Angler Raphael Biagini (seen below) pulled in a 30lb gold fish in France.

While this would be an amazing story if it were true, it unfortunately is not. The image below is legit, however the fish isn't every kids favorite gold fish. It's actually a orange koi carp, which are quite common in France.

Raphael was shocked when it caught the fish, but being a long time fisherman he let the carp go just after snapping the photo.

I can help but imagine the size of the fishbowl needed to store the fish in if it were indeed a goldfish.
