Two men were fishing in the Mississippi River over the weekend, and you can say it was a wildly successful day. It was actually TOO good of a day for the fishermen. They caught so many catfish their boat boat sank!

The fisherman say they had around 4,000 lbs of catfish! What should have been an amazing and profitable day for the two quickly turned tragic as the boat started to sink into the Mississippi. Luckily, a couple of fellow fisherman happened to roll up on the guys right as the boat went completely under water.
