Don't know, but as a cat lover, if I find out who it is...

Sure it wasn't baby catfish?

After having 3 of the overgrown rodents running around I've gotten quite attached. Wouldn't dream of using them as bait. Elton might have a few thoughts after they've been in his garden though...

 

You would think after the first dunking you would have dead not live bait. Either way it's a disgusting thought.

 

Spindle is right maybe catfish?? We used them live going after Cobia off the Mississippi Gulf coast.

Mrs. Spindle just told me that she heard it on the radio this afternoon about them using live kittens as bait to catch huge catfish (in Russia she thinks).

My plane ticket to Ruski is booked, with my baseball bat in my bag...

Still Mad :mad:
