I now officially love both catching and eating #gafttopcatfish They fight like a champ and blacken up nice and delicious. #fish #fishing #fishnerd #cajunfishing #bobberdown #catfish #catfishing #sailfingafftop #sailcat #sailcatfish #hhlures #stcroixrod… instagr.am/p/Cemz1hZLbW9/

Little man CRUSHED IT today on his first assisted #catfish landing! Got out there to take advantage of LDWF's #getoutandfish stocking program and gott him a big kitty. #fish #fishing #fishnerd #cajunfishing #catfishing #channelcatfish #ldwf #ldwfgetouta… instagr.am/p/CexLUn2rkeH/

It's been a good long while with all the moving, new job, and rediscovering cajun species. However, I was able to get on some nice #carp after our #toledobend Women's Workshop trip. Really enjoyed my time setting up the old fishing tent, baiting up, and … instagr.am/p/CfIMIwhLQo2/

Got to take the #pirogue out on its maiden voyage today and add another piece to the tapestry of #cajunfishing since we moved back. Found several holes with some fun little cats. #fish #fishing #fishnerd #catfish #catfishing #yellowbullhead #channelcatf… instagr.am/p/Cfng12JOgpZ/

From a trip to #toledobend a while back. Was hoping to land my first #shortnosegar to no avail, but got this stout #spottedgar instead #fish #fishing #fishnerd #cajunfishing #gar #garfishing #nightfishing #pennfishing #maximafishingline #stcroixrods #r… instagr.am/p/CgV0A8ru8KS/

You definitely become the center of attention when you help someone take THIS off a hook. The #chopiquekidsfishingrodeo was definitely hoping after that. #fish #fishing #fishnerd #gator #alligator #getoutandfish #ldwf @ldwfgetoutandfish #cajunfishing #d… instagr.am/p/ChyRaRxLsIn/

Struck out on our #gar session but we were able to at least grab this #warmouth from the lillies. #fish #fishing #fishnerd #sunfish #lepomis #lepomids #cajunfishing #bobberdown #cajuntradition #cajunintraining #canepolefishing #downdabayou #bayoufishing… instagr.am/p/ChyR39SrRg_/

Although not my first and not my biggest #aligatorgar this was my first one since moving back after several sessions falling short. Took to the air, fought it out of tangling in the vegetation, and a perfect circle hook corner of the mouth for easy relea… instagr.am/p/Cj4D0OtrYlt/

While fishing for live bait I got into some awesome sunfish including, I think, two #hybridsunfish Given the species there, I think one may be a #bluegill x #redspottedsunfish and the other may be a #longearsunfish hybrid. Too cool to put on the hook. … instagr.am/p/Cj4EhY4LrWI/

A nice biggie from the delta during a quick Davis trip for a good friend's wedding. Had to get on the water at least for a bit while I was there #fish #fishing #fishnerd #pumpjunkies #deltafishing #sacramentosanjuaquindelta #bass #largemouthbass #pennfi… instagr.am/p/Ckjin64rqQU/

Been a huge jump on attention span and enthusiasm for catching fish once we went form 2 to 3 years old. He couldn't get enough of some #canepole action to catch us some bait. #fish #fishing #fishnerd #sunfish #lepomis #lepomids #breambuster #maximafishi… instagr.am/p/Ck7M6H1r64t/

Caught a gorgeous sunset on the #mississippiriver and caught what I think is my new PB #bluecatfish on rod and reel. Didn't have the scale on me, but felt like a solid 30 pounds plus! #fish #fishing #fishnerd #cajunfishing #catfish #catfishing #bluecat … instagr.am/p/ClXU5Qsr-cu/

Little man and I perfected our equipment setup for using our #cygnet fishing barrow for moving him and all our #catfish equipment to and from the river. #fish #fishing #fishnerd #catfishing #perchfishing #uglystick #maximafishingline #fathersonfishing instagr.am/p/ClwVQ0FOlqu/
