Are You A Bad American?

You can talk all day about that 30 and 40lb'er you got here and there but we want to see the proof!! This is our memebers "braggin' rights" section!

Please remember to practice catch and release when fishing big cats! All cats 10lbs. and over should be returned safely to the water to grow, spawn and be caught again! Remember the bigger the cat, the more times per season it can spawn thus keeping a thriving catfish population in your local waters.
