Two years ago this month, the internet was abuzz with this photo of a redear sunfish. Angler Thomas Farchione landed this enormous 2.83-kilogram (6-pound, 4-ounce) fish out of Lake Havasu, Arizona, USA to set the IGFA All-Tackle World Record for the species - the same lake where the previous redear sunfish record was also caught. ![]()
