WOW! ON A CRANKBAIT. THAT MUST BE A JOB HOLDING THAT FOR A PHOTO. LOOKING TO CATCH MONSTER CATFISH THIS YEAR.

Excellent fish! I am still yet to take my first flattie. The nearby Susquehanna River is routinely yielding 20 to 35 pounders and is a 'Back East' destination water for them. I really should go...

Caught it on a crankbait in 8 feet of water.  This fish took approximately 15 minutes to land.  I probably could have cranked it in quicker on that superline, but I was enjoying it too much.

Yikes! Did you catch that on purpose?

Comment by Patricia Ramirez on June 23, 2012 at 4:57am

Congrats, how long does it take to landed.

Monster! Forget about eating the fish, I'd be worried about that fish eating me.
