A fisherman has wowed fellow anglers around the world after he managed to catch a 70lb goldfish while fishing in Champagne, France.
Andy Hackett, 42, was at Blue Water Lakes when he reeled in the giant orange fish, which many believe could be the world’s largest.
Hackett, a Worcestershire-based company director, nicknamed his catch The Carrot, which he had plucked from one of the world’s premier carp fisheries. He said: “I always knew The Carrot was in there but never thought I would catch it.”
