The Oklahoma paddlefish weighed 146 pounds 11 ounces, and estimated to be 25 to 35 years old. After photos, the fish was released back into the water.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — It was Caitlin Lukehart's turnBut she was too tired from already catching several big ones, so she let her husband have the next turn on the pole.

"It was his first time out and he was the lucky recipient of a monster," Mefford said. "It was extremely windy, with winds blowing 20-25 mph, with very powerful rolling waves." "It was snagged towards the top half of the fish," Mefford recalled."When they're hooked that way, they don't have a tendency to pull that long."
