This is an eight-foot-long, 206-pound
albino wels catfish. It is a real thing
that exists in the wild and not just in
my nightmares.
The fish was caught by British
fisherman Bernie Campbell, who
snagged the monster in the River
Ebro near Barcelona, Spain. It is
believed to be the largest fish of its
kind ever caught, weighing ten
pounds more than the record fish
caught last year.
From the Daily Mail:
“When I got the fish closer to the
shore and I saw it was white, I
couldn’t believe it. It was so
strong it nearly pulled me in on
four separate occasions.”
Campbell was fishing with his son
when he hauled in the beast, a
process that took him half an hour. He
used a special hook with barbs on it,
as well as a super strong fishing line
that stretched 1,800 feet.

After taking some photos, the group
says they put the fish back in the river.
