When Lucy Millsap walked onstage in a hot pink tank top with a 72-pound catfish hoisted over her shoulder, the crowd couldn't help but take notice.

Several snapped pictures with the 19-year-old from Quinlan, Texas, on their cellphones.

“It's nice to come to Oklahoma and be famous for a big catfish,” Millsap said.

Millsap drove three hours hauling her dusty brown, whiskered catch in a red tub in her truck bed to claim the top prize at the 14th annual Okie Noodling Tournament.
