Thanks for the cool link. Too bad the top 10 largest fw fish are all endangered.

Thats probably the number 1 reason why i wanna go cat fish fishing . Those things have amazing amounts of strength , its insane to me . It would be like hooking up with a 50 or 60 lb burbot but would fight like a salt water fish. There strength is insane , that why i wanna know if theres any around alberta cus i wanna go for them.i shouldnt have to go all the way to manitoba to go after these beasts.

Truely a nice fish thanks for shareing but this part of this statement

But in the last century the Mekong giant catfish population has declined by 95 to 99 percent, scientists say. Only a few hundred adult giant catfish may remain.

Since 2000 five to ten fish have been caught by accident each year throughout the Mekong area.

makes me want to ask how many fish go un- reported:confused:I Guess all good thing's dont last forever.
