Today I collected and photographed a small blue catfish. It looks very
similar to the channel catfish of this size. I'm now thinking I've been
calling all these small yellowish cats channel cats where if I were to
look more closely, some would be blue cats. I was under the impression
that blues would be darker than channel cats at this size. Any opinions
from someone very familiar with this species?

Thanks in advance.
