After this month’s winner, we have just about had almost all of America’s favorite game fish as “Catch of the Month” winners. We have had everything from smallmouth and largemouth bass to peackock bass and now catfish.
This months winner is Rocky Akins of Cedar Hill, Missouri. He submitted this nice photo of his and Jake Peterson’s (pictured) catch from earlier this month. The two caught the fish during a small tournament on Mark Twain Lake in Missouri. Their catch consisted of 15 blue cats and 1 flathead cat with the largest rounding out a 30 lbs. In case you are wondering, they didn’t catch them noodling. They caught them with a rod and reel like the rest of us do.
So congratulations to Rocky Akins and Jake Peterson for the submission. For their selection, they will both receive a spool of Vicious Fishing line courtesy of Vicious Fishing and GettingReel.com.
