My brothers used to go gigging for large catfish. They would go out in an old boat; one would go underwater and gig large catfish from underneath rocks.

BJ Fudge Biggest Fish topped by 1 still in Green River Lake, KY Catfish vs. Wrecker: Catfish, 1. Wrecker, 0 Wherein, stopping short of accusing Great Wooded South columnist of outright Prevarication, 1st, Adair native son reminds us of a firsthand account from the late Otley Gilpin himself of one of the monster catfish in Green River Lake at Plum Point About: "The biggest fish story ever" By Dave Rosenbaum, Frankfort, KY - but honest - denizen Of noble Fairplay-on-Scenic 704, Adair Co., KY stock and nativity The fish in the story from Mr. Fudge was indeed a tolerable big fish but I suspect that the story was fabricated. It did remind me of a true account written some years ago by a great Adair County reporter and journalist.
