Gratz, a professional angler fishing on a Dutch lake with his twin brother Oliver, has caught many catfish in his life, but none of them "like this"?

a bright yellow catfish jumped out of the water and into Martin Gratz’s boat

Sure. And it was THIS BIG!

If he’s so bright, how come he got caught?

Does it have red eyes? I’ve seen these types of mutations in birds.

That’s a whole lotta catfish nuggets. I bet a good public aquarium would pay big bucks for it. Too bad he put it back, unless didn’t have a livewell.

Yeah, try boating that one with a Zebco Walmart Special with 12 pound test mono line on it. I’d like to watch that just to see the inevitable faceplant when the line snaps like a gunshot six feet from the boat. LOL

I had a line snap one time, 30 lb test IIRC, and it sounded like a rifle going off...... Have no idea what was on it..................
