Thought we were there for bass. (Add to Favorites) Posted Tuesday, September 6th, 2005 to Fishing Stories 4&1/2 pound catfish.
Me and my brother went out to the reservoir to catch some bass and bass we did catch, some big and some small. The thing is that my brother was using a rattle trap lure which you know as well as I do is a bass lure. Anyhow When we were just about done for the day my brother hooked in to what he thought was a big bass and when he surfaced it, it was a 4&1/2 pound catfish. Took us both by surprise but none the less he caught the biggest fish of the day.
