Don't usually tape them but my largest by weight is 12.3 lbs. in ne pa.

I catch Channel Cats on my home waters, my biggest is probably 12lbs, have seen bigger caught, biggest around 16lbs. I have been on 3 charters to the James River in Virginia. My biggest Blue Cat on that river is 47lbs. Have caught many in the 25lb to 35lb range. Saw one at the dock that another guy caught, it was 58lbs.

Our cats don't run that big in NY...at least not that I've found. 10 lbs is pretty good size around here.

In western newyork -specificly lake erie and its tributarys the average channel cat runs about 4 to 12 pounds  anything in the high teens-low 20,s is a big one around here--last year someone caught one 30 some pounds and had the new state record--lasted only a week or so before someone else topped that fish-in another part of the state.my peronal best is a 21 pounder out of cattaraugus creek.
