Surely any world record is somewhat opportunistic.
While it may be true that few others will have the chance to catch such a fish, that would also be true of people who get the land speed record, or the longest balloon flight record.
Equally, it would be a shame to think that one day all fishing records would be based on the capacity of a fisher versus the capacity of a scientist to create a fish big enough that it could not be caught by a non-genetically modified human.
