Not enough breading apparently......
Idaho fisherman finds finger in belly of a fish

A fisherman found a finger in the belly of a trout caught in a remote northern Idaho lake. And detectives located the owner, who delivered a surprising message. Despite their hard detective work, Haans Galassi said he did not want to be reunited with his severed digit.

"At first the sheriff asked me if I wanted it back, and I was thinking 'um, no!" Galassi, 31, said.

The reunion may bring back too much pain for Galassi , who is getting over the accident two months ago on an Idaho lake.
Galassi was wakeboarding on Priest Lake in July while holding on to a rope attached to a speed boat. Then things went terribly wrong. He noticed too much slack in the rope, tried to correct it and the rope wrapped around his left hand, he said.
"It pulled me over in the water and dragged me for a few feet before it broke me free," Galassi said. "I didn't feel pain at first, just numbness and I pulled my hand out of water and it was bad news. I look and see I'm missing all four fingers at that point."

Galassi was rushed to the hospital and has been trying to get by without his missing fingers. He learned that he can still grip and grab items such as a steering wheel with his affected hand

It's a little late for reattachment, but it would be a nice as a conversation piece on the mantel in a jar of alcohol.

And then when anyone asks him to lend a hand, he could say No, but I'll lend you PART of one...

I wonder if his reluctance is because it was the middle finger? With the other three still missing it could provoke some severe misunderstandings

If one were trying to find reasons to be repulsed by alcohol, I suppose. For those with a healthier attitude on the subject that sounds little nasty.
