Officials warn about invasive Flathead Catfish that can grow to be 100 pounds
Wildlife officials in Delaware are alerting residents of an invasive fish found in its waters.

It's called the Flathead Catfish. Several were recently discovered in Lums Pond.
 

"They are voracious predators. They prey on bass and bluegill which is the whole reason for this pond - to fish on bass and bluegill," Mike Steiger, Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control Fisheries Section Biologist, told Action News.

Steiger says one can grow to be 100 pounds
