[AstroPy] astroquery.vizier.Vizier.get_catalogs doesn't fetch more than 50 rows

[Samuel Harrold]

Hello,

I'm having trouble downloading all rows from a VizieR table using
astroquery: I have a table with more than 50 rows with the "-out.max"
keyword set to greater than 50, but astroquery returns only 50 rows. I've
included terminal output below. (Also, astroquery warns that I'm using an
old version of astropy, but both are up-to-date.)

Am I using the function correctly? Is there a workaround?

Thanks for any help!
