kdiaz+Followgot jabbed by a catfish spine once… never againHandle enough fish and sooner or later you’ll take a spine. I used to laugh it off—until a small channel cat drove its serrated pectoral spine right into my hand. The pain hit quick, a throbbing burn that wouldn’t let up, and the swelling had me convinced I’d left half that spine in there. Learned fast that catfish spines aren’t just sharp—they’ve got a mild venom that makes it ten times worse. Ever since, I grip them behind the fins like my life depends on it. Anyone else had a catfish spine story gone bad? #Fishing #CatfishTales #fishinginjury #Anglers 6366Share
kdiaz+FollowCatfish survived 8 hours on ice - HOW?! 😱Caught a catfish early morning and threw it on ice in the cooler. Fished for 8 hours, only caught that one fish. Opened the cooler at the end of the day and this thing started thrashing around like crazy! Put it back in the water and it swam off full speed like nothing happened. 8 hours on ice, not even submerged, and it was perfectly fine. How are these things so tough?? #fishing #CatfishTales #CatchAndRelease216Share
