A Maryland angler pulled in the wrong catch while fishing — but it earned him a state record, wildlife officials said.

Thomas Over Jr. decided to set up along the lower Susquehanna River on Jan. 6 to go jigging for yellow perch, according to a Jan. 16 Maryland Department of Natural Resources news release. The Darlington resident waited patiently to hook something, and when he finally felt a “thump,” he got to work, he told the department.
 

He started pulling in the catch, thinking he snagged a “doubleheader of jumbo yellow perch” with his tandem perch rig, which has more than one fly, Over told officials.
