It felt like Bud Light

[Glaucus]

I never fish for catfish, so my boss invited me to go fishing for catfish with him yesterday. It was a great time. But. And but... I saw a bunch of smallies smashing the top, and it grieved my soul. I felt like I was drinking Bud Light when I could have been drinking Bell's Two Hearted Ale. All fine and well, of course, but a man has preferences...

 

Tis the season for us in the North!

Choose friends wisely

Haha . A friend of mine  had to take some guys from work crappie fishing  . I got on the bass fast that day and had a limit of fifteen inchers in an hour . I knew where they were fishing , so pulled up and released the limit in front of them . I loved every second of it .

Thing is, I almost brought some bass gear, but I didn't want to be rude, since he was the host and enjoys the cats.

Would've been happy to just have had a Whopper Plopper with me, to take a few shots.

Your buddy should have let the air out of your trailer tires ...

I dearly LOVE bass fishing...and I LOVE fishing for everything else to.  I believe that time on the water fishing for other species helps me get a refocus on bass.  Kind of like when I go golfing with the wife....I truely enjoy this experience and exercise...but when I get in the boat the next time it's a "phew"....gosh I love this boat and time on the water.

Gosh, I feel sorry for ya, mate. That musta been nearly

unbearable. And your analogy is good, though I've never

had a Bell's. I'd probably opt for some Dragon's Milk or 

Yeti....  Although (ducks for cover) I actually enjoy

Bud Light Platinum.

This reminds me of folks who long for Baccardi, when there is only Capt Morgan, Don't try Pasador de Oro, or you'll never enjoy fresh water fishing, I mean drinking cheap rum, again...

I don't always fish for cats. But when I do, I'd rather be fishing for bass.

I'll take a smallie over a catfish, just like I'll take a Bell's over a dilly dilly anytime!!

ok so i drink Buds, never had a bells 2 hearted ale.

You could have told your boss you had a great catfish bait and thrown a Ned rig. I have caught Cats and Smallies on it, More Smallies though.

 

To use your analogy, you would still be drinking Bud light but it would have had a shot of Jim Beam dropped into it.
