Bagging up in France

feeds@yuku.com (Midmore) — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 15:39:55 GMT

After the last couple of years of trying different locations, methods and tactics etc, I am now getting more and more confident of a Cat from the river on most weekend long trips. My last trip 2 weeks ago, saw me bank 5 Cats in 3 nights, plus find out a new method that I am going to try in a couple of weeks that might bag me a few more !!!
Frances rivers are getting better by the year.

French Camping / Fishing Venue

feeds@yuku.com (Mark Hunt) — Thu, 14 May 2009 08:30:49 GMT

Hi All,

Haven't posted for awhile because work is severely limiting my catting activities time-wise, but I follow the forum regularly and I wish you all the best for this season. I'm off to France in July in my camper and wondered if anyone has had experience of a good Cat venue (not after records, just fun) with camping facilities ?

Any advice would be appreicated.

regards

Catfish sizing from length

feeds@yuku.com (Clarkey1972) — Sat, 09 May 2009 12:27:59 GMT

Hi there

Ive just come back from a week on the Saone. I caught my new PB while over there with a fish well over 100lb. We estimated it to be 130lb. The length of it was 299cm and the girth 115cm and wondered if anyone knew how to get a fairly accurate estimate on size.

Our weigh sling handles broke under the load so couldnt weight it properly.

Looking at Simon's book it has an average length / weight chart which would pitch it around the 150/160lb...

I am going to plan a trip to the River Ebro. I would like to hear from anyone on the forum who has been and could maybe recommend a company to book with and also any...

Saone / Doubs polluted - FISHING BANNED?

feeds@yuku.com (Clarkey1972) — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 21:16:34 GMT

Has anyone heard about the Saone and Doubs in France.

I am hearing that fishing is banned or is about to be banned at the moment due to pollution by PCBs.

Can anyone confirm this at all?

The cats made me change my boat!!!

feeds@yuku.com (Paul Monaghan) — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 17:24:12 GMT

I am not writing this because I am C rap at clonking as Simon or Richard will tell you. But I feel there is a detail missing.
Yes clonking works but I also feel that some repetitive vibration that travels through water will work just as well.
My reason for the statement above is. I had to change the alloy rowing boat that we used on the Kingfisher Lake to a plastic boat, the reason the cats kept on attacking the alloy one....
