…Giant Catfish.

Old news… but still incredible!

"Krosno Odrzańskie| A pair of Polish fisherman made an amazing discovery when they opened the belly of the 410 pound catfish they had just caught in the Oder river. The stomach of the monstrous fish contained fragments of human bones, as well as German military artifacts dating back to the Second World War.

Alfons Brzozowski and Marek Zdanowicz were fishing near the Oder's confluence with the Bóbr river on April 6, when they made an astonishing catch: a gigantic Wels catfish, measuring 12 feet (3.68 meters) and weighting 413 pounds (187.5 kg).

Their celebration was rapidly transformed into interrogation, and then disgust, when they opened the animal's belly. Among a large quantity of half-digested fish, they discovered an old metal insignia dating back to Nazi Germany, as well dozens of human bone fragments…"

Wow, that is a big fish!

So, I guess those stories from "River Monsters" (TV show) do have a bit of truth to them.

Of course, I probably shouldn't be surprised, since I've seen bass that a whole metal stringer of trout that were almost as big as they were. That was pretty amazing too.

I don't know whose head it was but he wasn't wearing that badge. It's a poor fake. Also, if it had been in a fish's stomach for 70 years it would have been dissolved by the acid (and so would the bones).
Big fish though.

World news daily report is a satirical / fictional news site.

Yep, now I've seen some of the other stories I can tell.

We're going to need a bigger boat…and bigger filet knife, too.

When it comes to catching fish, nothing beats the German light infantry.

Maybe… this was a secret weapon from the Allied?
