Had a honkin big Perch latch onto a rattlin rap once while fishing for pike, but I guess that wasn't too strange. By far the weirdest is not once but twice nhow I have seen my roomie hook into a big Muskie while we were fishing for Bass.
First time was on a 6" Senko. Got it in the corner of the mouth then ran under a log or something under water. He fought the thing for a good long while, the whole time rubbing his line back and forth across said log. Just when he was about to give up the fish came ouy and after a few mins he landed it. Think it measured out to 41".
The Second was while casting tubes for smallies in a river. Again, corner of the mouth, and the fish was landed.
Lucky sot...
