Hooked a pretty good catfish last night. I knew I was in for a battle when she hit my bait like a train wreck. She ran for about 50 yards before I got her turned around and headed back towards the boat. Then she surfaced and I could see she was a blue in the 70 to 80lb range (at least). She got close to the boat and seeing it spooked her, so she dove straight under the boat, wrapping around the anchor line. Not slowing down, she dragged both anchors and the 18 foot boat I was in about 100 yards or so before everything just stopped. I held onto my rod while my buddy pulled in the anchor line to find just an empty hook wrapped around it. Oh well, at least I know where that old blue lives now......
