CAMBODIA 13 TUES Nov 15 Big catfish On scooter with DPAs going to catfish 1300 getting off catfish going to boat to get across river 2217 getting on boat and going to DIY where the giant catfish is 2503 on boat going to catfish 2844 m -that's a big fish 2857 generator noise 2910 2B caught it but this is 2C they caught it 6am this morning 2948 m -when get here Sami -5am Getting closer to the fish ambi 3146 lots of talk in khmer 3248 zeb -yeah we got one it is great¿it is 7 feet long .. it prob weighs btwn 200 and 250 lbs. this is about the smallest. This is a small adult M -a small adult 1 -3 yr Z -10 yrs M -how old do they get Z -maybe 30 or 40 yrs old but no one really knows 3324 3324 z -we gave it antibiotics already it is actually really strong but the thing that worries me is if you see the fins the fins are all chewed up and even that could be enough to kill a fish thru infection so gave some antib and we will add some of that malachite green M -and the fins are chewed up bc of the net? Z -bc of the net. This is the first time that we have tried this fish tank but from past experience we know that fish we release die. And so this is a way we can hold for a while, see how strong it is, we put some salt in water give it some antib and hopefully that will increase its chances M -how long keep in tank Z -in a few hrs 3444 3448 m -you say he is strong and I see you pulling on its tail and getting to move around but other hand when you don't it kind of keels over on its side which is not a good sign 3457 z -well not a bad sign he doesn't have a lot of room to move around here though I think if we let him out he will swim but that is another thing we need to check the fact that he is s right now is not worrying but if I pulled him back and gave him room to swim and he didn't then that is worrying. Bc that means when we release him he won't swim he will sink and fish to get o2 in their gills they need to be swimming. Z -we have to ask sami¿5 about 1 ½ ago¿this fish actually looks pretty good except for fin damage. I am not sure what we can do about it except for antib 3554 M -chances? Z -bout 50 50 which is better than none -better than nothing M -how many have you seen this year Z -this is the second one in the diy¿third one we have seen bc we have seen one dead one up in campochang. This fish looks pretty good. You know there are always a million things going through my head. I hope it survives. It is bad for us if it dies. We are trying this new technique and if it dies while it is in this tank I am never going to hear end of it but we know from past experience that we need to try to do this so I am hoping that this fish will survive¿.w/out tank likely to die and also we know we see them when they die so we will hear about it a few days later. They will float up to the surface but once we release them in water we don't know what is happening -prob when we release most of these fish they float down to bottom of river and they 3719 and they sit here like this, still, and fish can not survive that way we are hoping that this fish will gather its strength back and when we release it it will be swimming . that is always the goal. When we release it is swimming not just sitting... (Notes truncated)
