an afternoon/evening spent cat-fishing is hard to beat..there is a bass masters store about 12 miles from here

...I hope to be working about 1/2 mile from the store..damn place must be on 50 friggin acres..the parking lot is 5 times that. caught alot of carp also..scored proper and smoked they are great...am going to try my hand at the bass here in tenn. The folks i have talked to say they are HUGE...I do miss all the farm ponds in Iowa though..carp...cat..bass..perch...crappie...even good ole snapping turtles[great to eat also] you never knew what you might catch..
