    It doesn't look anything like a catfish (no barbels etc.).

    I only read the top part :/

    My mom sent this to me under the title "WOW! Wouldn't you have loved to fish this out?"

    And once i read through two or three paragraphs i popped it on here didn't know the whole story changed halfway through it.

    Indeed!

    That fish has at least five sets of gills…shark!

    My grand father caught a 102lb catfish. I have heard the stories of monster catfish but no one is yet to pull one out or show it…

    That was only a hoax.... that "catfish: are actually just a small shark, and that human remains are actually just shark's intestines that looks like feet with cr***h... remember that chinesse have darker skin that westerners, and that human remains are actually has the same colour from that fish's flesh...

    But the largest catfish that i have ever seen is just 1.5 meter's long, they actually live in the forested mountain river near my Bandung (lembang....) and they didn't eat humans, we eat them....

    A real big catfish is to be found here http://www.monstersandcritics.de/art...er-langen-Wels

    Best thing: the guy let the fish back into the water, nobody eats an old catfish like that, at least in my area. This one was 2,51 meters long and weighed 117 kg.

    Every so often you hear that a little dog was eaten by a giant catfish that's supposed to live in some of these dark waters (at least here in Western Germany)... Do you think that's true?

    I have seen a documentary on arte tv not too long ago. It sais it could well be a little "Dackel" was eaten by one of the bigger buggers. I like catfishes...alive! They are beautiful in my eyes! Well, I live right next to the Danube and it is fascinating to thing "There could be a 2,5 meter long fish right next to my doorstep".
