Lukashenka said he had caught a 57-kilogram sheatfish

The Belarusian ruler told that he managed to catch three sheatfish in the Prypiac river.

“I personally pulled out a sheatfish of 57 kilograms. I caught three sheatfish - 57, 24 and 7 kilograms”, - Lukashenka noted at a meeting on the improvement of fishing and hunting regulations, Interfax reports.

Reacting to the ruler’s saying about the 57-kilogram sheatfish, a vice-Prime Minister Mikhail Rusy said: “Of my height”. “Not your weight, though”, - Lukashenka noted.

“I am not really a fisherman, nor a hunter, but I recollect my childhood sometimes. I take a shoot…”, - the Belarusian ruler confessed. According to him, very recently there “was no fish in Prypiac”. “We have put things in order there. Now you put a finger in the water, and a fish catches it at once”, - Lukashenka claimed.

We would remind that it was Vladimir Putin who recently bragged about his catch. The pike, which, according to him, he managed to catch when fishing at Tyva, weighed over 20 kilograms. Bloggers and fisherman doubted not only the record size of the fish, but the very fact the fishing actually took place.
