Fish Coughs Up a Gold Watch

Jun 15th 2009

Missing a gold watch? We know a fish who can help.

Last week, two men at Port Allen beach found a watch in the mouth of a 10-inch reef fish on the coast of Kauai, Hawaii.

Curt Carish and his friend noticed that the nenue fish was swimming extremely close to the shore during their picnic on the beach.

When they poked the fish with a bamboo stick, they saw its unusually large stomach sticking out. They then put the fish into a cooler where it coughed up a gold watch.

Amazingly, the ticking gold watch kept the correct time. We certainly know the jewelry wasn't artiFISHial.
