It seems like if you fish for the Big ones you can get them! The biggest I've caught were always at night. One time I caught 2 monsters on turtle lines. Haven't fished for cats (purposely) in a few years up Pymy. Still if you can find em between 15-20 inches, you'd get some nice fillets!

use half worm shoudn't have any trouble catching catfish the bigger ones bite better late in the day
in my opinion pymie isn't over populated w/ cats yet but i feel strongly that in few years it just may i fished that lake for the past 20 yrs just like the perch pop grew the cats will to

Lake Arthur is ridiculous for cats. It was hard to sit down last week or light up a square

Hit Pymy yesterday and between two of us must have caught 15 before moving away from those worm gulpers.
Biggest maybe 17". Caught a real variaty , perch,crappie,wallies,cats,gills. All total...50+

square? LoL Nice haul Mika

can someone please tell me how the heck to catch an eye this time of year?? I fished for 4 days last week and caught everything in that darn lake except an eye! Probably about 50 cats or so in that 4 day stretch too. I caught cats on jigs, trolling bouncers, and even on a reef runner! Lots of big gills deep too.. but NO eyes

i dont fish eyes at pymie this time of year because of work
but they tell me they can be caught in deeper water on south end at nite or early morn trolling lead core so i been told

keep trying? lol ive seen some caught from shore at espyville. i had a nice one hit right on the rocks in front of me.  suprised the heck out of me

wade if you would have fished for as long(countless tactics too) as we did you wouldnt have wanted to keep trying either lol

hehe ... you might be suprised how those cats taste baked up :) might forget you ever wanted to catch walleye

ino how it is tho if it aint a walleye its a disapointment lol  i get kinda sad when i see a 5 pound bass or something anymore i gotta remember that its still a decent fish
