Do Aliens inhabit the Red River?









Yup...that's one crazy kitty. It was caught by Big Shanon B...The SumoHunter. Fought well, and just about made me jump back when I seen it. Looked like something out of the movie Alien.

Wow, that is goofy looking. Darren and I had a somewhat goofy-headed channel cat in the boat the other day but it wasn't ANYTHING near that goofy! That's neat, thanks for the cool pics.

That's the second mutant I have seen this year. I caught a pike with a head that was angled downward. Yours is much more prominent though. What a cool fish, thanks for sharing. Maybe we'll see a subspecies evolve out of it.

That by far is the wierdest cat I've ever seen.

It is straight out of Dr Suess, or the Simpsons.

Thanks for sharing.

Some type of trauma when very young is likely the reason for this malformation. I have seen catfish with broken backs that grow to 20 plus pounds, and shaped live a V, and yet hearty as a hog. Just go's to show you how adaptable and tough they are.
