Nothing like the monsters above, but I think that pond is a lot bigger and saltier than mine.
Got this critter on about a 6-inch dead chub this morning.
This was one fat catfish. I haven't cleaned it yet, but from the way my fish pellets have been disappearing lately, I'm assuming that is what it is full of.
Twenty-seven inches and 9-1/2 lbs.
Time to go clean this critter.
I still need to take 2 or 3 of the remaining siblings out of the pond. I can't remember for sure, but I believe these were put in three years ago as 6-8 inchers. It is possible it was four years ago.
