A man made a surprising catch in a Virginia river: a golden largemouth bass considered to be "extremely rare" by the state's wildlife department.

The Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (DWR) said in a news release that Jacob Moore reeled in the largemouth bass from the James River near Chippokes State Park. Moore, who works as a arborist, said in a statement that he was practicing for a fishing tournament when he reeled in the special fish.
