540lb Monster stingray landed!

Freshwater fish don’t come much bigger than this gigantic stingray.

Weighing an incredible 530lb and measuring more than two metres across, the monster fish was caught by Italian catfish angler Yuri Grisendi from the Mae Klong River in Thailand. Yuri battled with the formidable predator for over an hour before a team of guides from the FishSiam angling company could help him land and measure the beast. 

Yuri snared the fish using a heavy Okuma rod, Makaira multiplier and 10/0 circle hook armed with a large deadbait. Anyone like Yuri who’s interested in targeting big stingrays in Thailand can do so by visiting: www.fishsiam.com
