Northland teen lands whopper of a fish

Maddy Herlihy struggles with his prized catch Maddy Herlihy struggles with his prized catch

A 14-year-old Northland boy is waiting for confirmation that he has broken a world record after landing an enormous kingfish off White Island.

Maddy Herlihy's prized catch was the result of an all-night fishing effort in the eastern Bay of Plenty.

After battling for twenty minutes, the fish was hauled in.

Maddy comes from a fishing family, with he and his two sisters part of a junior team and compete for the Whakatane Sportfishing Club.

Last year the pair caught a record-sized trevally and are hoping their latest catch will set an official record as well.

The kingfish weighs 40.26kg - much bigger than the standing world record of 34kg.

The process to ratify the weight of their catch could take several months, but in the meantime the family will be dining on the fish.

An Australian woman has been charged with murder after allegedly

setting her husband's genitals on fire because she thought he was having an affair.

Prosecutors told the Adelaide Magistrates Court that 44-year-old Rajini

Narayan confessed to neighbours that she set her husband on fire on

December 8, 2008, after she saw him hug another woman.

Her 47-year-old husband, Satish Narayan, died from his injuries last

week. "I just wanted to burn his penis so it belongs to me and no one else," she was quoted as saying.

All I have to say it was Adelaide :whistle:
