Fishing has been a little slow at our favorite lake since they are dropping the water level by 10 feet to perform dam repairs. I had caught a couple of small bluegills so decided to try for catfish with one.
Ended up catching a #35 flathead that was about 41" long. Took me an hour and 40 minutes to get it in the boat on #15 test line.
Filled 7 guart bags with the meat from this fish. Sure tastes good!
Boy, that's a nice 'un! I do love a catfish! Congrats!

Did you get the cheek fillets? Once they start to get big, there is a nice little fillet of meat on the cheek.

Nothing like catching fish so big they need field dressed and butchered.

Nice fish! How did you rig the bluegill? Fish it on top or bottom? Size of the bluegill?

Good catch! That one will make a nice fish-fry! Make some jalapeno hush puppies, fries and coleslaw to go with it and you have a feast!
Of course your favorite adult beverage would only add to the enjoyment!
