My girlfriend once caught a state record white catfish (about 3 lb.) that we ate for dinner. I know for sure it was the state record fish, because we later saw what is now the state record fish caught on KY Afield, and hers was definitely bigger. That guy didn't know what he had, either, until Tim Farmer told him. On the bright side, that was one great fish dinner we had that night! White cats are great eating.
