Lawton Man Caught One Massive Catfish and It’s on Video

I don't know if I am more impressed with him or the fishing pole that was able to reel that thing in.

This past Sunday George Washington was fishing along East Cache Creek. Mr. Washington told KSWO he loves to fish four to five times a week. I think he may have caught the catch of a lifetime on Sunday. It was all caught on video which you can see above and below. Below is the fish actually getting out of the water.

After twenty minutes he was able to reel in the 4′1″ Flathead Catfish. He hoped this would break the Oklahoma record for catching one with a rod and a reel which is currently at 78 pounds. Sadly, he did not. His catch came in at 60 pounds. Hey, that is still one hell of a catch in my opinion man.
