What are your stories of the one that got away?
This summer I fished an overnighter at a place that had catfish in, I was woken at 2am to the alarm going, but as I was about to pick up the rod the alarm fell silent.
I picked up the rod anyway and hooked into something that felt very heavy and hugged the bottom, the fish at first did little than stay low with me gaining line , then it swam off up the swim before shedding the hook.
I'm sure it was a catfish
