That's one ugly catfish, did you keep it?
No. He lived to see another day. It was sure different looking. Think thats what they call an OP.Quote:

Also known as a flat head I think :scratchhead
Skip told me that those were the best to eat. Caught them, but never ate them.
Flat Head, Apelusus, Spoted Cat, and a french word for big mouth. They only eat live food and are a class above all the rest of the cats. The biggest one I ever caught was around 60 pounds. Lots of time even a small one would keep other species of cats from going in the net thus messing up the catch for that net. Mostly cooked in a sauce I think. It's a fish some folks catch with there hands. Look up noodeling on youtube. Not sure of the spelling on a lot of this post.
They are flatheads, and are really good eating.
we called them spotted cats.......
Call them whatever you like. I will call them "good eating." You beat me fishervet. I caught zero.
It was a tough day...but pretty weather......just remember ALL the other days when you caught more sacs in one day than I have in a YEAR....LOLQuote:
