There's nothing more odd than the fishy tale of Hannibal the 15lb wels catfish who was plucked from the murky waters of Shillinglee Lake, north of Petworth.
He was captured during a stock take by the Environment Agency but officers almost got their fish count wrong after the hungry monster spat out a mixture of roach and bream.
Hannibal's greedy guzzling has been put to an end as he has been rehomed at the Sealife Centre in Brighton, where his size is just a drop in the ocean compared to some of the sharks there.
