Loved that last line ' he is reviewing the idea of fishing alone'

Seems the crocodiles have worked out how to crack open a new food source
Scary, 'cos they are unlikely to unlearn how to do it now.

cheers,

That's one big fish, especially compared to what I used to catch

Nice story but it bugs me when people remove fish like this from a river, and (seemingly) have no intentions of eating it. They remove something spetacular and let it die so nobody else can see it/catch it!

Big fish like that scare me.

I met a guy who went fishing in the same area and I asked what he did with the fish afterwards. He told me that the local villagers got them. If they didn't have them then they were sold in the local markets so nothing went to waste

ah, so its true - there is always a bigger fish....

if he has family, hope he's a bit more careful in future - fair play to him (if thats your thing) for catching it, but doing that without knowing the dangers isn't the best long term policy...
