There is something poisonous on them. Not sure if it's the dorsal fin or around the gill plate. I handled one once. Never again! When I tossed the fish back in the water something cut my finger. My arm turned bright red from finger to elbow. My finger bled for a long time and the pain was excruciating. I have been stuck by both fresh and salt water catfish and stung by jellyfish. I have even stepped on and been stuck by stingrays. Nothing in my experience compared to this pain! If I hadn't been so far offshore I would have gone to the hospital. Point of narrative. Don't touch them!
