I feel like most of the community considers Kench a frog and not a catfish
Even though the reverse is supposed to be true.

I consider him a Demon.
Who looks like a catfish.
Kinda wanna see him as other forms of fish, wearing different attire suited for other parts of Runeterra. Like a Salmon in Freljord clothing.
That would be a fun skin. Volibear might be tempted to eat him, though.

the real tahm kench
I know he's a catfish cause of a folk tale i remember hearing once of a catfish that told a grasshopper that he would escort him across the river by carrying him in his mouth. In the end it was a trick and the catfish either eats the grasshopper, or the grasshopper tricks the catfish to let him go. Either way, I belive
is based on the catfish from that story.
Just like they consider Fizz to be a fish, and not a cephalopod.
Fizz is the spawn of Satan.
So he IS related to Yordles 
More like Final Boss Gromp
He just straight up is clearly a frog. It doesn't matter what Riot says. He has a stretchy tongue. He has fucking arms and legs.
But he also has a fish-tail and whiskers....
fizz isn't a fish either, it is a axototl satanic being.
To be fair, he more than anything else is sort of a mix up of both..
I have never seen a catfish with a tongue like that xD
I sarcastically call him a frog to my friend.
He gets mad at me.
he's based on a catfish
I think they made him a bit frog-like on purpose,because frogs are associated with greed and gluttony.
I thought he was a frog with a moustache
It's most likely because there's no catfish emote on Twitch. Unbench the Kench OSfrog
Now we are talking about the real problems.
If he didn't flash his wonderful row of sharp teeth all the time, I suppose I would.
I catch a lot of catfish and I can tell you they don't have sharp teeth. They have some tiny little bony ridges along the inside of their mouth to prevent food from going back out but it's nothing that would do more than give you minor scrapes. Of course frogs don't have teeth either so....
It didn't help that when he was first released (and to this day when he's picked) everyone was spamming OSFrog in Twitch chat during LCS/MSI.
anyone whos seen both in real life would say he obviosly looks mmore catfishy
He looks like a mix between a frog, a salamander and a catfish
