A fisherman caught a giant catfish in the Pripyat river

Pripyat brings another surprise! A few days earlier, a fisherman from Belarus, Mikhail Mitsur, had caught a 210 cm long catfish, but another fisherman already broke his record, writes “Agro-Center”.

On July 16, Victor Martynovich went fishing with his son. It took the men an hour and a half to get the fish tired. When the exhausted catfish was taken out of the water, it turned out to be huge. It was 215 centimeters long and barely fit into the boat.

“I am an experienced fisherman. I caught catfish that weighed 35 kg. It’s not easy to surprise me! My hands still hurt and I am still very emotional about what happened!”

said the fisherman.
