    "Yes" When he caught the third fish it was a lot bigger than the other two. The fisherman would not give him any of the three salmon. "Very well" said the man it is the last salmon that ever again will be caught on that river "How is that said" the man. Wait until you see" said the man. It was Saint Patrick he refused for the fish. And there was never a fish caught on that river again.
