Hi there talkbox,
Yikes, about 1 year ago I caught a nice four pound fast water catfish. Ya, I lipped him in the best Jimmy Houston style you ever saw on TV. I had him, no he had me! I had to have a friend pull on that fish to keep him from breaking my thumb and half my hand.
Buddy was laughing so hard, it was hurting bigtime, and still took 3 or 4 minutes to convince it to turn loose. If I hadn't planned to release it, I would have stabbed it to death in a battle to the death to get it off my hand.
What would those cats do to ya? Those muskies look mean. Here in California, we have our Pacific Barricuda but they are a smaller version of the South Pacific and the Atlantic Barracuda.
