If not that this piece of news contained names of real places and people, I would have thought it impossible. How could a fisherman be afraid of a fish he himself has caught? After all, is he not used to the trade? Even if the fish was as big as the whole world, it shouldn't be much of a big deal to him.

However, my view on this, is that there is a spiritual side to it. I don't think the fish was an ordinary fish. Now, before you begin to brand me 'superstitious', 'archaic' or whatever, we should be careful not to write off the existence of such things as Mammy Water, Queen of the Coast, etc. After all, are these phrases not white man's language? If it exists in their language, it exists in their consciousness also. Well, i'm not also saying by this, that whatever the white man says is true is true. What I am saying instead is that we learnt the attitude of waving things aside as superstitious from the white man and now we can't claim to be more Catholic than the Pope. I expect your views any way. Read the original news here: http://234breakingnews..com/2013/10/the-fish-was-so-big-fisherman-was.html
