A Tennessee boat merchant is willing to pay $ 100,000 to anyone who catches a specially marked fish.

Watson's Marine in Bluff City said the tagged smallmouth bass will be released into South Holston Lake at 12:01 pm on June 12, while anglers will have until 11:59 pm on June 13 to catch fish. Whoever catches a perch nicknamed "Old Walter 2.0" by a dealer will receive a prize of $ 100,000, the company said.

Registration for participation is not required and any bait can be used, but in order to receive a prize, the fish must be caught with a fishing rod and a reel.
