An experienced Italian angler who recently reeled in a mammoth catfish is awaiting confirmation whether it is a world record after his hefty catch measured over 9 feet long (approx. 2.7 meters).
Building contractor and pro-staffer at Madcat Fishing Alessandro Biancardi, 43, from Ostiglia in Mantua province, Italy, caught a monster catfish on May 25. The angling enthusiast with 23 years’ experience dips his line every single day and reeled in his personal best before 10 a.m. while fishing alone at his local River Po following a flood.
