A friend just returned from his annual trip across the border and to a week on the Red River. Usually the main target is catfish with sturgeon if the kitties aren't playing nice.
Apparently this year they were. Frogs (caught by the river) were the bait and they caught over 70 channel cats that week with over 50 of them running to over 20 lbs. All Catch and Release up there unless you are a member of a local indian tribe so the population stays healthy and ready to play.
I'm booked up this year with UK anglers visiting to the point that I will be out of vacation time but next year I think I'm headed north to MN and another Red River trip with Jerry - pictured holding one of his week's catch.
