It’s official: A 15-year-old girl who caught a 101.11-pound blue catfish has become the new Ohio state record holder for the species.

"I started crying," teen Jaylynn Parker told Fox News Digital. "My mom started crying, too. We're just super excited."

"I'm very proud of myself that I did that," she added.

"I still haven't fully comprehended that I'm now the state record holder."

Parker of New Richmond caught the blue catfish on April 7 on Twelve Mile Creek, a tributary of the Ohio River.
