Keith “Catfish” Sutton’s first article about the outdoors was published in 1978, the same year he earned a degree in wildlife management at Arkansas State University. In the years since, this Arkansas native’s stories about fishing, hunting, nature, outdoor recreation and conservation have been read by millions of people around the world.
Sutton had no training as a journalist when he started writing for a small weekly newspaper, but his stories and photographs have since appeared in hundreds of magazines, newspapers and websites, including titles as diverse as Field & Stream, In-Fisherman, Bird Watcher’s Digest, Front Porch, Cooking Wild, Sporting Classics, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Progressive Farmer. He also has written 13 books and contributed to 92 more, including Hardcore Catfishing, Hunting Arkansas, The Crappie Fishing Handbook and Duck Gumbo to Barbecued Coon: A Southern Game Cookbook, which he co-authored with his wife Theresa.
Sutton’s recognitions have been many. In 2012, he was enshrined in the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame as a Legendary Communicator, and twice he has been honored as Conservation Communicator of the Year by the Arkansas Wildlife Federation. In 2021, he was inducted into the Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame, and in 2022, he was an inaugural inductee in the American Catfishing Association’s Catfishing Hall of Fame. He has received more than 70 awards and special recognitions from Outdoor Writers Association of America, Southeastern Outdoor Press Association (SEOPA), Association for Conservation Information, National Shooting Sports Foundation, Izaak Walton League of America, International Association of Business Communicators, American Farm Bureau Federation and other organizations.
Theresa Sutton also is an accomplished writer, photographer and editor.
