IGFA World Catfish Record 228lb 6oz
Kevin Maddocks' 7 year
reign as world record holder is over! The IGFA has accepted
a claim of 228lb 6oz from German catfish angler Guenther Schwierzy.
The fish was caught from Italy's River Mincio. Ironically Kevin
was one of a small number of CCG members who pioneered catfishing
on the Mincio in the early 90's.
