Highly accomplished angler Régis had spent most of the past month spinning for both bass and black bass but getting back after catfish saw him land and a true monster and a record for the southern French river when his deadbait, presented on a buoy rig, was picked up by this beast.
The fish took 45 minutes to beat on a Black Cat Buster Rod and Size 80 Fin Nor Sportfisher Reel; it was measured at 2.50m in length and weighed in at 100kg.
