KingKat weigh in

I took a ride to Burlington, Iowa today to watch the weigh in at the Cabelas KingKat catfish tournament. Anglers from Illinois, Arkansas, Missouri and Ohio participated in the tournament with many anglers from eastern Iowa, several of which were from my hometown of Mt. Pleasant. The winning limit of five fish weighed in at over 37 pounds with the biggest fish weighing just over 9.5 pounds. Several teams checked in with just one or two fish and the lightest weight I remember being just 1.42 pounds. I have to admit I was just as interested in the boats as I was the fish. The boats ranged from a basic 16 foot model to a 24 footer with all the bells and whistles.
