    Monster Catfish

    Hi all,

    I just thought I would show you a photo of two monster catfish that I found on the net. The larger of the two weighed in at 103 kg, the smaller one was 98kg.

    Pretty amazing what kind of fish are swimming around the rivers.

    Only one thing ta say.DAMN!
    The underlying spirit of angling,Is that the skill of the angler,Is pitted against the instinct and strength of the fish,And that the latter is entitled to an even chance for his life. Regards, Hardb8.Kickin tails and razin scales since 1979.

    Could you imagine if our Eeltail Catfish grew to that size. Then you'd really have to watch their dorsal spines.

    I recently watched a vid off the net of English fisherman catching 50kg catfish in Russia and I thought they were big, but those are huge . Not sure how well a 100kg catfish would fight but it would be bloody hard to shift that sort of weight off the bottom of a river.
