Good news, “Moby Dick” fans: A real-life gargantuan white fish is alive and well, and eluding fisherman everywhere — for the most part.

A massive 700-pound, 10-foot-long, 5-foot-wide sturgeon — affectionately known as “Pig Nose” — has been caught for the second time in two years in the Fraser River, the longest waterway British Columbia, Canada. Better yet, he was caught by the same fisherman.
 

In August 2016, after a two-hour struggle, then 19-year-old River Monster Adventures guide Nick McCabe captured the legendary fish for the first time in decades, reports Global News. A year later, on Sept. 28, the two met again. This time, McCabe knew what he was getting into.

With the help of his Texan clients, the crew wrestled Pig Nose for about an hour before they could catch him.
