Hey all, just moved to Lakeport, and since I live right on the lake, I figured its time to get back into yak fishing.  I sold my old yak when I moved to the desert, just trying to decide which to buy right now.  Here's my first Clear Lake cat from my dock, not too shabby!

Thanks guys.  That pic is a bit deceiving on just how big that channel is, 36 inches long, 25+ pounds.

Nice fish! Good luck on the yak shopping. Lots of choices nowadays.
Btw a 36" channel catfish is about 14lbs.

Fish weight calculators based on length alone are pretty inaccurate, especially for a fish that has girth, which when compared to my size 12s you can see this fish has.  But bottom line, I didn't get a weight, so my estimate doesn't mean a thing, and we all know a fisherman would never exaggerate.  :smt044

True that... but I was basing my estimate on the hundreds of catfish I've processed at my family's catfish farm; not a calculator. Knowing that's a sz12 shoe, does change my estimate though...she's a girthy SOB for sure!
