I have a phobia of fish, and I couldn't imagine having to grab onto a fish like that.
What's really amazing is that the reason catfish do this is because you are effectively provoking them in their nest. They are simply trying to guard their children from predator fish and crawdads. It's effectively the same thing with most species, including bass, pike, and sunfish.

It's not the fish that scares me, it's that there are snapping turtles, venomous snakes, and alligators in those waters and holes

For me, it's just a phobia. No real reason to it at all, a tiny fish will make me freak the fuck out for no good reason at all.
Seeing a Scotsman talk with Southerners is absolutely hilarious :v:

I think everyone should be afraid of those.

I can't even fathom that, what a terrible fear. Can you eat them at least, or is only live fish that bother you?

Dead fish, absolutely no problem. I can eat fish, hell I love salmon. It's just live fish freak me out. I can walk past the fish aisle, I'll just get this really uncomfortable feeling even though they are dead.
I remember I went fishing my dad and uncle, and I had no problem fishing, until I had to pull it out of the water. That's when I started just freaking out. I don't understand why I have this and it's sort of rough since I love the sea, I've always wanted to go scuba diving but I imagine that as soon as anything would touch me, I'd freak out.
I've tried playing Subnautica to see if I can face my fears, and the first enemies made me panic.
