Request Wels Catfish size tweaking

[Mousaka_H]

Can the Wels catfish be tweaked for the new waterways especially Russia? I see way too many young Wels catfish being caught and they are like 4lbs. Grant it I have caught a 118 lb catfish but hundreds of others that are tiny. Was hoping developers could tweak this as Wels catfish are huge and very young ones are near 20 lbs. hoping that for Russia and Germany that young be tweaked that smallest one is 15 lbs or removed. From what I can see the Blue catfish are scaled at larger sizes and Wels make them look like tadpoles. My suggestion is For the sizes for the Wels catfish is young-15lbs-30lbs, common-30lbs-50lbs, trophy-50lbs-75lbs, and unique 75lbs-219lbs. Can this be looked into. Currently on average the channel cats at mud water and are just as big with the exception of a trophy or a unique. Think this also would be good as the new keepnet can hold a 220lb fish and Wels definitely get that big and then some. I can understand about the Beluga not being able to keep them because that’s how it is IRL. Others please share your thoughts. I understand that these are new waterways and believe you are already working on issues but this is one request I am sure everyone would like. Who doesn’t like catching 100lb plus fish. Want to thank the developers for all their hard work appreciate any feedback.

I dont really care about catching some smaller wels here and there, however i do wish and think they should allow the uniques to get bigger than 118. Im hoping they end up making alot of these fish get bigger. Unique Alligator Gar would be awesome. I actually wish they would just add fish from River Monsters lol.

I’m not sure if it’s just me but I can go to Germany and snag multiple uniques and a lot of trophy’s and don’t think I have caught a young one yet. Russia I find there is a ton of little Wels cats a trophy here and there and a unique maybe if you are lucky. I’m even getting young Wels on a 8/0 hook that’s a pretty big hook. It may just be R and G for me but that’s what I have been running into. I hope they go that route as well hoping they add the Nile or something like that for Goliath tiger fish the Mekong and the 600lb stingrays and the Amazon well for everything. As for unique alligator gar yeah that would be unbelievable don’t forget the paddlefish either. Hmm is that a hint that Oklahoma needs a pond in the game maybe with monster blue, and flatheads as well? Hmm could be. Noodling?
