Unless she is going to eat it, she should put it back

I love fried catfish but somehow I think that one may be little tough or funky tasting.

"The catch is a testament to conservation, regulations and stocking that have maintained the species, Turbanic said, as well as a catch-photograph-and-release approach to fishing largely embraced on the lakes.

The Haneys intended to return the fish to the water after it was weighed, but it didn't make it."

I hope that they then took it home and had lots of friends over for dinner.

6:57 PM thank you, I admit not reading the article.
Stupid and senseless to kill something that has lived that long just to take a picture. People are selfish jerks

That fish has reproduced well over a million times, and, like me at my age, might even be unable to do it any longer, so stop with the bashing.

Cheese, it's good food and probably used for that purpose, 7:49.

So, just eat me!

7:49 well in that case I guess we could kill you, based on your analogy that you no longer have a useful purpose. That is what you said, right?

I mean lets not let it live because it has a right to, lets just kill it because YOU THINK it is old and doesn't serve a purpose.

You fall in the selfish jerk category. Thank you for validating my point.

this catch isn't that big a deal, I scooped 113 catfish weighing about a pound each floating in the Wicomico river just yesterday. after I fried em up and loaded em with lots of salt and old bay they weren't bad
