How a Bow Fisherman Caught a Monstrous Catfish—Shocking Video You’ll Stay Up For! In a jaw-dropping display of skill, patience, and pure fishing luck, a determined angler recently made headlines with a viral video capturing the moment he hooked a genuinely monstrous catfish using nothing but a bow. While traditional fishing gear dominates the scene, one man proved that creativity and strength can still make headlines—especially when a 100-pound catfish made its infamous debut! ### The Unexpected Struggle
Filmed in a remote river known for legendary catfish spawns, the video opens on a calm morning, ripples on the water, and the calm demeanor of the bow fisherman. The angler, armed only with a custom bow and line at an unconventional angle, prepares for abeg or “bow fishing”—a niche technique where archers use specialized bows to aim and shoot with precision. Within seconds, the bowstring tenses as the arrow flies. The powerful strike shakes the line violently—roots and water erupt in a dramatic burst. What follows is nothing short of cinematic: the ribbon of water frozen mid-air, the explosive impact, and then—silence—before the catfish tumbles onto the surface.
