a fish story

[Tim_T]

A man was fishing. He began his outing with a 25lb Kingfish on the first
drop and a 20 lb Red snapper on the second. On the third drop he had just
scored his first ever Cubera when his cell phone rang. It was a
doctor notifying him that his wife had just been in a terrible accident
and was in critical condition in ICU. The man told the doctor to inform
his wife where he was and that he'd be there as soon as possible. As he
hung up he realized he was leaving, what was shaping up to be, his best
ever fishing trip. He decided to get in a couple of more drifts before
heading to the hospital.

He ended up catching several personal bests, limited out on three
species and all in all, had his best days fishing by far. He was
jubilant.... Then he remembered his wife. Feeling guilty he dashed to
the hospital. He saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about his
wife's condition.

The doctor glared at him and shouted, "You went ahead and kept fishing
didn't you! I hope you're proud of yourself! While you were out for the
past four hours enjoying yourself on the ocean, your wife has been
languishing in the ICU! It's just as well you went ahead and finished
the fishing because it will be more than likely your last! For the rest
of her life she will require round the clock care and you'll be her care
giver!"

The man was feeling so guilty he broke down and sobbed.

The doctor snickered and said, "Just screwing with you. She's dead.
What'd you catch?"
