i caught some "eaters" 25# 38# 43#

if you catch fish that don't fit in your box ... get a bigger box ... they all box fish

liberalism is a mental disorder

Here are the Lewisville records for catfish:

Catfish, Blue 63.12 48.25 Jan 22, 2000 Shannon Maynes cut carp
Catfish, Channel 22.68 35.50 Mar 10, 2002 Scott Strohe crankbait
Catfish, Flathead 98.00 54.00 Jun 2, 1986 William Stephens

That fish is not even a flathead record.

I will have to agree with the rest of the catfishermen here. Flathead for sure. Catfish just don't get that big.

Because the tv station is staffed by a bunch of Yankee liberals who have never been hunting or fishing in their lives. If someone ran in there and told them the sewers were running with champagne they would all grab straws and start running.

No offense to liberals. };o)

I talked to a writer today with The Colony Courier. He will have a story coming out soon about the catch. It is a flat head without a doubt.
