deep quarry lake 6/25

hit up deep quarry with my dad from like 9 i think to 1130. were walking up to the spot and you can see some catfish right off the ledge in about 8 feet of water. i dropped my perch rig down there and the cat i was fshin kinda spooked and swam off. came back and while im fishin a wacky worm he inhales my minnow so i drop the rod and set the hook. after about a two minutes fight on an ulrtalight with 4 lb test i landed the 24" 7 lb channel. it was a very fun fight and we took him home for dinner. ive never had catfish before so we just had to. about a half hour later though i look down and see another nice one that somehow messed himself up in some old line. my dad dropped a jig in there and got it stuck on the line. after a few quick snaps with the rod the cat was free. at least we saved one life with the one we took. hopefully pics soon.
