Story PictureFishermen are known for their tall tales, but today two sea faring men should have no problem proving that they caught a whopper. This morning, Shelton Broaster and Wilfred Flowers hooked a three hundred pound Goliath Grouper off Moho Caye. News Five caught up with the man who did not let the big one get away.
