Trotline Fishing for BIG FLATHEAD Catfish!!!

[@kennethjackson7574]

I recall my grandfather’s description of an alligator snapping turtle he caught on a trotline- the size of a number 3 washtub! Nice unit of measure.

Very sporting! Wonder what you are bragging about.

[@terrymckenna8901]

Lets see if you can catch them on rod and real its a whole different ball game then

[@shanesouthard1602]

I hope them fish got released

Vegan boy?

[@shanesouthard1602]

@@illreportbackinabit.8514 that’s funny,Some people just like to catch big fish on rod and reel, I would think it would make more sense to eat the smaller ones,but hell I don’t know nothing

[@brianadams429]

@@shanesouthard1602 i do the same. I release the larger (females) they have more eggs to help replenish the fishery, and good genectics. Other thing i noticed is when the fish get too big they get chewy just like gator.

If you keep killing those breeders your trout lines will be useless in the future

We can't use gamefish unless it's caught on a hook and legal size!!!!
