Hello again everyone,been away for a while - busy on another non fish forum (gasp!)- good to see the thread's still going.

The Fishsiam team in Thailand has been catching Arapaima gigas for almost ten years.We have caught these prehistoric predators to a whopping 180kg's.
I have attached a few pictures.
All fish were caught from Bungsamran Lake in Bangkok and IT Lake Monsters in Ratchaburi Thailand.
The fish's weights in order 140kg+,100-110kg,160kg and 145kg.
