Colorado authorities recently announced that they've recovered massive invasive fish from a local pond – all thanks to a local fishing enthusiast.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) published a press release about the discovery on Monday. Officials explained that an angler tipped them off to the presence of bighead carp in Jack B. Tomlinson Park in Arvada, Colorado, last week.
