Maron76 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I heard this on the radio this morning and laughed my arse off. They said the guy fishing (at night) thought he hooked a really big fish. Instead of reeling in what he thought was a trophy, he discovered that he had snagged a backpack. Attached to this backpack was an illegal immigrant wearing a Speedo. Apparently the guy was trying to swim across the river under the cloak of darkness. The fisherman called the authorities and took the man to shore where he was arrested. Good thing they didn't practice catch and release! Lol, sorry I couldn't resist. Link to article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawnbc Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Either the fisher had a powerful reeling or the illegal immigrant didn't have powerful legs and arms to swim! Jeez! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
