Answer

B

Explanation

In the sentence "Garrett caught us a huge catfish for lunch," the phrase in bold "us" is the indirect object. The direct object is the thing being acted upon by the verb, in this case, "a huge catfish." The indirect object is the person or thing to whom or for whom the action is being done, in this case, "us." Therefore, "us" is the indirect object of the sentence.
