Man Hooks World Record 124-Pound Catfish Link

It gave him quite a fight, even towing his boat around for a while. He managed to keep it alive, which is good, although it is now in captivity at the local Tackle shop. It came from the Mississippi River, of course. Geez, around here you're lucky to catch a bull head that runs 3 lbs. Previous record was 85 lbs, so he really broke the record big time.

I'm watching Jaws I in a corner of the screen as I write this. I must have seen this one 100 times. So many, I know just about every line. The special effects aren't that great compared to the movies of today, but it's a great period piece, for a nostalgic look back to the 1970s. Richard Dryfuss plays his usual over educated snotty character that he's perfected over the years.

Oooh, their gutting the first catch now. "Didn't eat a car did he?" As he pulls a Louisianna licence plate out of it, lol.

Although this is my favorite movie, I think my favorite shark scene in a movie has got to be in "Deep Blue Sea". Samuel L. Jackson is giving one of his typical Samuel L. Jackson speeches, when up comes the shark, and CHOMP! Bye Bye Samuel L. Jackson. Loved that.

Farewell and adiex you fare spanish ladies,
fairwell and adiex, ye ladies of Spain...

in the linked story to check it out for accuracy, I guess. Sometimes what we read on the net is false, but I think that enough info is given to check that. I'll bet when he had it on the hook and was reeling it in that he himself doubted what he had, but well, a picture is worth a thousand words, eh? I don't know how he held on to it though. Those are some of the slipperyest fish around, catfish, and are able to slip out of the tightest grasps. Many times I've caught their smaller version cousins, only for them to slip back into the dark black waters while removing them from the hook.
