[QUOTE="cornbread, post: 209915, member: 4184"] 143 pound Cat fish (possible new IGFA World Record) Virginia angler Richard Nicholas "Nick" Anderson has every reason to be celebrating today. Yesterday, word that the State Record Fish Committee of the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (VDGIF) has confirmed the 143-pound catfish Anderson caught June 18 from the John H. Kerr Reservoir (also known as Buggs Island Lake) is the new state record. The committee reviewed the application, verified the location and species, weight, length and girth and declared it the new state record. A VDGIF Conservation Police Officer and a Fisheries Biologist were also present at the weigh-in. At 143 pounds, 57 inches in length, and a girth of 43.5 inches, this big blue smashed the prior record by more than 34 pounds. It also came from Buggs Island Lake. Anderson's catch is only the third confirmed freshwater fish over 100 pounds caught in Commonwealth of Virginia water. https://www.thefishingwire.com/features/224608 [/QUOTE]
