Man catches ‘monster' 86-pound catfish from Missouri River
WASHINGTON, Mo. – A man recently hauled in the catch of a lifetime from the Missouri River, a 'monster' 86-pound blue catfish near Washington, Missouri. Wally Klein made his impressive catch using gizzard shad as bait on a road-and-reel setup. His feat required patience, strength and skill. Wally told the Missouri Department of Conservation it's the biggest fish he has ever caught. After snapping a quick photo, Wally released the massive catfish back into the river. According to MDC, the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers are prime waters for catching large catfish, especially blue, flathead and channel catfish. Tonia Haddix found to be hiding another chimp These catfish often gather in deep water below dikes, in dam tailwaters, or in the mouths of tributary streams. In the summer, they're commonly found around submerged structures, drop-offs, rocky banks and dike tips. Blue catfish in particular, like Wally's catch, favor fast-moving water near the main channel and waterways with a strong current. The Missouri and Mississippi rivers, despite their potential, can be intimidating for anglers, especially after storms or flooding. Strong currents and deep water demand different fishing strategies than those used in smaller lakes or streams. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

[WATCH: In the video player above, swimming safety tips.] (WJW) — Researchers report that a newly tagged white shark has 'pinged' close to the Canadian shoreline. According to the non-profit OCEARCH, a ping is reported whenever an animal's tag breaks the surface of the water. Couple left baby in car to drink at bar: Police Late Sunday night, 'Jason' pinged inside Georges Bay, Nova Scotia. The more than 500 lbs. shark was tagged just four days prior in Mahone Bay. OCEARCH said efforts to track Jason is part of a larger study on white sharks during their summer/fall residency period in Atlantic Canada. 4-year-old bit by mountain lion in national park 'Atlantic Canada and Newfoundland are important parts of the white shark's range, making them essential areas for managing the western North Atlantic population. Additional tagging efforts—including satellite-linked and acoustic tags—will aid scientists and policymakers in understanding white shark abundance in the region, their distribution and critical habitats, and how their presence has changed over time,' reads the OCEARCH website. OCEARCH encourages 'facts over fear.' The non-profit helps conduct research and provides education and outreach opportunities. You can learn more about OCEARCH and their work, here.
