I've done a lot of fresh water fishing in my life, and I've caught many a catfish. Usually the ones that I catch are called Bull-Head Catfish. They only get to be about 12"-18" and I usually only keep the big ones. Channel catfish are the ones that are sold in the supermarkets were I'm from. A tasty treat every once in a while, and even more fun to catch!
Catfish are very funny looking
They have two whiskers, don't ask me how
Their tails are short and have no hair
And they never say meow
Their diet consist of many things
Worms, fish, and some day old chicken liver
A taste for spiders and also "Spam"
If you slice them up a sliver
In my life I've caught a few
Hundred's up to date
But only one, had I let go
The rest were on my plate
I've cooked them up so many ways
I'll mention just a few
Cajun, blackened, deep fried in oil
But I like them most in stew
So if you catch one fishing
Or if you see them in the store
Bring them home and cook them up, enjoy!
You'll be going back for more
