"David Anderson went fishing late last Saturday, according to a post on the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency’s Facebook page. According to the post, he didn’t have work the following day and likes to go fishing after boating activity calms down. He asked several friends to come with him, but they all declined.

So, none of them were there when Anderson reeled in a 103-pound blue catfish."  :yike:

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

we ate them in Alabama. Deep fried nuggets. Very strong taste if you try to do large strips.

Soul food places and sometimes a non-franchise chicken joint will also do fried catfish and hushpuppies.  I had one on tge wet side, but they closed after a time, which was a shame.

Sorry for the slow response.  Any blue cat over 15 pounds we just did CPR (Catch, Photograph and Release!  :)
