Kayak Catfish........

Awesome catfish footage taken in Nebraska 

Pretty impressive fish.  That's what I was hoping for this last summer but could only manage a few smallish ones.

It's nice to see them let those monsters go.

Where's the life jackets?? With current like that you better believe I would be wearing a PFD. Ppl think life happens fast, death can happen even faster.

Looks like the Platte River, part of it was filmed under the I-80 freeway (and RR) bridges.  There have indeed been fatalities on that stretch of the river (I lived there for 27 yrs...), and far too many people go out there and fail to treat that water as it deserves...  The worst one was a young father on a church group outing who drowned in a logjam a few miles downstream from here because "he was a good swimmer" (according to the widow).  His 5 and 7 year old sons survived because *they* were in PFDs.  His idiocy left them alone.  :-/  Any river pushing 60,000+ cfs deserves respect and caution.
