cool things you've reeled out fo the water?

[crankybait]

hey guys... im just curious, what kind of stuff do you accidentaly pull out of the water (not fish!!!) some people find some pretty cool stuff... on one forum a guy pulled in a ring, another puled in a loomis rod...

well here is my list
- a booyah pond magic spinnerbait (yellow) with some prok on it
- 2 sinkers and a bare hook
- a tangled line with like 6 weights in it
- a small jerkbait

what about you guys?

um yeah, lets see, I've reeled in a big zooknstien once, manufacturer is a mystery or well kept secret, then one day on the river I drug in a lizard, once at the resovoir I snagged two baits at once, a flyrod and a rebspinner, lets see, got hooked into a jig n pig when fishing up in NY, a couple of times I got a firemans hose down in fla. , then once I got a real angry lush and a kid doc in jersey, the biggest catch was a pair of texan lures, musta been a male/female duo.. got a older lure once that had a L on the end of it, then a wisecrackin politian lure that graduated school.... but the biggest catch was a tattoo'd ol turd that I got on the ohio river (snagged meself)...the list goes on n on rofl

Yeah, that danged prok builds up on dern near everything! Worse than waxy yellow buildup or even ring around the collar!

I've dredged up a lot of stuff over more years than I care to admit.
A few lures
A small Danforth anchor with a few feet of rope (snagged the rope.)
A weighted bag of leftovers from someone dismantling a (poached?) deer.
Two rod 'n reels, one in perfect shape (Amby 4600C on a 6'6" Shimano Compre, returned to owner after a cleaning 'cause his driver's license number was etched on the reel foot.)
A camera bag with a Nikon F3 and three lenses...toooooo late...sniff.
A small soft cooler bag.
Lots of wads of mono...dammit!

Fun stuff!

I was at a fishing tourny, Three Rivers Classic, today at Point State Park in Pittsburgh (on shore fishing, 500 people.. not alot of room)...

Largest of the day was a 31in carp....

lunker was 5ft... but not a fish... this guy 50 yards down from us caught a bicycle. O the wonderful things you can find in the Monongahela River....

P.S. Oh yea, it was in pretty good shape to... he rode it around for a lil... must have been in the water for less than a week...

[pittfusion31]

haha wow great about pittsburgh i never really understood why we got the bassmaster's classic last year...

if i wouldve known about that tourny i mightve gone down o well

it'd be a nice fishing area if it wasnt for all the pollution from the mills in the area

[ToPwAt'R GuY]

I caught a spincast rod and reel,an old jitterbug,3 spinnerbaits, and an empty beer bottle.

[keithdog]

Once while casting from a dock for pike in Minnesota I hooked onto and retrieved the same daredevel spoon that went sailing on me three days previous from the same dock when my line snapped on the cast.

[bassnman30]

A snapping turtle-appx.20-25 lbs.
A big rag that had been stuck to the bottum that I lost a bait in a week before.
Yes I got my older bait back.
A net.
A "good" spinning rod and reel.
An anchor.

[crankybait]

very cool... man would i love to putt out some of that stuff... i had the idea of using like the heaviest braid line, and then putting 5 leaders on it with lots of hooks and a big sinker, then reeling in and seeing what came up...

[JB]

I just remembered, when I was up in Freemont Ohio fishing the river for walleye, I snagged a big minnow sane that had about 30 jigs stuck in it lol

[dampeoples]

I once got a street sign fishing around a bridge, almost got in in too before the line broke

[airmcnair8888]

we got the bassmasters to prove how much harder the fishing is up here... and how much smaller the fish are... haha

[pittfusion31]

i can see how harder thats for sure haha.

me n my buddies were talking and thought maybe that someone might catch some 30 footer mutated fish or somethin from all the stuff in the water these days haha

[zooker]

umm. 8 foot fiberglass step ladder-my biggest to date
team diawa rod/reel-still use
trees of every size.
a large tonka toy-bucket loader
and oh yeah a BODY!!-blasted ice fisherman

[airmcnair8888]

i have spotted Nessy and Jaws once or twice in the Monongahela River... not sure if they were mutated yet though

[HockeyDood]
