BRITISH angler Ian Welch has landed a world record with this monster
– a giant stingray which is the biggest freshwater fish ever caught using a rod and line.
Ian hooked the FIFTY FIVE STONE beast
– which nearly pulled him over the side of the boat
several times during a 90 MINUTE battle – before he landed it.
It took THIRTEEN grown men to heave the fish
– which is the size of a garden shed – out of the water.
Weighing 771lbs it smashed the previous record of 646lbs for a huge catfish caught in 2005.
Ian, a freshwater biologist, had been visiting Thailand to help with a stingray tagging programme when he hooked the denizen of the deep on the Maeklong River
