The unrestricted division gives weights of the record blue at 118,flathead at 106 and alligator gar is 182.
The Oklahoma record 118 pound bluecat was caught in Lake Texoma,the same lake that gave Texas it's record 121 pound blue caught on R&R.The best catfish lake I know of for both numbers and size.

I thought my numbers were probably on the conservative side. Point being, there's some big ol' cat down deep. Who knows how big they may get. I'm sure some are embellished and some are true.
See post 131 for Okie records.
The 98 pounder still isn't up to the 118 pound unrestricted fish but it raised the r and r record quite a bit,IIRC.

I now spend most of my time on the Red and Washita along with Lake Texoma.There are more good fish caught out of the Lake because more people fish it than the Rivers.The Rivers are full of good fish but if you don't know them well it can be hard to get access.It's nice livin' in "hog" heaven.Spent a lot of time living and working on waters all over for different reasons but this area is the best catfishing for size and numbers that I know of.
Thought someone might post an article about the 98 pounder but hadn't seen anything so posted here to y'all.
