  That is a monster catfish 

 

The flathead catfish grows to a length of 155 cm (61 in) and may weigh up to 55.79 kg (123.0 lb), making it the second-largest North American catfish (after the blue catfish, Ictalurus furcatus). More commonly, adult length is about 15–45 inches (38–114 cm). Its maximum recorded lifespan is 28 years.

I built one just like that from plans most likely from Popular Science.  I was still in school when I built it.  A Johnson 9.9 pushing that Pumpkin Seed got your attention.   It was the most unstable boat I've ever been in.  Like skipping a rock across a pond.  On top of that it had a bad habit of allowing water over the transom if you stopped too quick.  Fast?  Oh yeah.  I operated on a lake with a 10HP limit and was told never to bring it back since too many pontoon boat operating old geezers complained about how fast it was.

Did you ever hear the story behind this music video : MirrorMan by Human League 

" A pebble skips across the face , a dozen times then disappears without a trace , left behind the thrower turns and walks away , a change of mind 

 

 

Ya , boy was going for a water speed record on Loch Ness and hit a wave out of nowhere and they never found his body , they say it might have been " Nessy , the Loch Ness Monster " made a wave
