Hungarian catches 7'4" Catfish |
This week we spied two great photos of European catfish that we thought we'd share.
In Hungary last week, Lajos Csendres caught a catfish that was over 7 foot long! 7 foot 4 inches (223.5 cm) to be exact! The fish, which weighed over 150 pounds (70 kg), was caught in Lake Kadarcsi, near Balmazujvaros, Hungary.
Meanwhile, in Italy, German fishermen Stefan Seuss, Uli Schupple and Patrick Nimz on a trip to Italy, had their boat dragged over a kilometre and half by a 99 kg (218 lb) catfish. The catfish was caught on the Po River in northern Italy.
That's some big fish!

I've got a mate whose brother fishes these big catfish in England. Also goes after bigcarp. Never thought I would want to catch golfish but I reckon I'll have to get over there one of these days and give it a go.
