ELEELE, Hawaii - Hawaii resident Curt Carish boasts a timely fish tale - a 25-centimetre reef fish he caught by hand in shallow water coughed up a ticking gold watch.
Carish says he was enjoying a picnic Wednesday on Port Allen beach when he saw the nenue fish awkwardly swimming close to shore.
He says a friend gave him a bamboo stick and told him to get the fish.
So he jumped into the waist-high water and hit the nenue until it went limp.
He noticed the fish had an abnormally large belly as he tossed it into a cooler.
A friend opened the cooler later to discover a gold watch next to the fish's mouth.
Carish says the watch was ticking and keeping correct time.
