That is a big fish and a proud boy and proud parents. 

Chattahoochee?  Is that the bridge that Billy Joe McAllister jumped off?  Ah, no, it was the Tallahatchie.   ???

Oh man.  That wasn't a pleasant movie...

The South isn't all together like that.

I love the South.

One of my favorite songs from the late 70's.  Bobbie Gentry really delivered on that one.

Great fish!  Congrats to the young fisherman!

That's GREAT....I love it when a kid gets a big catfish, turkey, deer or whatever!  I just caught part of a news story on TV the other night where a kid of about 8 years of age, along with the help of his dad, managed to snag and land a Missouri River paddlefish (or spoonbill, as they're sometimes called) that was just 9 oz. short of the state record of 127 pounds.  The news footage showed the kid lying alongside his huge catch.....it was considerably larger than he was!  :shocked: :lol:
