The man secured a massive carp.
Satisfied with his catch, he made ready to fry the fish when he got home. He disassembled and cleaned it.
However, he was really scared. In the fish, he found a human finger.
His wife was horrified and he was confused.
How did a human finger end up inside the carp?
The Daily Mail claims that the fisherman called a friend to describe what had happened, which provided the solution to the conundrum.
His acquaintance told him about a TV news story about a man who had an accident on the same lake and lost four fingers.
