An Oklahoma fishermen has landed an enormous flathead catfish to win a prestigious regional competition -- but the "noodling" method by which he captured the whiskered behemoth is far more compelling than the 70-pound weight of his fish.
Kaleb Summers first dove into a portion of the Oklahoma River and discovered a vast cavern in which the flathead had built its nest. Female flatheads are highly territorial, and this one lashed out. "She did not like me being in there," Summers told the Tulsa World. "It picked me up and rolled me."
