Hey Lava, know you didn't ask me, but on that eating question thought I'd pipe in. Tried a nice fat pretty one last week. Filleted up very nice and I didn't have time to fry it up so I smoked it. Bad mistake, it was very fishy and not in a good way. Don't know why but it wasn't my favorite for sure. Think I'll go back to releasing all of them. Or fry them for fish tacos. I'm not a huge catfish fan to start with, but I tried one last summer per TD's directions and really liked it so I was excited to eat this one, but it didn't smoke up as well as I had hoped. Just my take, fish was a 22" female. Later J
