Big Catfish - Fake Claims
I just posted a picture and note about a big cat that was sent to me in email -
I received it four times in the past two days. It claims a 140 pound cat was caught in Patula Creek on Lake Eufaula - but the cat does not look like any Georgia or US cat I have ever seen. I checked it out - probalby a Wels caught in Europe. This email has been making the rounds, claiming it was caught on a bunch of different US lakes. http://fishing.about.com/od/catfish/a/aa081804a.htm Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

I've had that (very same) photo for over 6 years Ronnie,, it is from Spain, I had all the particulars on it somewhere, I would have to look it up -- Rodney Long, Inventor of the Long Shot "WIGGLE" rig, SpecTastic Thread Boomerang Fishing Pro. ,Stand Out Hooks ,Stand Out Lures, Mojo's Rock Hopper & Rig Saver weights, Decoy Activator and the EZKnot http://www.ezknot.com |

That's a Wels Cat, Ronnie. I have seen that same picture in a couple of
books that I have on Sportfishing in Europe. "RGarri7470" wrote in message ...
