Doug Stange Lives!

Hi Jim: Nice to hear from you. Always difficult as a fisherman to make a perfectly accurate prediction what's happening in the environments we're fishing as far as the fish population is concerned. Need to get the biologist boys involved if possible. I know that's not possible or easilyso many times. Big fish are always vulnerable, though. Anyway, hope you continue to have decent fishing and good fishing to you! I'm busy working on a historic catfish book which we hope to have available sometime next year. doug stange, editor in chief

Yes, my followers,!!! those are the words sent to me by DOUG STANGE!! wow. he's the best. and so humble, and what about that hot tip on the book. sure to be on Oprah's top ten.
Well, we got a nice snow bath yesterday. not as bad as forecast here, but still cold, and i worry about the robins.. there has been no bug hatch so i am concerned that they have nothing to eat. the snow is a bummer as we had 80 degree weather a little ago. Phat tony may go down to Tennessee this weekend, but the cold snap reaches down into ArKansas. yikes. not much new here, goin to the west coast for the first time...excited. and i get to visit the San Fran o the midwest next month. yes...minneapolis, which is near metropolis where superman lives. so. hi on morale, low on fishin.......take it easy.... catfishjim out
p.s. Doug said its "nice to hear from me"
