hunterjoe84 Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 Just recently I caught a shovel in fast moving water at a lock. It put up one heck of a fight!!! had no idea what it was. It was moving back and fourth in the current and stripping some line. Finally was able to land it. I have also caught a rock while perch fishing. The rock had a small hole in it and the hook went right in it and pulled it to the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrb2007 Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 I caught a nice Estwing hammer while ice fishing on Lake Simcoe a few years back. Turns out it was MY hammer I had accidently dropped down the hole 2 weeks prior. lol She really put up a fight coming up from 100FOW......not many head shakes though. Still using it to this day.

That is strange. I once caught a knot eel. It is an eel and when it gets into the boat it ties itself into a knot. True story. Caught it ogg noosa in Australia. I also caught a lobster or a big crayfish in a river . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jer Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 Caught and released a seagull once. A couple years ago I had an osprey take a large topwater plug. I tried to get the bird close enough to untangle its feet, but it would have nothing to do with that. Ended up having to cut the line as close as I dared. I really hope he was able to untangle that big Bagley bait eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
