."I just want others to know we do have river monsters out here and I know there'seven bigger ones out there!!" he said. 11060591-large.jpgSubmitted photoNick Swanberg, of Baldwinsville holds up a 20-pound catfish he caught recently near the Three Rivers area.He wrote: "It's not everyday you see a channel cat like this one pulled out of the water around here and happens to be one of my biggest fish and Ive been fishing my whole life. The other fish that I caught that could rival it was a 46 -inch northern pike I caught in the same spot years ago. I'm an advocate for catch and release so I landed it, took a few photos and let it go on its way, but most people I show the photos to say it's the biggest fish they've ever seen someone catch around here so I'm pretty proud of it."I was fishing in Caughdenoy and nothing was biting so I decided to head to the spot nearThree Rivers that I knew of. I set up everything and within 5 minutes I had this fish hooked, my buddy didn't even have his pole in the water yet, it took about 10-15 minutes to land and once in the net it almost broke it, When we got it on land my buddy and Ilooked at each other and were like "no way" This thing was huge!! I caught it using a simple bobber and bass shiner combination.""I just want others to know we do have river monsters out here and I know there'seven bigger ones out there!!"
