A husband and wife fishing team, Shaun and Chloe Ing, caught a catfish weighing 150 pounds and measuring eight feet long at Chigborough Fisheries in Essex. This fish is likely to break the current UK record of 143 pounds. The couple spent 90 minutes reeling in the fish, which was described as "unstoppable." They were interrupted by a Chinese takeaway delivery just as the fish bit, ruining their meal. The couple is now waiting for the British Record Fish Committee to confirm their record claim. The world record for catfish remains at 280 pounds, caught in Italy.
