At least it didn’t get away.
David Hayes’ granddaughter just ask 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.

Maybe it’s time to take another look at those pink .22LR rifles at Gander Mountain.
That 16-pointer is waiting…
Awwww, she’s got her grampa’s chins. Precious.
