Largest blue catfish: Nick Anderson set world record (Video) GREENVILLE, NC, USA--Nick Anderson, 29, worked 45 minutes to snag a 143-pound blue catfish in Buggs Island Lake (officially the John H. Kerr Reservoir), just over the Virginia line from North Carolina - setting the new world record for the Largest blue catfish.
This new West Virginia blue catfish record tipped the scales at nearly 60 pounds and was just under 45 inches long. According to the story, the old record, which still holds the length record of 47 inches, had a weight of 52 pounds. That fish was also caught out of the Ohio River.
