Bo Dudley and his
11-year-old boy Glenn filmed the moment they pulled a catfish out of the water
only to discover they had a fight on their hands for the catch with someone -
or rather, something - else.
Biting into the
side of the catfish was a watersnake, trying its best to hold on to what it
thought was dinner until the Dudleys interrupted its meal. "God he's
big," says Glenn in shock.
"He can have
that catfish," says Bo, before dropping his catch and the snake back into
the water.
The
footage was sent to ABC13 Houston by the Dudleys and posted to Facebook where
at the time of writing it has 130,000 views.
According
to the website Lake Lubbers, Lake Livingston is known as the catfish capital of
Texas.
"Fish
records include a 78-pound blue catfish, a 114-pound flathead catfish, a
12.88-pound hybrid striped bass and a 31.5-pound striped bass," it says.
Another recent
close encounter with a snake was caught on camera in Georgia when a man reached
into a petrol pump to pull
out a live 4ft snake that was hiding inside.
