A guy who lives at Lake Conroe (50 miles north of Houston ) saw a ball bouncing around. Kind of strange thing to see in the middle of a lake so he went to investigate.


It turned out to be a flathead catfish that had
apparently 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.

I had to check this out because my daughter lives in Conroe. Right fish, wrong lake.
