Subject: RE: BS: Who's been a naughty Catfish?
I think that's about right for the Danubian Wels (the official figures, not the ones here withthe added zero). THe WEls was officially introduced into a few lakes here and also a few rivers int he late 60s or earlly 70s, as was teh Zander (or Pike-Perch). Sizes at that tiem were expected to go to about 30 pounds for the Wels. Fisherman's tales of large Zander persisted for a while.
