I�m rather new to catfish and was wondering, what�s the best way to kill one? Last night I was fishing at a local river and caught a 15� CC. I kept it in a fish basket till I was ready to leave. I decided to bash it in the head (the way I do most of my fish) and hit it repeatedly with a small metal rod holder until it stopped moving � no gill movements or anything. Then I stuck it in a plastic bag and drove home, about 30 mins. To my surprise when I got it in the house and was ready to fillet it, there it was looking at me and trying to breathe. In frustration I slit its gills and that finished him off. But seriously, there has got to be an easier way to kill a cat than massive blunt force trauma, suffocation and finally stabbing� I felt like a gangster.
