Luke's guest this week is Lake Tawakoni guide Tony Pennebaker (903-474-3078). Luke and Tony discuss a trip earlier in the week for blue catfish that produced some jumbo size fish up to forty pounds. Many people think the bigger blues bite only during the cold weather months but that's not the case. Listen to Luke's weekly podcast "Catfish Radio with Luke Clayton and Friends" just about everywhere podcast are found.
