363kg Monster Fish Caught By 8 Men Breaks World Record

The gigantic fish which measured over 2 meters in width, 4 meters in length and weighed almost 363 kilograms was caught in the Maeklong River in Thailand. It took two hours, a group of strong men to take turns on the rod and a small fishing boat to reel in the stunning stingray.
It has become the largest freshwater fish ever caught by rod and line. The gigantic animal was caught by American TV nature conservationist Jeff Corwin with the help of fishing guides from UK-based Fishsiam Ltd. Jeff said, "According to leading stingray experts, this is likely to be the largest fresh water fish ever caught with a rod and reel. The battle to bring this giant fish to the boat was epic and it took many hours and multiple guys rotating off and on the reel.
