Fishermen set a record for the most distinctive and heaviest golden catfish in the Ebro River

‘There was mayhem on the bank with people cheering and clapping. We had bottle of champagne to celebrate it and Chris poured a drop into the river for the
fish.’

Sheila Penfold, from Wandsworth, South London, caught her 192lb albino catfish last October.

The biggest catfish ever caught in the world is a staggering 646lb – or 46 stone – Giant Mekong Catfish caught in Thailand in 2005.
