My nephew caught this a couple of weeks ago at lake texoma on the oklahoma side at 1am or so. The next day my daughter out fished me, my father-in-law, and nephew on a guided striper trip. She was responsible for 50% of the fish that we took home.

23# blue cat caught on rod/reel with cut bait. Crappy cell picture:

Took about 20mins to land on dock. We turned her back, she was full of eggs. We couldn't believe the line didn't break. When he set the hook she was about 15-20yrds out. Then the fish ran straight at the dock and out the other side stripping off over 25yrds of line before she stopped swimming and got tired. After she tired out we eased her back, walked her down the dock, and I grabbed her out of the water before she took off again.

Man those big blues like that have some teeth on them. They can turn a hand to hamburger meat.
