Default Catfish ID please

Caught this guy last week on a big crankbait on Dundee Lake. Didn't know cats would hit cranks, but then again, nothing in this river surprises me anymore lol.

Didn't get a chance to weigh him, as he hooked himself and twisted on both treble hooks and I had him out of the water for longer than id like. He was good sized though. Is this guy a decent sized one for Jersey?

My dad caught a 3 lb Bullhead on a Lucky 13 and I caught a 5 lb Channel on a #5 Rapala . They were both caught from lakes .

I know the fish eye lens on what I'm assuming is a GoPro makes the fish look a tad bigger but the state record is like 4 lbs 8 oz. That fish looks close dude... Fat slimy piggy... lol

I caught a Bullhead on a Daredevil once in upstate NY. Catfish never surprise me.
