KurauKing's Fishing Journal

This is my RIVER MONSTER QUEST. As an extreme avid angler, i would love to travel around the world in search of Monster Fish and will try my best to land it with my Rod and Line.  I believed this is the angler’s ultimate dream,  to have the experience of fishing the finest monster fish in this planet.   It is believed that Asia has the largest freshwater fish in the world. The large fish is known as “Pla Buk” or “huge fish.”  This fishes lives in the Mekong River and is found in Cambodia and Thailand waters like the Mekong Catfish and the Giant Freshwater Stingray.

In this Part One Video of my Monster Fish Quest, i managed to land some of the finest RIVER MONSTER FISH like the Hybrid Redtail Tiger Catfish, Alligator Garfish, Redtail Tiger Catfish, Chao Phraya Catfish, Asian Redtail Catfish, Arapaima Gigas, Giant African Catfish and Pacu at IT Monster Lake, Ratchaburi Province, Thailand.

ARAPAIMA GIGAS – The arapaima, pirarucu, or paiche is a South American tropical freshwater fish. It is a living fossil and one of the largest freshwater fishes in the world. Arapaima can reach lengths of more than 2 m (6.6 ft), in some exceptional cases even more than 2.5 m (8.2 ft) and over 100 kg (220 lbs).

The Mekong giant catfish, Pangasianodon gigas, is a species of catfish in the shark catfish family (family Pangasiidae), native to the Mekong basin in Southeast Asia. Mekong giant catfish is the world’s largest scaleless freshwater fish lives a tenuous existence in the murky brown waters of Southeast Asia’s Mekong River. Capable of reaching an almost mythical 10 feet (3 meters) in length and 650 pounds (295 kilograms), Mekong giant catfish live mainly in the lower half of the Mekong River system, in Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam.
