This was a pretty interesting story from The Sunday Wichita Kansas Eagle Newspaper a couple of weeks ago.
A resident in the area saw a ball bouncing around kind of strange in a nearby pond and went to investigate. It turned out to be a flathead catfish that had obviously tried to swallow a child's basketball, which then became stuck in its mouth!!
The fish was totally exhausted from trying to dive, but unable to because the ball would always bring him back up to the surface. The resident tried numerous times to get the ball out, but was unsuccessful. He finally had his wife cut the ball in order to deflate it and release the hungry catfish.
Damnit!!! I seen that pic a while back, I thought it was a new lure , took all the kids basket balls,and tied em on some good 50 lb test and been castin for three days now...not even a bite!!! Maybe try some inflatable stuff wehn my arm gets better,lol Charlie
Seriously!!! Catfish are good eatin' and that stupid bastard let that monster go?! I do believe you can get your ass kicked for that kind of behavior. :laughing:

Depends on what type of water they're caught in. Running water, with rock / pebble bottom is great. Still water, with muddy bottom tastes like sh*t IMO.
But okay, let's say you've caught yourself a "muddy water" Catfish. Wanna know the best way to cook it?
Stick the fish, whole, in a big pot of boiling water. Throw a 6-inch nail into the pot. Allow the pot to boil dry. Throw away the fish and eat the nail.
THAT's how tasty a "muddy water" catfish is! :barf:
actually, soaking a muddy water catfish fillet in cream/half&half for 24 hours does wonders for the muddyness. its still not as good as farm raised or running watered but its makes it taste TONS better.
You beat me to this response, cookee.... you're not half bad! :laughing:
