We each landed dozens like this - it was a blast.

Definitely added points to the retirement "Pros" column
I hate touching catfish too.Can't wait to really retire, been working quite a bit this quarter but snuck out early afternoon. I got some pigs too, never caught them on a fly before. Every time they came to certain depth they would take off to the depths again. I didn't touch a one, ewww.
