Final Fling on Utah Lake 10-21-20

Whisker-Lickins TD! But too bad no bumpers. Those kitties looked pretty plump were they full of whities?

Didn't keep any for a fillet table CSI investigation.  But the cats from Utah Lake are almost always plump and healthy.  Lots of food resources in that pond...vertebrate and invertebrate.  Right now I suspect that a lot of the YOY whitettes do find their way into the innards of the kitties.  But there are also lots of young of bluegills, crappies, perch, carp and other species.   

Over the years I have filleted a whole buncha cats...and have been demazed at the range of food items I have found inside them.  In addition to the attached pictures, I have caught cats with whole small chickens in them...and once brought in a large kitty at Willard with the complete head and neck of a merganser...a large fish-eating bird.  I've always wondered if the cat was a winner in a do-or-die confrontation.  PS...Viewer discretion advised.
