Photo Description: 7.5-pound catfish caught at a little private lake my friends and I use to fish at. I guess I was around 12 years old at the time.

There was an area on the lake where we’d catch shiners on dough balls for bass fishing. To attract the shiners we’d chum for them by digging a coffee can into anthills, then throw the ant-egg laden sand in the water. The shiners would go nuts, we’d catch our share then go bass fishing. Once in awhile this catfish would come out of the grasses bend our hooks, break our lines and I imagine he’d pick off a few shiners during the feeding frenzy. One day we ran out of bread for making dough balls so we put rolled up pieces of paper on our hooks, threw our chum in the water and began fishing. Like usual it didn’t take long for the feeding shiners to show up then out of no-where this big catfish takes the line. Needless to say I/we ran all the way home to show it off, take this picture then fried him up.

I can’t ever remember catching another catfish from there. Being a private lake maybe there weren’t many stocked in it to begin with.
