Hopefully it’s an EXTREMELY distant relative :-)
Like they say: Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while!
Good for her.
We pulled in some halibut south of Prince William sound. Captain said they were 45-50 pounders. I was feeling like a pro. We got back to Seward to have them filleted and shipped. I noticed a picture on the post of a guy with a 110 pounder. Oh well!
Good eating for a few weeks.

hehe! Hopefully this will be an activity that she and her husband can enjoy together from now on :-)
Back in SE Virginia...somebody over in Surry County caught about a 45-48 pound catfish...I wondered “what in the world!” Well, the Surry Nuclear Power Plant is over in that county...and when I learned where the fella caught the fish, I wondered if it having swam and grown around the waters just off a nuclear power plant had anything to do with its size.
You'll have to fix your own supper.
Gone fishing!

A 712 lb catfish was pulled out of reelfoot lake. The fisherman said catching the fish was easy, the hard part was putting the 100lb cricket on the line. LOL

First time’s the charm. She should quit while she’s ahead, because it will be a Loooong time before she tops that.
YUMMY!! :-)
did you use the okla method on that one?
Grizzly Bear-Size Catfish Caught in Thailand
Nearly nine feet long (2.7 meters) and as big as a grizzly bear, a huge catfish caught in northern Thailand may be the largest freshwater fish ever recorded
Caught last month (May 1) in the Mekong River, a team of fishermen struggled for more than an hour to haul the creature in. It tipped the scales at 646 pounds (293 kilograms).
Despite efforts to keep the Mekong giant catfish alive, it died and was later eaten by villagers.

I don't know about this sort of thing so I'm just guessing, but would there be a chance that such a huge catfish as a 110 pounder while impressive in size might not be quite so good to eat because it would be considerably older than your 50 pounders?
Perhaps you ended up getting the better dinner?
That catfish looks eel like.
Nah, trott line.
