I wonder why the small size for a State Record? Tennessee's record is 112 lbs. Kentucky is 107 Lbs. https://www.wdrb.com/news/fisherman-catches--pound-blue-catfish-in-the-ohio-river/article_ed5314e4-7344-11e9-bade-e755fe2a84be.html
Fisherman catches 107-pound blue catfish in the Ohio River
The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife says fishermen have broken at least four records since last October.

SFC (Join to see) - It's a bow fishing record, not rod and reel record. The World Record Blue Cat came out of Kerr Lake on the Roanoke River in Virginia at 143 LBS.

Hunting the Big Blues and Flatheads is very popular in my part of the country. 80-90 LBS fish are not that uncommon. Yes, they fish with what looks like deep sea fishing tackle.

Wow! A Channel Catfish at 58 lbs. I didn't think they got that big. Thanks for a good article.

That is what I was thinking, I live close to Owensboro, KY and about 3 years a gentleman caught a 103lb blue and didn't even break the record.
