I caught this Albino Blue Catfish on Thursday, April 12, 2012 in the Mississippi River in Cape Girardeau. It weighed 16 pounds. I had heard of albino blue catfish before but I had never seen anything like this until I caught one. The Conservation Office said that these fish are rare. I can't believe I caught this! Awesome!
