CRANKSTER Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Before I got married I used to enjoy me some stripper fishing once in a while. Lmao Quote
Super User slonezp Posted November 27, 2011 Super User Posted November 27, 2011 this may not constitute as a "weirdest catch" but most definately my top "weirdest sight"...rode my 4wheeler to a interstate pond by my house, about 2 miles away...i pull up where i usually park, look through the woods by the bank and see a guy in what looks like a diaper but i think it was just undies (just undies, no shirt socks pants anything), smoking a cig talking to someone fully clothed like nothing was "odd"...lets just say i was creeped out didnt fish that day I thought that's just a regular day in Loozy Quote
Colton Neal Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 I've landed a lunker trashbag, and also a clam. Quote
dcorp Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 I was fishing in the spill way at Rodman Dam a two or three years ago fishing for Strippers when they come up there and slay the big shad. I stuck something that was BIG and powerful it felt like a 35-40# stripper and the current at the spill way is really fast and strong so I was in the fight about 25 minutes and this thing just didnt stop it make 40-50 yard runs with (Daiwa pluton and 50# braid) and ide slowly bring it back and then bam run again... after about 45-50 minutes I landed it and it was a 8X10 foot piece of window screen... You couldnt believe how it was fighting I mean it fought just like a large stripper pulling line off on big unstoppable runs and then at times diving... That current rolling pulling it down deeper and deeper and then it grabbing the running current when I would get it up some and then back to diving it was unreal how much it felt like a fish... when it would shake and turn in the current it felt like head shaking.. I had about 10 boats and every one on the dam watching me and cheering me on lol as they thought I had a huge stripper just like I did it was something I will never forget and a few of my bass tourney buddies was out there sticking some strippers during the run and they still to this day rib me anytime we have a tourney at rodman about it. Thats the funniest thing I have heard all day... maybe all week. Quote

SMITTY0045 Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 I pulled in a couch cushion once. It looked like it was from patio furniture Quote
aquaholic Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 couple chairs and some clams. I knew a guy who was swimming in the river and found a waded up roll of carpet. You can guess what he found inside. Quote
BuffaloBass716 Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 A few snapping turtles, some rusty old lures, and a sealed plastic bag full of some liquid (did no open it). Quote

MitchTBF Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 When I was a kid I reeled in what I thought was a fish skull and brought it home. Showed it to my fisherman Uncle a few months later and he pointed out that it was actually a section of an animal's vertebral column. Looked to be from a large dog or something. Quote
bassmaster99 Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Didn't quite reel it in but a huge red tail hawk flew down and picked up my bronzeye a little while a go. Fought good for a few seconds. Quote
CPBassFishing Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I caught a bucket with a dead snake in it today! I snagged it on my shaky head and it was full of mud. Dumped the mud out and a 3 foot snake fell out! Quote

whiteghost Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Last year I snagged an old cell phone, any thing is possible. Quote
BillinDurham Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 A Hellbender on the Allegheny River. A Hellbender is the largest North American salamander and is one weird, mean looking creature. Lives underwater and will eat bait. Quote
Super User geo g Posted December 3, 2013 Super User Posted December 3, 2013 I once caught a team Diawa rod and reel with a 5 lb bass still attached in 20ft of water. Looked like the combo was in the water for days. Fish was in good shape and released safe. It was like hitting the lottery. Quote
