Three 2 lb Spanish Mackeral barely digested in a 68 lb cobia.
 
A chippy near us was closed down when someone found a human finger in the fish and chips they bought. The HSE and Police closed them down whilst they investigated.

It turns out it was only batter in the shape of a finger!

Not good for business though!

Please feel free to move this post to things 'nearly' found in a (or next to) fishes stomach ;-)
 
I'm going to stretch the question and tell about the thing I almost found in a fish's stomach.

In North Carolina back in the early 70s, I shot a flounder that weighed about ten pounds. As I grabbed it, it opened its mouth and a Norfolk spot, a small bait fish in the croaker family, swam out, paused, and then hauled ass.

I guess the flounder must have eaten that spot right before I came along, and I was just in time to rescue it.
 
Scary: Fluorescent green squidgy thing in a Pollack (definately organic)

Random: Leaves, twigs and stones in a trout.
 
Somebody told me once about going fishing for black bream on a charter boat - a couple of fishermen went seasick and spewed overboard their dinner - consisting of bits of meat and veg.
At the end of the day when gutting their haul - the lads were confronted with their dinner - for the third time!
 
I didn't find it but the three pound 'divers' lead weight in the world record largemouth bass and the story that goes with it has to be the "wierdest".

From a faulty old man's memory....... they allowed the weight because it had been in the fish for a long time.
