Chinese angler dragged to his death into river by half-ton fish after bragging to a friend about his 'big catch'.

A giant fish got its own back on an angler when it dragged him to his death after he hooked it in southern China. The fish, believed to be a giant sturgeon, pulled Huang Wu, 58, into the water when he tried to retrieve his fishing rod, say witnesses. 'One minute he was chatting to us about what a big fish he had, the next it was the fish that had him,' said Chen Wan who was fishing alongside him in Nanning.Huang was pulled more than 150ft out into the river before he disappeared under the water. Rescuers found his body washed up on a bank later.
