I have watched ever episode of River Monsters at least twice. I love the show and love watching people search out the biggest fish in every body of water. One of my favorite episodes was filmed in southeast Asia where it took two small boats to help catch a massive stingray that was floating in the murky waters below.
It would seem that huge fish was not the biggest in those waters because a fisherman in northern Cambodia hooked what is being called the largest freshwater fish.
The giant stingray weighed in at 661 pounds and measured about 13 feet in length. The ray was tagged before being released back into the river. This will help researchers learn more about the massive species' behavior.
