A guy who lives at Round Lake, Sask.

(50 miles South of Yorkton) saw a ball bouncing

around kind of strangely in the lake and went to

investigate.

It turned out to be a flathead catfish who had

obviously tried to swallow a 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 guy 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...

whoa! that is a huge fish!!!!!

Oh look.....sushi!

(Okay that was lame sorry)

The joke around here is, how'd you like a pedicure from that?


I can tell you I wouldn't be wading in the lake anytime soon. I'd feel rather foolish running from a fish, but if I saw that I would be off like a shot.
