Not a Catfish but like they said Paddlefish or some call Spoonbill. Not best eating but no bones. They are filter feeders , thanks for the post. Only way I ever caught any was snagging or nets.:highfive
It was a foul hook. Hooked it in the bill. Thought I had a huge gar.
I've eaten them before, but that was a pretty big fish. I took a couple of quick pics and let her go. I don't know what the growth rate of those fish is , but I'm sure it took a few years to get that big. Maybe she will live a few more years
Many times the Spoonbill will live to grow over 100 lbs!
Nice job Kent.
Ummmm one of the best eating fish that swims in ARkansas in my opinion....Fry it up. Congrat's
prehistoric looking creatures!!! foul hooked one years ago myself on Mellwood old river , dont think id want to eat one though!!!!
People have paid thousands to get a chance at a sword fish. Are you going to put it on the wall?
RCC, I'm a sport fisherman. I release my fish ! :Rofl
