Tennessee Woman Catches Monster 88-Pound Catfish

A Tennessee woman is going viral this week for hauling in a massive catfish that weighed 88 pounds.

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency recently tweeted an image of Paula Cathey Smith of Waverly, Tennessee, sitting in the boat holding up her massive fish.

The post said Smith soon safely released the 88 pounder back into Kentucky Lake.

The catfish was apparently Smith’s “personal best,” with The Tennessean reporting that her last personal best was an 82-pounder.
