Caught Wet-handed
On July 9, 2012, Clark poached the 13lb 13oz fish from the public aquarium and entered the fish into the Bailiwick Bass Club competition to claim the top prize of £800 (~$1300 USD).
Authorities matched the distinctive scars on the bass to confirm that the winning fish was the same fish that was reported missing earlier the same day. The bass also exhibited no hook damage, which raised eyebrows at the fishing competition.
Earlier this year, Clark pled guilty to false representation. Last week, he admitted to the piscine theft and is now awaiting sentencing.
Stupid criminals make for great (big fish) tales.
