The difficulty of the task was apparent due to the size of the catfish, which was much larger than the average fish.
The slimy nature of the fish also made it difficult for the men to maintain their grip.

The video has sparked a debate on social media as some netizens claimed that one of the fish would cost nothing less than N1 million.
Some concerned netizens also suggested that the men can easily raise the basin and throw the fish into the pond instead of trying to lift them.

Man catches big fish outside water
Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria previously reported that a man who caught a big fish has released it back into the river and allowed it to go without harming it. In a 41 seconds video posted on TikTok by @zahiddubai7, the man was walking by the river banks when he saw the fish. The fish was lying outside water in a dry and dusty environment that looked like a beach.
It is unknown how the fish got outside the water, but it was seen struggling as if it needed to be rescued and taken back to the water. The man arrived at the scene just in time to help the fish. He held it by the tail and dragged it to the river. He then placed the fish on the water and nudged it to return to its habitat.
Within seconds, the fish swam away. Meanwhile, interesting reactions have trailed the video. While many people have hailed the man for his kind-heartedness towards the fish, others would have preferred him to eat it.
