My big catch...

cowgirl · Sep 22, 2010

I caught a few fish while camping and caught a bit of hell too. :redface:

I made it through the weekend without catching one stick but I caught this catfish..... which was worse. :doh:

fortunately I caught other fish so I was able to enjoy the fish fry we had on Saturday night..

the fish nuggets...

fries...

making a good bed of hot coals...

heating the oil.. sorry these are so dark!

two pots of fish and one of fries...

the best part..
I didn't have to cook at all, the guys in the group cooked the fish and fries, I was able to sit back with a cold drink and relax. :-D

They were tasty...

Thank you for looking!

Did it give you a hellof a fight?

cowgirl · Sep 22, 2010

lol Guerry, I think that's probably the smallest fish I've ever caught. :doh:

Vet, I was afraid I'd have to eat ribeye.. I wanted fish! :becky:

haha.. Lionhrt, it actually did. I could tell something was on the line but didn't know what it was. lol

I heard about it the rest of the weekend.... :redface:

Awesome lookin nuggets!

Smokey Al Gold · Sep 22, 2010

LOL that's awesome! I like your carolina rig setup on your rod and your hooks for catfish bait. What do you use for bait? You get more from the banks that I get from my jon boat :redface:

Thats too funny talk about smallfry but the catfish looked phenominal

Phesant · Sep 22, 2010

I've caught many a fish this size..... but did you have to use a treble to get him..... I'd say that's over kill :shock:
SWSW & CS&BF (catches small & big fish) that finished plate just makes me drool....

errrrrrrrrrrrr.... thanx now I have to clean another thing.....
Nicely done Jeanie...... Very Nicely Done.....:-D

altongrady · Sep 22, 2010

Jeanie, should have just left him on and gone after a bigger cat! Smallest I've ever seen, especially on a treble hook! Wow, I'm really wanting some fresh fried catfish now. Everything looks great!

lol Al.. I thought about that. He was just sooo cute. I know he couldn't have lived anyway but I threw him back. :becky: Thank you!

Johnny, Thank you, I really enjoyed getting away for a few days.

Old Smoke · Sep 22, 2010

Whoa Jeanie
Did you need the "fighting chair" for that fish?
Great looking fish fry and great choice of beer....

BUT....
What is the propane tank for ??????? :shocked:

Naw! that's not really a gasser is it..... (old eyes mod :becky

chambersuac · Sep 22, 2010

Jeanie,
I don't think you caught that fish - I think it hooked itself because it wanted to go home with you

The rest of your catch looks great...so does the cooked food. Sounds like you had a wonderful time.

You sure know how to enjoy life - and make some us really jealous
