Double catch night

Got two small cats last night - on the yoyo's on my fishing pier. First one was after I checked bait at 10:30PM - then at 11PM I used light from my upper deck (and the moon) to see a yoyo flashing / moving very wildly - but sad to say - Only a 1lb channel (taken on magic bait)

Then when I woke up and looked out at 4AM - another yoyo was flashing in the full moon - another 1 lb channel.

BTW: this was first catalpa worm catch of the year. Yesterday I FINALLY found a few worms - after checking about 10 trees for past couple weeks. This is a terrible year for catawba worms - usually we have them in May or at least by the first of June - but this year they are a no show. Sure hope they show up 'in force' - cause the 1st catalpa worm season is usually over by July (Some years we have 2 or even 3 crops that last until end of August / first of September.

P.S. hoping my best friend goes on a catawba worm treasure hunt with her family (like they did last year - hint hint )
