Water is still high two weeks later, making for poor fishing and we sat in the rain for a couple hours today, but I ended up with the biggest catch this time  ;D

Yes, they can fin you, but it's usually only a problem with smaller ones as they have sharper spines in their fins, as they get bigger/older they are pretty dull. A good trick is to rub their belly slime on the wound and the sting is gone almost instantly.

LOL classic shot Nick!

Do those catfish have barbs that can sting you?

Nothing big... water was high and moving fast (just downstream from the dam) so fishing was poor, but beautiful weather.

I was out-fished...
