it means you have better luck than I do, I dreamt about fishing 4 nights in a row and didn't get a single bite. What bait were you using?
World records for each as followed: Channel catfish- 58 pounds Blue catfish- 109.25 pounds White catfish- 18.88 pounds Yellow bullhead- 4.25 pounds Brown bullhead- 5.50 pounds Flathead catfish- 91.25 pounds well i am not sure about the others but the world record for a blue catfish is a 124 pounds the guy that caught was from Alton Illinois and he caught it in the Mississippi A recent story on the Yahoo home page put the record, along with photos, at 130 lbs for the largest Blue Catfish in the world. Caught on the Missouri River in July of this year using a steel leader and a 40# test line. I was watching River Monsters and Giant Mekong catfish and supposedly weighed 464 pounds although there have been reports of Giant Mekong catfish and some other species weighing as much as 800 to 1000 pounds.
For catfish some bodies of water are much more prone to have trophy fish than others. Small ponds for instance may have large amounts of Catfish but will rarely have any true trophies. Bodies of water that hold Flathead Catfish and Blue Catfish are much better places to fish for a true trophy than a lake that only has Channel Catfish for instance
Yes. But large catfish eat small bluegill.
there was one fish in Asia a catfish that ate people and one day a person caught the fish and opened it there was pieces of people the fish was really large.

Probably the wels catfish a large spieces of predatory catfish the world record is 256 pounds though reports of ones 750 pounds it is the largest species in Europe
A Large Catfish that lives the Amazon
From what i have heard there are huge catfish, some large mouth and small mouth bass in that lake. But alas it is not legal to fish this lake and you can get a huge fine and possibly go to jail for 6 months if caught.
Put it in a very large freezer bag.
There are a large variety of 'sucker mouth' catfish. Most come from Central and South America but there are some species in Southeast Asia.
