Nick said: "When I heard that there were a lot of big carp in this lake, I wanted to see it with my own eyes. It took me two days north of fishing rod but I only caught a few common carp. , suddenly I saw a big orange fish swimming at the top of the lake that had bitten me: At first I thought it was a fat carp, but looking closely, it was a goldfish like ornamental goldfish. people still raise ".

"He was swimming very well. Perhaps because the lake had a rich food source, it developed very well. Before that I had joked that if I caught a big fish I would name Billy, so the goldfish now will own this name, " Nick said.

The ornamental goldfish are often kept in conventional aquariums. However, according to Nick, the fish he caught could still continue to grow, so he didn't want to keep the fish and release it to the lake so it could be naturally developed.
