mo is that it is not recommended for eating a lot of those flats due to the pesticides and such in the water. Definitely not eating the bigger ones that been in there for years. The best eating catfish( health wise) in the Imperial Valley canal wise come from the Coachella, All American, or the Highland as far as lack of contaminents. The New River is a no no at all for eating fish from. It is known as the worst contaminated water in the country flowing from Mexico. Good to go on those cats. Hope you can make some of our future cat events in the spring.
: )
p.v. j.p.
I never miss those events just haven't weighed in any flats yet, the channels love me though...
For sure I recognze ya from the pic. Hope the rest of the fellas is doing fine. We will start em up again around April and have 2 in the Imperial Valley and another two in Palo Verde and Blythe area like last season from April thru August. The Halibut trips sounds very interesting I will contact you for one of those I have a 3 week break for Christmas thru a week after new years. : )
uh, oh
I was up dating my photo bucket account and my post pics got erased . My bad, just when I thought I was getting the hang of it.
how to get to the alamo
i need directions to the alomo from coachella.
it's easy hwy 86 to Brawley.Map quest it and you'll see the rivers coming off the All American.Do a couple of recon trips to get familiar with the area so when you come back in the summer you'll be able to use your info gathered from your trips.
