Welcome to FxR, and we can only hope this nice weather holds out. Not a fan of the ice like some are, no offense.

Welcome to the site and nice catch but it looks like a channel cat to me. Very few lakes in Colorado have blue cats and even less so of that once so quality

Nice catch - you have no idea how many times I've been there trying to catch that critter.... but no luck.

I see that you bagged him.... :) Congrats. What did you catch him on?

25 pounds would of been a state record for a blue.
