World Record Freshwater Fish

This is the world's record for largest freshwater fish, at 646 pounds (293 kg). It is a Mekong catfish. Giant fish researchers - led by Zeb Hogan of the WWF and University of Wisconson tried to save it so it could spawn yet again, but it died and was consumed by hungry villagers.

Wow, tom-yam fish head that is enough to feed a whole village. Aloh mak!

I have a Surf Fishing site. It pretty much covers surf fishing and
fishing in general.

Come and check it out if you get time ;)
