This week's trawl through the fishy archives reveals a man who had a rather lucky find...
A Chinese man found £200 in the belly of a rotten fish.
Mr Wang, of Huichun city, said that his dog had come across the fish which had been thrown out in the rubbish. He said: "I lifted the fish, and saw it was already rotting. But then a package wrapped in oily paper dropped out.
"I used a stick to poke the package to make sure it wasn’t a prank or something," Wang explained. "But then I saw that there was money inside. I couldn't believe it."
The money came to the equivalent of almost £200.
"I think the fish must have been given to someone as a present. But I guess they didn’t know about the money," he added.
Wang said he would return the money if anyone could correctly identify the colour and other characteristics of the package.
