I don't know if you guys have seen it yet. but this is me and a couple buddies couple weeks back fishing for crappie and bird comes out of no where and tries to take a crappie right of the fishing rod. like and share. same lake last weekend we caught a crappie that got off near the surface and then died. about 5 minutes a bald eagle comes down and grabs the fish not 10 ft from us. it was awesome to see. comment if this has happened to you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPGKj8IrvFA

I have had an owl try to get a hooked fish from me a couple of years ago while fishing Lake Mcqueeney. It did not get hooked but it scared the blank out of me!

That has happened to be a couple of times over the years. Good news all the birds were not hurt!

In Georgia I had an Osprey fly down and dive after my spinnerbait. I saw what was happening and stopped the retrieve to let the spinner fall deeper, luckily he missed it. I have also had a few cormorants chase a spinnerbait underwater all the way to the boat.
