Are you going to just look at it, or are you going to fry it!

Wow. I'll need a much larger frying pan for that one!

[DruidCity]

That's incredible

You could feed everyone in metro Atlanta for a month on that monster !

FWIW, here's Alabama's largest :

"Wheeler Lake, a section of the Tennessee River below Lake Guntersville, is not only where McKinley caught his record blue catfish in 1996, but it's also where Sammy Springer of Rogersville landed a 132-pound blue with a gill net that same year."

Locally, the largest I've heard are in the 90+ range.

At the state park in Jackson, MS, there's an aquarium exhibit with a 50+ pound albino catfish:

Michigan's largest fish was caught from Mullett Lake, which is near the northern tip of the lower peninsula, right off of I-75. It was a Sturgeon that was 7 feet, 3 inches long & weighed in at 193 pounds!

No, I don't have a pic....or at least I couldn't find one last night. I'll run a few searches later to see what I can come up with.
