Well fellas at Lake Irvine last week they handed out flyers announcing that this weekend 22nd-24th would be the last of the Catfish plants for them before they start Trout season. So to wrap it up they are having a Catfish tournament/derby all weekend, I am sorry but I missplaced the flyer with all the specifics but if I recall there will be prizes and money given to the 1st-3rd largets Cats caught. For more info and specifics I would give em a call at
(714) 649-9113.

And just a bit of a heads up while I was there last Saturday only a couple Cats were caught during the day, most of the catching is at night. And the water on the lake has receded greatly "I kayaked around the whole lake and didn't break a sweat" and a large portion of the lake to the far right past the dock does not allow boats as it is only about a 1ft deep. And it still seems Macs, livers, and shrimp is the weapon of choice... and a few still swear by Catmando.

Good luck to whoever heads out there!
