Pike ate my dropshot

[oates]

Hooked in to a pike the other day, as I reeled it in, I noticed it had the dropshot (weight) in its mouth, not the worm (btw - never caught anything except bas on dropshot). When it got close to me it spat it out. Anyone had that happen before?

I caught a 40incher a few weeks ago that had nothing but the leader in it's mouth

Years ago I had a good sized Muskie shoot right past the lure I was trolling and hit the prop on the electric motor I was using to quietly troll with. Probably my fault, I put strips of reflective tape on the prop. I have heard of bass hitting the weight and bead on a carolina rig.
