What is going on in Lake Conway? Arkansas Game and Fish posted this image on its Instagram page yesterday, and we on the staff at Arkansas Times have questions. Namely:

What time of night is best to hook a monster catfish? The wee hours of pre-dawn, like catching a meteor shower? Or straight-up midnight?

We sure there’s not some interspecies DNA involved here? Lake Conway kinda has a history.

At around 50 lbs. each — and assuming you were employing the talents of an experienced chef — how many people could this pair o’ bottom dwellers feed at a fish fry? Are they even good eatin’? How much tartar sauce would be an appropriate amount in this situation?
