Biggest rtc I’ve seen.

Rpul · Feb 4, 2019

Came across this online.

Thought I’d share it. Can’t say I’ve seen one larger then this.

Catch location - Surinam.

Wow that is enormous, definitely the biggest I have seen. I wonder how old one that size would be. Thx for finding that pic and sharing it

Can I keep it in a ten gallon for life?

It may not be very old given that rtc are rather fast growers.

That's def a big one but not quite as big as it seems. He's sitting indian style and the fish is a couple feet in front of him. Still 100+ lb for sure. Suriname/Guyana hold them to world record sizes I've seen pics of a few over 120lbs, that one has the fattest belly of any I've seen but doesn't look as long as some of the other beasts. Nice find!

How wide do you think that boat is? The fish is just about touching both sides and look at it's gut spreading on the deck.

Agreed, pictures can make them
Look large some times. Camera angles, holding them out. I actually found the picture whilst looking at fishing locations in Surinam for this year. Wouldn’t mind connecting with one over 100lb.
