Florida fisherman hooks Sidewinder
A commercial fisherman in Florida reeled in a AIM-9 missile in the Gulf of Mexico and kept it on his boat for a week while he continues fishing.

Local authorities initially thought that the missile was live but later the USAF assured that it was safe.

The missile was fired on Aug. 16, 2004 from a F-15 that was part of the 390th Fighter Squadron.
