If there was ever a time give the classic Jaws line of "We're gonna need a bigger boat"...this is that time!

Pete Peeters, former Philadelphia Flyers goalie and Vezina Trophy winner in 1983, caught an absolute beast of a sturgeon recently...and it may be a world record!

The fish was measured at 890 pounds, 11 feet long, with a girth of 4-and-a-half feet!   Furthermore, they estimated that the sturgeon is at least 100 years old!

What a catch!   Check this bad boy out!   And congrats, Pete!
