Catfish eats dog
From correspondents in Berlin
August 29, 2004
A GIANT catfish is suspected of having eaten a dog in a German lake near the Polish border.
The estimated 1.5m catfish has been making waves in the small lake near Gueldendorf for several years, according to the Berliner Kurier newspaper.
Catfish are scavengers that feed on plants and animals on the beds of lakes and rivers. They can, on rare occasions, grow up to 4.5m and weigh as much as 300kg.
But the giant fish has developed other tastes and is emptying the lake of all the other fish. Now a small dachshund is believed to have been pulled underwater and eaten, the report said.
Attempts to net the catfish have failed.

I once caught a 450 lb cat fish. Catching the cat fish wasn't as hard as putting the 100 lb cricket on the hook.

Difference between a catfish and a lawyer is: One is a bottom feeding scumsucker, the other is a fish.

A GIANT catfish is suspected of having eaten a dog in a German lake near the Polish border.I sure hope the EU diplomats find a way to sort this one out.
European wars have been sparked by far more trivial incidents.
