Man uses Barbie fishing rod to make record catch

ELKIN, N.C. - David Hayes' granddaughter just asked him to hold her Barbie rod and reel while she went to the bathroom. He did. And seconds later he landed the state record channel catfish at 21 pounds, 1 ounce.

Alyssa's father had bought the pink Barbie fishing rod for Christmas and she had caught a few bluegill before her grandfather hauled in the catfish.


You can read the rest of it but I had to laugh.... isn't that so typical?! lol.

A friend of mine was teaching his sons to fish.. you know "MAN STUFF" type of guy. His daughter, who was 4, put part of her peanut butter sandwich on the hook and threw it in.. and caught an 9 pound catfish. And no, his wife has NOT let him live it down 20 years later :headbang: :laughing:
 
This is not a 'fish story' but Ashelyn caught a fish on an empty hook once...we still think about that one all the time :scratch:
