These Famous Photos Are No Hoax! Is this the BIGGEST catfish ever caught by man?

120kg Monster Cannibal Catfish, Which Looks Large Enough To Swallow A Man Whole, Has Been Caught In Italy!


A fisherman in Italy has caught a giant cannibalistic fish weighing in at a hefty 120kg. Dino Ferrari hooked the Wels catfish, measuring 2.7m in length, last week in the Po Delta in northern Italy. It’s so huge it could be the biggest catfish ever caught with a rod and reel. Wels catfish can grow as long as 4m and weigh up to 390kg, although it is extremely rare to catch one over two metres long. They are known to even eat pigeons who have strayed too close, and can live up to 80 years old.
