That is a monster fish!

Just for reference on how big fresh water fish can get, it is documented that in the year 1928 a sturgeon was taken from the Snake River (Between Idaho and Oregon) that weighed 1500 lbs.

I saw that the other day. I wonder if they went "noodling" for them??? Living on (right on) the Missouri River we see idiots doing that all the time. Of course we hear about a drowning or 2 a season from it...

I heard they cut that fish up and served it, man that is a lot of catfish nuggest. I did not realize they had hillbillies outside the US that were not expatriates.

The fish was caught and eaten in a remote village in Thailand along the Mekong River, home to more species of giant fish than any other river. The American country singer Charlie Daniels and his band were there at the monumental fish fry. The country music legend was quoted as saying that the corn meal covering on the catfish, "would make Tennessee proud".
