Common Name: Mekong Giant Catfish
Fish Weight: 154 lb

Just a few words to inform you we had a tremendous Mekong giant catfish catch this morning (March 17, 2006) by a UK angler, by the name of James Heighes.
James (25 years old) is from Petersfield, Hampshire. He's mainly into carp fishing in his homecountry. He booked us for a single day fishing which turned out to be the kind of unforgettable one for a sport angler.
James hooked up and landed a 154 lb (70 kg) Mekong giant catfish after having fought it for an hour and a half. Unfortunately again, his catch cannot qualify for a IGFA world record though it was much larger than the current 63 kg IGFA All Tackle world record. The unstoppable giant catfish succeeded to entangle James' line around structures not less than three times during the battle. Rules were broken as we had to swim and touch rod, reel, and line to help freeing the snagged line out of the structures, so we could secure the catch.
