When I was a kid we lived in Mineral Wells from 60-63. my Dad would tell us about the divers who saw catfish big enough to eat a man at PK and refused to go back down. Guess they are still there.

That story has been told about every dam in Texas.

laugh out loud PKfishin, uou really started a thread here. Catfish or no fish, I would never be diving around a dam, even if I did dive, which I don't at least not on purpose.

They should have photoshopped some air bubbles in the photo. Looks like a toy diver and a 6" catfish in an aquarium

I don't think it is altered, it just isn't from PK.

Where? I don't know, but it is one of those photo perspective things sort of the way they used to make King Kong look big in the 1930s version.

Here is a URL pointing to that catfish as far back as 2006 (see the date in the caption).

God, I am glad there are gullible folks; it makes for many chuckles and the world a whole lot more fun!

Good research Brad.

We did have some fun with this though.

I have seen this on FB 30 times in the last two weeks. Each with a different lake.

The first time I saw that picture it took ten minutes to download. I had the newest modem available and downloaded at a blistering 9600 bits/second.

4lb catfish close up looking at the camera and diver further away. Oh ya, that giant man eating catfish has been spotted by the bottom of the dam at Travis, Texoma, Canyon, Grapevine.... :-)

That story has been told about every dam in Texas.

And Tennessee. My dad told me that story when I was a kid. I'm over 70 now and have heard it pretty much all my life.

If you see it first on TFF it must be true.
