Poor Fish

FISH STORY FROM WICHITA EAGLE NEWSPAPER

This was a pretty interesting story from The Sunday Wichita EagleNewspaper a couple of weeks ago. A resident in the area saw a ballbouncing around in the pond and when he went to investigate, it was aflathead catfish who had obviously tried to swallow a child'sbasketball which got 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. Theresident tried numerous times to get the ball out but wasunsuccessful. He finally had his wife cut the ball in order to deflatethe ball and release the catfish.
