CATFISH

Belzoni, Mississippi is known as the Catfish Capital of the World

Paris, Tennessee is home to an event that claims to be the "world's biggest fish fry." Hungry visitors will consume about 12,500 pounds of catfish during the festivities, which last for six days. The event began in 1953 and includes parades, square dances, an auto show, and, if you're lucky, a catfish race!
Library of Congress Local Legacies Project

The largest catfish ever caught, was a flathead catfish that weighed 123 pounds, caught by Ken Paulie on the Withlacoochee River in Florida, May 14, 1998.  The largest blue catfish caught with rod and reel weighed 111 pounds. It was caught in Tennessee on July 5, 1996.
