A TRUE FISH STORY...

�

� �

A resident in the area saw a ball bouncing around kind�of strangely in a nearby pond and went to investigate.�
�
It turned out to be a flathead catfish who had obviously�tried to swallow a child's basketball which became stuck in its mouth!!�

The fish was totally exhausted from trying to dive,�but unable to because the ball would always bring him�back up to the surface.

The resident tried numerous times to�get the ball out, but was unsuccessful. He finally had his��
wife cut the ball in order to deflate it and release the�hungry catfish.
You probably wouldn't have believed this,�

if you hadn't seen the following pictures...�
