“He told his wife that he could feel in his bones that he was going to catch a special fish that day,” Stuart Gillham, owner of the fishing resort in Krabi where Williams was staying, told British newspaper Metro.
The monster fish, which weighs 134 pounds and 7 ounces, reportedly took 25 minutes to reel in.
According to The London Times, the previous record was held by Terry Mather, who caught a 114-pound Siamese carp. The International Game Fish Association will need to confirm the new world record for largest carp.
Not bad for a 56th birthday present.
