Predator fishing fanatic John Neafcy switched his local waters for a trip to Thailand and was rewarded with this giant 250lb arapaima.
The Wigan angler jetted off to the popular Gillhams Resort and fooled the specimen after it fell for a big pellet hookbait.
John was also involved in several other memorable battles, taking Mekong catfish and Siamese carp to 95lb during the holiday.
