 ;D

Noticed a pretty good cat around the peir at rock quarry landing this evening. It would've probably gone about that size. Didn't even have a pole in the boat.

JackJ  you know you can be to honest , just say a 6 lber. would get us all excited, but no you have to throw in the word catfish, and spoil the excitment for bass fisherman.

Did you keep him and cook him for supper.
I hope you did I like catfish but not no other fish., oh maybe crappie.

I pulled it into the boat and it crapped everywhere!  Ended up getting salmonella from it and was sick as a dog!!!   I will never pull another into the boat.

man thats not good. I caught a 12lb catfish on a crappie rig last year when i was bankfishing. The last 15-20 ft before the bank was extremely shallow and he was dragging his belly in the sand and then the crappie rig snapped. So i went in after it right away cuz it was stuck in the sand, but my friend actually beat me to it so i did get him. Man that was fun. One time a friend snapped off what he had hoped was a nice walleye in the river fishing from the bank. It was snagged on a rock so he decided to wade/swim out to it. He found his line and was like hey i found the line and then the fish started wrapping around him and rubbed up against his leg and scared the trash fish out of him cuz he thought it was a snake... ended up being a catfish. i still laugh about it all the time. man if i only had a camera lol

Was fishing with a friend in his Triton last year and he caught a really good sized cat.  I held it at the gunwales while he fought to remove the hook.  All he kept saying was "do not let it get on the carpet and slime my boat".  I don't care much for catching cats either.

Sorry to hear about the salmonella part, Jack!  I have not yet caught a catfish so I think it was still a good catch. 8)
