Big Fish
What lurked in the depths, now is going to haunt your boat.
Be careful what you hook up. Aside from picking some vicious industrial garbage, you can bring to the surface some strange and unmentionable things. Most fishermen will happily brag about an extraordinary big fish (and we'll show plenty of those in this article). But sometimes the catch is so bizarre, that they'd rather try to forget it over a drink or two.
'Larger than life' (but hopefully still real) catches
We all know that the size of our largest catch is only limited to how wide we can stretch our arms, and how gullible your friends are. A picture would usually prove your story, if you don't mind occasional 'this is Photoshop... I can tell by the pixels' comments:
(a whale shark, not that big either)
Catfish the size of a small car? Well, almost.
'The World's Largest Catfish' catch happened in Thailand:

This is, by the way, officially the largest freshwater fish ever caught...
Here are more record catfish catches:

Kazakhstan: 130kg, 2.6 meters
'Fish in Distress' Needs Saving
According to this source an eight-inch basketball was stuck in a catfish' mouth - the 50-pound fish could not swim or dive, so Wichita resident Bill Driver used a knife to poke the hole in the ball and deflate it:

This fish is also asking for trouble:

The cutest of them all: an Axolotl - a freshwater salamander:
The one with the biggest 'cuteness factor' is the albino - white, almost transparent Axolotl. They are priceless creatures (made to be worshiped by Japanese schoolgirls)
Most Vicious of the Bunch
We all know this is 'fish-eats-fish' world -
Sharks... awesome creatures:
