By the looks of the dead Catfish that Pelican had it in it's beak for days. Looking at the sand where I first spotted you can see had had been struggling so much it dug a deep hole. It's pouch had a couple big holes but if it can manage to eat it will heal up and live. I think it was about ready to give up and die. It acted like it wanted to come to me to help but did not like the net. I didn't want to grab it by the neck to pull it in, it might have hurt it, the net is the best way to get them out of the water.
