Amazing and scary picture. If that doesn't stop people from "Noodling", I don't know what will.

DEFINITELY the biggest catfish I've ever seen!! A buddy of mine, back in 76, caught a 50lb flathead at Tuttle Reservoir, when we were in the Army. It was close to four feet long. And the record was over 100lbs. I wonder if they made enough hush puppies for everyone....

Noodling...LOL! I'll bet that would be the last time they tried to pull that honker out of a hole!!

I'll keep an eye out at Dutch!

Dutch Springs use to have several catfish. I have not seen one since the Zebras took up residence. Anybody seem one this year?
