0 squirtgun 122 Report post Posted August 22, 2008 That's a true fisherman to land a big cat with a Barbie fishing pole.I think the only thing he can do to top that is break his own record with a Ronco pocket fisherman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Steve Kiser 14 Report post Posted August 22, 2008 Nice catch, but I am surprised that the state record was onlyl 18 lbs, heck it is now 21 lbs., I think the state record here is like 102 lbs. for a catfish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's probably for a blue cat. Channel cats don't get nearly as big as blues or flatheads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have never fished in TVA owned water you might be surprised just how big the fish are.I have seen bass with double gills in a couple of TVA lakes.
