I confess that I figured someone would want to know what my catfish sting remedy is. I believe peeing is if someone steps on sea urchins (I saw that on Survivor). Ok, the catfish remedy was told to me by this old guy fishing. He was catching some big ones so I figured he knew what he was doing. Sure enough the next time I got stung I tried it and it worked. When a catfish stings you it happens at the end of his front pectoral fins. They have a sharp bone there and it will sting as badly as getting stung by a wasper. You get a hold of the catfish and rub the sting on it's belly. This is nasty because catfish are slimy fish, but that slime will remove the sting. *** I suggest washing your hands asap with soap just to be sure you don't get the sting infected.
