They say the bigger they are the better they taste around here. I'll take there word on it.

Around here the larger have soft and yellow meat.They fry up a little tough.I prefer to eat the 12 to 18 inch ones but love to catch the big ones.Very strong fish.

I've never seen any of the meat. I release everything. Heck when I'm in canada I very seldom keep one. I cut meat all week and the last thing I wanna do on a day off or on vacation is cut into a critter, thats why I don't hunt any more. Yes they are strong fish My biggest so far last summer was 26 lbs and put up a heck of a fight once it saw the boat I'm lookin forward to catching bigger ones.

Glen, I use 10' ugly sticks with either 4500 shamiano baitrunners or 6500 series abu reels with 30lb. p-line, and oh yea, my muskie net.

 

You done good Chief!!!... usually when somebody tells me they caught a big Catfish aound here and shows me a pic, I ask them if they caught it on a rod and reel... they say no, I caught it on a trotline, jug or limb line. Any knuclehead can catch them that way. :D
