Arkansas has Catfish, too!

Tom Bush shared an Arkansas Cat to give evidence that
Texas and Louisiana aren't the only states with big fish!
Here is Tom's email and two photos of Peewee and the Cat!

Went to Lake Quacita in Ark. April 13-19th.  Dogwoods were
in full bloom, spring is in the air, really a 
beautiful sight up there in
 the mountains.  Tip & Beth went, their son Dondi and his new adopted
son Bennie came down Thurs.  We really had a blast.  Weather was
good too.  I think the water temp. needed to come up a little because
the fish wern't biting all that good, except for the occassional good fish
 we caught.  Here is a tailgate pic. of Bush's PeeWee as he guards our
morning catch.   Going at 78lbs, this high fin 
blue catfish really got us in
good spirits.  We fished with several other campers from Arkansas, and
we all had a really 
big fish fry.  Yum Yum.  Sister Beth made here spectacular 
tarter sauce, and we all pitched in.  ....PeeWee had to have a little help landing
this one.  He usually holds the net for us.  lol  As you can see, he is constantly
 looking up in the trees trying to spot Mr. Squirrel, his hated enemy!
