Their best friend told them on his deathbed that he wanted them to use his ashes as fish bait. Whoa!
They did and the results are amazing! It looks like their friend was looking down from above.
Paul Fairbrass and Cliff Dale, both 65, were supposed to go on a trip with their best friend Ron Hopper but he tragically died of cancer.
So, the two best anglers decided the best way to honour their late fisherman friend was to turn his ashes into bait for a "legendary catch".
He said if he couldn't go to Thailand himself then his two friends should take his ashes to the Far East with them and infuse them with a special bait mix to make "bollies". While his widow Judith scattered half of his ashes on a beach in Grenada, the two best friends were given responsibility for the other half.
The unusual blended bait was so powerful it even helped the two snare a whopping 12stone (180 lbs) Siamese carp - one of the biggest carp fish ever caught in the world.
"We caught some smaller fish with it but didn't think we would get a big one. Ron must have been looking out for us."
“It seemed like it was destiny we would use Ronnie to catch one of the biggest fish in the lake.
“It’s what he would have wanted.”
If you're a fisherman, it's definitely what you would want!!
