What does a 5 foot catfish eat?

anything it wants...

I guess a diver with a spear or dynamite is out of the question for capturing it?

I say we send Snoopy in after it. Your mission: jump in and wrestle the monster until he surrenders.

Hey greedy, got anything that compares to that?

Did I tell you I'm allergic to dog-eating 5' catfish?

There are guys in the US who wrestle very large catfish underwater -- in the Missippi or its tributaries if I remember correctly.

I would think an experienced spearfisherman could sort this guy out, but I'm not that guy. The diving would be scary enough to me w/o the fish. I just have a hard time trying to convince myself to breathe underwater and even a snorkel is hard for me to use.

I'll stick to the land dwelling critters!

Only in a place called "Gueldendorf near Frankfurt-an-der-Oder" would a thing like that happen.

Will the real Frankenfish, please stand up?

that's a photochop...see what snoops says about it thomas

Apparently, several people and places claim the fish, but no one has said anything about it being photoshop.

Good point, BKB. I guess it probably is the classic big fish story afterall.

My bad

No, I meant to say that I think you're right, all things considered. The more I look at it and the more I think about it, it's probably photoshop.

Nope, no photoshop there. The way you can tell is if you zoom in on it in photoshop a whole bunch, the pixel sizes would be different if they two pics were merged together. I zoomed and it's all good. Seemless. It's the real deal. Which I am not surprised by. Catfish can get really big!

I would have to say that is a real picture.

Gerrdy, Careful at the switch backs, their is cat fish in there. LOL
