It's a Kershaw!!!

I went out to catch some feeder fish tonight with my buddy mrgeese. I hooked this guy but handed the rod to him to untangle another rod. That will teach me!

Measured 38" long, weighed 25 pounds. Had a HUGE gut on him. Darn thing evidently thought that bluegill head looked like fish food from the feeder.

Silly kitty!

Another pic with him on the scale:

The release (at least he let me help somehow

):

Caught several others between 22 and 28". Fun night and a relaxing way to end the day! Thanks for going out with me buddy!

At 38 inches, I believe that would be the biggest channel cat any Forum member has reported this year from TR3. Congratulations.

Good one Aquaman! Of course we are talking about catfish and you're probably talking about 2 bluegill that size
