At an artificial lake in Thailand, several of the world's largest and rarest freshwater fish lurk near anglers baited hooks - and some conservationists couldn't be happier.

Great idea. $100 isn't bad. All those species in on pond you wouldn't want to eat those fish any way taste like poop I bet.

Go for the fish stay for the women.

They are illegal to fish for in some areas in the Amazon but not all also they got fish farms for the arapaima. Liveaquaria.com actually sells them for the home aquaria.

Seems like fishing in a stocked pond would tank the thrill out of catching a rare fish, guess not though if people will pay $100.

Think I should move somewhere warm, build a pond, throw in some cool fish and retire.

At the end of the video they said that every fish has to be put back in the lake.

This sounds great but I hope they don't keep the fish out of the water for too long!
