Catfish are well known for their unique aspect, with their prominent barbels which are similar to cats. Besides the fact that the catfish is a delicious plate, catching them is the most fun part. Why? Because they fight a lot, they are strong and the best time to fish for catfishes is at night, some fishermen say. And in some areas, they are plentiful, wandering in the depths.

More than that, Jean captured the entire moment on his video camera and that can be seen on the page, you’ll find the whole scene recorded, from the start to the final picture.
The fisherman was located in France, somewhere in the south-west, on a river named Tarn.
