Updated | By East Coast Breakfast
This 19-year-old teenager has caught the legendary 'Pig Nose' monster fish.
It's a monster!
A legendary creature has finally been caught swimming Fraser River in British Columbia. The white sturgeon named Pig Nose weighing at 295kg was caught by 19-year-old Nick McCabe who's become a local hero.
It took the teenager 2 hours to reel in the massive fish. It was worth the effort as they took pictures with the legendary monster before sending back into the water.
"He damaged his nose about 40 years ago and when it healed it looked like a pig nose. He’s been the talk of fishing and sporting goods shops for years.
As the legend lives on, you’d be in a sporting goods shop and you’d hear: “My buddy was sure he had Pig Nose on the line.” says Jeff Grimolfson who works with McCabe at fishing tour company River Monster Adventures as reported by Unilad.co.uk
Simply incredible!
