What about the rest of the meat? Is that another video, or did you leave out the best part of the cat?

Arkansas has disowned you and Texas has revoked your stay. Head on over to New Mexico.

They are so plentiful in Calcasieu Lake that a lot of the trout anglers who don't keep them to eat slice the gills or bonk their heads before discarding them for the crabs. They reckon there are only so many vittles down there to feed the trout and the gafftops are strong competitors. They also get sick of catching the "snot sharks." I prefer to bring them home since our family likes them better than channel catfish and about as well as blues. Not as good as flatheads through, but a cooler full of 3-7 lb gafftops is a good day.

Those things are nasty. Slime up the line, and anything they touch.

We bust them in the head with an aluminum bat and throw them back.
