We have a new Lake Record Catfish! The top spot now belongs to Elliot Berquist of Escondido and his 62.70# Blue Catfish caught in Willow Cove on mackerel yesterday afternoon. Berquist is an avid catfish angler here at the lake and he and his fishing buddies have been pursuing the record for a few years and with an increased fervor in the last few weeks. Their efforts resulting in several sizeable catches culminating in yesterday’s record fish. Berquists catch begs the question; Just how big might the largest catfish in the lake be? Both Lower Otay and San Vicente have record catfish in the triple digits, but both of those lakes are considerably bigger. The last few years have shown that Wohlford has a healthy population of blues that continue to grow in size. Could Wohlford’s murky waters be concealing an 100# catfish? Only time will tell, but two things are certain, it seems a good deal more plausible than it did last week, and Berquist and his crew of catfish hunters stand a better than average chance of being the ones to do it.
