Monday was a nice
day to be on the water, especially later in the day. While conditions
were inviting, not many anglers were taking advantage of them. Later
this week does not look good for fishing based on current forecasts, at
least for anglers looking for comfort while wetting a line.
With no fishing reports to pass on, this allows for discussing a couple questions readers have had lately. While I have been responded to these questions before, they bear repeating.

George Morgan
asked about using non-ethanol gas in his new 150 horsepower, four stroke
engine. He said that the fuel recommendation in the manual was for
gasoline with up to 10 percent ethanol while friends had recommended
non-ethanol gasoline.
I replied he should check with
the dealer where he purchased the engine. Although he did not mention
the manufacturer, I do not know of any outboard engine that would be
harmed by using non-ethanol gasoline. In fact, I tend to agree with his
friends who recommended the gas.
Unfortunately this type of gasoline is not widely available. I used it in my new 15 horsepower Yamaha at the lake and purchased the gas from a station outside of Lake Jackson.

Often in the Reel Report I mention Sarah Melcer‘s
famous recipe for preparing gafftop catfish and readers frequently ask
for her recipe. Below is Sarah’s recipe and, if you try it, chances are
you will seldom toss back a good-sized gafftop catfish.
“My gafftop recipe is simply pan-seared, lightly floured, gafftop filets in a little olive oil,” Melcer stated.
“Add in some capers, mango, tomatoes, purple onions, cilantro and diced jalapeños. It doesn’t take long and it’s done.”
Enough said and highly recommended.
