Got stung by the first so bad that I was happy he swallowed the hook

They can still wiggle out of your hand and stab the chit outta you .ask the kayak guy that got hacked

2 things not mentioned were that when stung a venom from the catfish is what makes that signature painful sting and the other is that the spines are barbed along the whole spine, sorta like a saw so that when poked deep enough it holds onto you. I got pricked by a small one last night haha.

With bigger ones over 10 or 11 pounds their spines dull over time

I was 8 - 9 years old when I got stung by one. Was not pleasant. Never touched one again.

I just had to grab one by the mouth with my hand the other night, bit hard and I thought for a second I made a mistake but it didn't pierce enough to bleed surprisingly.

All the videos I have seen show you how to hold the fish, but no one shows how to pick it up from the ground.

You can also flip them around with your hand over the back of the fish and hold them the same way, except that the back of your hand then holds against that dorsal barb and it's not swinging free. Fish like to wiggle in your hands and that's how I learned to hold any catfish.

If someone could explain how would you hold a large one 10+ pounds I caught one the other day and felt bad because I used lip grippers to put it back in but I have seen people hold bigger ones by the bottom lip
