The Exploring The Jungle Between My Wife’s Crotchword "fish" doesn't do this creature justice.
"Loch Ness Monster" or "small whale" might be more appropriate for this 112-pound catfish caught in the Northeast Cape Fear River in North Carolina.

Brewington told a North Carolina ABC affiliate about the fish, saying, “In the water, it felt like it was pretty big, but like I said being that big I thought it would have already snapped the line, but I didn’t realize how big he was until I actually got my hands underneath him."
He was fishing with a 10-pound line, so the catch is pretty remarkable.
While the catfish's location is currently unknown, Brewington said he released it back into the river after staging a photoshoot with it.
