The Bulldoggers Club The Tale of the Ill-Gotten Catfish — Barbara Hay

Being a member of The Bulldoggers Club means you love horses, but it is also a ticket to fishing, roping, and all kinds of adventures. In this first book in The Bulldoggers Club Series, the Bulldoggers go fishing -- and Dru lands a monster catfish at Quicksand Pond. There's just one problem: the boys are fishing on Nurse Blanchett's land, without permission. Convinced they have a record catch, the boys decide to lie about where they caught their whopper and haul the catfish to town to be weighed at the local bait shop. Before the prize fish can be even fried, the boys learn how fast one big lie can get away from a fellow.
