Pbass, what are his chances?

[Steve_89]

Came home to find this. Is this a bad sign?

Is it bad that it swalled it tail first??

Thanks,
Steve

what fish did he swallow? if that's a tig i would have been real pissed with my fish

 

[Steve_89]

Nah just a pictus cat I couldnt catch.

This had to happen oneday.

Could be bad... Can you catch the mono and snip the fins from the Pictus so he can swallow or try and remove the pictus as to me there is no way that catfish is going down like that.
One of my old pikes swallowed a small featherfin cat athe same way. after a couple of days i had to resort to removing the fins so he could get it down as there was no way otherwise.

surprising, pictus cats have 3 long sharp spines that are used to lodge in attackers' throats...

Yep

My cousin got his Pictus cat tangled in his net when he was acclimatizing it. We couldn't get it undone so we cut the net as close cut as we could and in bout a week the Pictus got out of the tiny piece of mesh that was tangled!

Glad its OK now. I should upload the pics of my 12" Pbass eating a 9" TSN.

He actually had 2 9" TSNs
