(SHEPHERDSVILLE, KY.) - A Kentucky man caught the catch of a lifetime in his front yard on Sunday.
Photos posted to Facebook show a man holding a large catfish in front of a home in Shepherdsville, about 20 miles south of Louisville on I-65.
According to Louisville Patch, the man, Robert Watkins, often goes out with a friend to set fishing lines on trees when the nearby Salt River floods.
But he didn't have to go far to catch this more than 50 pound catfish. He just stepped out into his front yard.
Shepherdsville and other areas of northern Kentucky experienced severe flooding over the weekend.
The catfish was released back into the water and allowed to swim to freedom.
