Not For The Faint Hearted

It's Just a Catfish!
Here is why sissies use fishing poles

For all those crazy guys who go 'noodling' for catfish and stick their arms down the fish's throat!! This would be 'all the catfish you can eat.
Each year, a few people were drowning or disappearing mysteriously in Huadu's Furong Reservoir. It was not until recently, when the son of a government official went swimming, in the reservoir and was drowned, that the secret was revealed.
It is a 3 meter long man-eating catfish whose head alone is 1 meter wide! After cutting up the catfish people were surprised to find the remains of another man inside!


Swimming in the reservoir is now forbidden because it is feared another similar man-eating catfish is still lurking in the waters

*it's a hoax... and it's not a catfish.. it's a whale shark..*

A catfish with no barbels? Looks like a baby whale shark to me.

This article was up a while ago. The "catfish" is a juvenile whale shark. A totally peaceful shark that eats plankton.

Complete hoax.

No quite true. it will eat anything in its path as it swims with its mouth open. but its not intentially eating small fish....
