Local Winnipegger, Matthew Senkow, reeled this small channel cat in on a pickerel rig within five minutes of tossing his line into the Red River at St. John's Park on Monday, June 3, 2013. With temperatures pushing the mercury up to 20 degrees Celsius, it seems the bigger cats just weren't biting. (JESSICA BURTNICK/WINNIPEG FREE PRESS)
