I had tried it before and had done OK at it, but since my melt down during a MRI, ( an overwhelming case of claustrophobia) I was not near as good at it as the fellows I went with. I did mange to catch one and did a lot toward a second one. I just had a problem with sticking my arm in a hole underwater. I kept thinking I would get hung-up underwater..

X2......... All I would think about would be grabbing onto something other than a catfish!
Preacher, that's some good lookin fish. I'll bet y'all had a great time landing those fish. I've been there and done that many times on those oxbow lakes off the MS river when I was younger. You sure can put a lot of fish in a boat in one afternoon if you know what your doing. It's kind of scary at first knowing a big cat's in one of them holes or pipes, but eventually anticipation overrides the fear.
I grab all my catfish by hand, one at a time at the all you can eat fish house. nice fish looks like fun.

Haha. I'm sure you get tired of modeling offers. Nice fish!
Nice cat's Robin ! I've seen numerous pics of you this week on the river, riding in the boat, holding up big cat's, but I ain't seen the first fishing pole yet. Enjoy the fish fry ! :icon_thumright:

That's awesome I want to try it some.day.
I'll do that when snapping turtles, alligators and water mocassins are extinct! :toothy12:
Lots of people in KY do it....we call it noodling!! I am not one of those people---I can just imagine a big snapping turtle taking off one of my fingers!! But best of luck to ya!!
Good pics Robin--some real nice uns!!! I did some hand grabbing as a kid with my dad, but not since then.
I'm not claustrophobic, but it gives me the chills thinking about sticking my arm into one of those holes. You're braver than I am!
