A woman who had long given up finding her nose stud after losing it in the waters while kneeboarding, got the surprise of her life after it turned up inside a fish caught by her fiance.

However, to her surprise, it turned up three days later in one of the fishes caught by her fiance, Darren Triffett. Brittain said Triffett and his friend Tim Hall went fishing in almost the same area where the stud was lost. When they were cutting off one flathead, they found the tiny nail-like object inside.
