100 pound flathead? That's a shirt-tail kid around here. The catfish get so big around here that fishermen have to use whole steers as bait. Then there's the problem of all the junked cars driven into the lakes here. The catfish use them as natural cover - if they get hooked by a fisherman, they just swim to the nearest submerged car, get inside, then roll up the window.

"Why these morons can't figure out how these fish got upriver is beyond my comprehension." My guess would be that they swam there?

I fished in the Susquehanna while growing up. I never had a fish story like this.

Noodling even has a 'world series' in Oklahoma. Make of that what you will.
There is also a documentary out on Public Television about noodling. God knows why they call it educational TV.

Now you mention noodling. Does this really work? Do the cats just bite your finger and then you "hook" them? Or will they try to swallow your fist? Do you actually catch many fish this way?
