Nice job Ron, I'll bet you had a blast despite the mishaps!!

Yea.. Catfish (they looked like Channel Cats) are a ball to catch!! We fish for them here at home on the Susquehanna and the average size is 4-7 lbs. but I've caught a number of 8-10 pounders as well. There are bigger ones... I just don't fish them often enough to have caught anything bigger. I do know several individuals that have caught them in the 14-16 lb. range. That said, it doesn't matter where they're caught, they're hard fighters and always fun to catch. I don't eat them but I know folks that do so once in a while I'll save a smaller one for somebody.
