True story.

Years ago, I caught and tagged a Goliath, but on the charter trip,
there was a Jewish guy who actually got upset when I called it a
Jewfish.

I had to explain it to him - it was actually called a jewfish.


Not surprisingly (since I'm not much of a fisherman), I hadn't heard of
it before, so I Googled it:

World record 680lbs.? Now that's a big fish!
