apparently caught be the world's smallest man...

I was thinking the same thing basically....But my thoughts were that the weight does'nt sound rite?? Conservative to say the least...I know that the Wells cats carry most of their weight in the forward section of their body....In other words they get VERY long....Jeremy Wade has fished for them a few times, and i believe he's gotten a few specimens up to nine feet long, and even on those shows the weight did;nt seem to match the length or girth.....

Some fish species are built that way i guess!!!!
