An Irish priest (牧师) loved going fishing. It was his favourite hobby. However, the weather was so bad this year that he didn't have a chance to go fishing.
It was very strange that the weather was good every Sunday. But Sunday was the day when he had to go to work. The coming Sunday was good again according the weather report, so he called another priest and told him that he lost his voice and was in bed with the fever. He asked him to take over his work.
The priest drove fifty miles to a river so that no one would find him. An angel in Heaven was keeping watch and saw what the priest was doing. He reported it to God. He thought God would do something about it.
With the first throw of the line, a huge fish bit down the fish food. For over an hour the priest was busy running up and down the river bank to fight the fish. In the end, helandedthe large size fish. It was a world record—a salmon (鲑鱼).
The angel did not know what was happening and asked God, "Why did you let him catch that huge fish? I thought you were going to teach him a lesson." God replied, "I did. Who do you think he's going to tell?"
