hopes of catching a 60-pound trophy and perhaps a few minutes of fame.
Snapshots of grimming fishermen proudly posing with their hefty catches are tacked on a wall of Hippys Bait Shop. Second floor, a restaurant built east from Lawrence Riverfront Park.
Sounds kind of fishy, doesn't it? But this isn't another tale about the big one that I'm telling you.
LAST YEAR, THE biggest fish dragged into the bait shop weighed 61 pounds, said Judy Higgins, the son's owner.
LAWRENCE'S GIANT catfish could mean big bucks for Mrs. Paul. For example, one 85-pound catfish would be worth $1,800 crunchy, lightly battered fishsticks.
WITH PIN-POINT accuracy Russell cast with a side arm motion. His line, laden with sinkers and worms, gracefully falls off the river and plunged into the depths of the river.
The lure of landing a big one drew Lawrence residents Jim Russell and Jack Browne.
"I didn't do it," Higgins said. "I didn't want to tangle with no fish in the water. They have rough teeth like a man's wiskers. They can tear a man's hide off."
Biggers, however, took a more relaxed approach to fishing. He lounged on a rock
But many years ago, fishermen dove into the water with large hooks lashed to their wrists to try to snare the big catfish, also known flatheads, he said.
"People just don't catch 'em, so they grow," he said.
"Everyone assumed that he went under the dam," Judy Higgins said, "but they didn't."
And when these fish bite, they really bite.
According to an old fisherman's tale, a man dove into the water and never came back.
rarvey Hasler, manager of Lunker Bait and Tackle, 651 E. 23rd St., said the catfish were large because they were old and could find plenty of food in the Kaw to eat, such as small fish, frogs, crawdads and snakes.
"Yeah, you know when you have a big one on your line." Russell said.
"Anything that wiggles and moves, they'll eat," he said.
Jim Russell. Lawrence resident, balts his hook in hope of catching something to fill the frying pan. He was fishing Easter day on the Kaw River dacross from the Bowersock Mills and Power Co., Sixth and New York streets. Russell never caught the big one. He had to settle for a lot of nibbles and a five-inch channel catfish, which he tossed back.

summit and would unilaterally halt deployment of Soviet triple-warhead SS-20 missiles targeted on Western Europe.
Gorbachev said the moratorium would last until November and he urged the United States to stop simultaneous deployment of Pershing 2 and cruise missiles in western
BUT THE WHITE House quickly dismissed the move as "not enough," citing a 10-1 Soviet superiority in medium-range nuclear missiles in Europe.
The deployment of 572 medium-range U.S. missiles in five European nations began in late 1983 as part of a 1979 NATO plan to counter the SS-20s. The United States said the Soviets had 414 SS-20s operational, two-thirds of them aimed at western Europe.
Tass said yesterday that U.S. officials used "stale arguments" of Soviet missile superiority to reject Gorbachev's proposal and accused them of being too worried about their warheads. Tass also said U.S. officials failed to include British and French forces in their missile count.
