23rd August 2008

These Red River Catfish certainly know how to fight and put a bend in your rod. The weather was awful to start the day but it brightened up in the afternoon and we had a superb days fishing on the river.

Well those weren't the only ones we caught but it was the way Gary started his day. At the end of the day we had caught around 18-20 fish and Gary did catch the 2 biggest of the day, a 35" catfish and a 36"


Gary, above, with his 36" catch.


Although they are not related you can see the resemblance.

Which one is the ugliest?
