Angler Snags 7-Foot Monster in Likely World Record Catch

They say everything is bigger in Texas, and this angler learned as much after a four-hour lesson.

A Kentucky man named Art Weston is reportedly the proud record holder after angling a a gigantic alligator gar following a four-hour battle in a Texas lake earlier this month. According to Fox Weather, Weston has a knack for snagging giant fish. He reportedly holds 40 world records, but this one truly set the bar.

After a four-hour battle, Weston reeled in a 7-foot-3-inch, 153-pound alligator gar.
