A 60-year-old man fought to catch a 1.17-m long fish for two hours until it finally gave up on Wednesday.

The man was fishing in a river in Changchun, Jilin province, when he caught a big one, which wouldn't give up without a good long fight.

It took him two hours and a lot of help from other fishermen to haul the 17 kg fish ashore.

The man sold the fish for 500 yuan ($73).
