Three children in Houston, Texas, reeled in a giant blue catfish (pictured, left) while fishing in a bayou, according to Local 6 News.
 
The Spring Brach Middle School students said it took about 30 minutes to bring the 65-pound fish to shore at the bayou located at Shasta and Memorial.
 
The giant fish may be the largest ever caught in the area.
 
Local 6 News showed video of the boys unsuccessfully attempting to put the large fish in their cooler.

I bet that ol' boy was around to catch the last Clifton Chenier concert.

It'd keep Dr. John supplied in blackened catfish for a year.

Doggone, right where I grew up but back then it was WAY out in the country. All we ever caught were mud bugs.

I cought a 455 lb cat fish. Catching the cat fish was easier than putting the 100lb cricket on the hook.

Yummy Yummy, very good for the Tummy!

Eating Catfish makes for some vivid dreams the same night.
I miss Lake Livingston.

Running trout lines in the river, and holding fish Fry's for my friends on land.

Life is only as good as you make it, my friends.

Houston ping; gotta see this catfish caught by NW mall.

Let's hope they didn't eat it.
