Nothing says love like a flathead
Marsha Bentley of Newcastle passed along a note and photo from her recent Valentine’s Day experience on Fort Cobb Lake.
Her husband took her fishing on Valentine’s Day and her prize was a 30-pound flathead catfish on a rod and reel.
“He told me I was going to catch something but I never expected this,” she said. “It took me a while to get in the boat but I managed. His friends are pretty jealous. He’s pretty proud of me and this was the best Valentine’s Day present ever.”
Why couldn’t I have met a woman who would have been happy with a catfish for Valentine’s Day? Oops, I hope my wife doesn’t read this!
