the catfish look very much alive to me, they dont userally turn that white when they die, big sucker too.

the second catfish is scary, i think fishing for me ends when the fish u catch can eat you.

I dont see the point of hooking a dead fish to some fishing line, then realing it back in! LOL.

Wow, those are huge. It lookes like the first one is uppside down. So maybe its bottom could just be white? But I do think it is alive. I remember reading about the second one. It broke the world records.

I should hope nobody would do that. I was referring to the fact that the fish is upside down and looks tired out to the point of death.
