Kentucky fisherman hooks 20lbs 'goldfish' using nothing but a biscuit for bait

Fishermen are known for telling tall tales - but one avid angler from Kentucky insists he caught a massive pet goldfish - and and he has the picture to prove it. This is Hunter Anderson, who said he landed the 20lbs former-pet using nothing but a biscuit while fishing at a private pond in Boyle County at the weekend.

It is not known for certain whether the fish Anderson hooked was a former pet, but goldfish have been known to survive for years in the wild and grow to large sizes.
