How are you supposed to catch a Ball Cutter fish if you don't dandle the bait?

FTFA:
This is the ferocious 'Ball Cutter' fish which has killed two men by biting off their testicles. A British angler has told how he snared a predator known to feast on the testicles of men. Jeremy Wade, 53, spent weeks fishing in remote Papua New Guinea after locals told him how a mysterious beast was castrating young men in the area's waters. He finally caught the perpetrator: the Pacu fish, known locally as The Ball Cutter. Jeremy wrestled the
40lb monster
on the floor of his boat and opened its snapping jaws with his bare hands to discover a set of human-like teeth. The Ball Cutter boasts an impressive set of gnashers, which tear off the testicles of unwitting anglers and swimmers, leaving them to bleed to death. Jeremy, from Bath, Somerset, told how he reeled in The Ball Cutter as part of his new series of River Monsters, aired on ITV next week.

You stupid MFers ... Look at the mouth of the fish compared to the finger holding it's mouth open ... that thing is as a big as a 3 pound Tuna. Grow a pair, because this fish isn't going to be stealing any of yours ...

-They didn't say THAT was the fish in question, just an example of the teeth.
"Jeremy wrestled the 40lb monster on the floor of his boat and opened its snapping jaws with his bare hands to discover a set of human-like teeth"
Yes, a 40 lb fish is big enough to bite your balls off. Note I say
yours
, he couldn't handle mine...

As I recall, he used ham. Which was interesting because Pacu are *supposed* to be vegetarian.

Anyone know if the size of the Pacu above would be around the 40lb range, like in the article?
Just curious.

Yeah, I used to have a couple, too. Fed them dry cat food, as fish food was just too expensive. They didn't seem to mind...

Divine Providence in its tender mercies has provided lavishly for all of its creatures.
Er, some of them have
extremely
specialized diets.
Best not to think about what kind of sick fark Divine Providence must be. I'm with King Alphonso X of Spain, who when his royal astronomers explained the Ptolemaic system of celestial mechanics to him replied that if he had been present at the Creation, he might have had some useful advice to give the Creator.

I ate this fish when I visited my grandsons in Papua, Indonesia. They call it "ikan gigi" (tooth fish). It is delicious, and you can use its bones as toothpicks.

You can uncross your legs, guys. Total myth there. Pacus eat fruit. I suppose theoretically they could confuse a guys love sacks for a couple of wrinkly dried fruit, but... um... ok, go ahead and recross your legs.
