Is this a fishy story?

Check out the guys holding the fish. Do they look strained from holding a 264 pound fish?

I would have said it's in the water, but it ain't..

Their facial expressions would also confuse me, they don't look like guys who would be holding a 240 pounder...

Maybe the article was wrong and the 120kg was a 120 pounds? Don't know, but you're correct... It does look fishy.

Lots of 240 pounders at the snake pit
Catch and release

Looks like photoshop to me. If you look at the dude on the left who's arm is visible, a 250 pound fish would be bulging at the belly because of the way it's being held.
