CJ From Dinwiddie,VA Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 i bass fish 95% of the time but i went out with a buddy of mine and my stepdad in the mobjack bay then ran to the bridge tunnel. we were catchin shark and flounder and tons of sea bass. well, i cast a hunk of meat back in the water after catchin a shark. this GIANT seagull. alot bigger than ive seen, grabs it and takes off. tryin to ****** meat out of its mouth ''cuz i saw hook wasnt in mouth'' it did a spin thing and was hooked through the bottom beak area. it finally got tired. my buddy took line i had on gloves. grabbed feet and stepdad held wings closed. got the hook out and let the bird go. no serious harm done i dont think. just a sore mought for a few days Quote
noogai13 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 nothing much, just a seagull off the ocean isle beach pier in Ocean Isle, North carolina Quote
Nick- Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Condems are quite common out of the Milwaukee Harbor. Disgusting! Quote
lavbasser Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Caught this snapper on a Norman Thin N last Fall. Quote
lavbasser Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Here is another one from a few years ago.... Quote
endless Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Here is another one from a few years ago.... Did you get your lure back? Luckily for me the two I caught one was on minnow and other on wacky. So no loss there.By the way great pic. 1 Quote
lavbasser Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 No, I lost the Chatterbait. I had to cut the line. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 24, 2011 Global Moderator Posted February 24, 2011 Here is another one from a few years ago.... I had one eat a jerkbait a few years ago. Hit it on the pause just like a bass. I got my bait back and he ate his last jerkbait . Quote
USMCAngler89 Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 I was doing some fishing on the Nuese River and pulled in 25 ft garden hose with a spray nozzle still attached Quote
GrizzerGreen Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 A "I <3 NYC" t-shirt The weirdest part was that I was fishing in Michigan... It made great use after I tore it up for rags. Quote
Midnight Splash Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 2 Seagulls and a few Mallards. One Mallard this year broke off after a short fight in the air. He took my brand new $25 swim bait, which he is still sporting around 2 months later. Quote
Super User Fishing Rhino Posted March 20, 2011 Super User Posted March 20, 2011 I'm taking a bit of license here, and going back to my lobstering days. We hauled up all manner of odd things, among them, about six anchors, one very large one, several basking sharks, railings from sunken vessels, countless sinkers, jigs, and assorted fishing rigs when lobstering in areas where the party boats fished. But the winner, which falls into the "What are the odds category?", was a mainsail from a 34 foor Hinkley sailboat. Three days later, when hauling the same gear, in the same area, the sail bag for the sail came up, wrapped around the ground line. Quote
BassThumb Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Condems are quite common out of the Milwaukee Harbor. Disgusting! We have a winner!! Quote
possumsniper2 Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Not me reeling it in. But my youngest daughter catching a stingray that weighed at least 25 pounds or more on an 8 lb. test line. Still trying to figure out how she managed to land that big ray with her being so little, and it fighting like crazy. Quote
ripinthem Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 I've caught some freshwater mussel. I guess they just close when the bait is dragged into them. Funny thing is you feel the line "tick" just like a bite as it closes on the line. Then you jerk and reel in a clam(mussel). They don't open, so you either have to bust open it and kill it, or cut the line. Quote
fadetoblack21 Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 My weirdest would be what was left of a rusted tricycle about 5 feet from the bank when I was fishing from the bank. Waded out and pulled it in because it was partially buried in the mud. I was also the victim of my fishing buddies weirdest catch. . . ME. . .when he sunk his hook in the side of my neck while casting. Quote
GuntersvilleSlayer Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 A tree bass. :D. Ha no but probably a bathing suit was the wierdest for me. Quote
Super User tomustang Posted March 23, 2011 Super User Posted March 23, 2011 A black wifebeater in the delaware, it fought in the current good. I don't think i'll ever top my wife's catch of a diaper though :-? Quote
saint romain Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 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 Quote
AndyPlaysDrums Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Caught a pair of somebody's boxers today. Quote
hatrix Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Im not sure what the weirdest thing i ever caught was. I guess its between a bicycle a hub cap or a bird cage. I guess the best thing I ever caught was a tree branch with at least 20 lures on it when I was maybe around 12 or 13. It was like winning the fishing lottery and the rest of the day I remember trying to find more branches to snag on for more lures. Quote
TerryR Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 I reeled in a crawdad trout fishing with red worms along the bottom of a creek once. It just wouldn't let go of the worm. Quote
pitchinthejig Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 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. 1 Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted November 27, 2011 Super User Posted November 27, 2011 Before I got married I used to enjoy me some stripper fishing once in a while. 5 Quote
