Back before I got a boat, I was fishing on a local dock and noticed that there was a drunk at the end of the dock TRYING to hook a duck. He finally succeeded and thought it was a big joke. He cut the line to the duck and dropped his coozie in the water in the process. He was bent over trying to retrieve said coozie when I was walking by. I "accidentally" nudged him and knocked him into the water. He thought he slipped.

I was fishing a fun tournament in late August this year. The water was cooling, so I was throwing a Sammy hoping for a big one to fall prey. I cast up toward shore, the perfect cast, right between a couple rocks, the kind of cast that swells your chest a tad, I start working the Sammy back toward the boat over the deeper water, when a beaver surfaces from under the back part of the boat and starts swimming toward the front of the boat between myself and my Sammy. The beaver swims over the top of my line. I watch as the line goes under the beavers neck, and pulls the Sammy into itself. Nothing I could do. The Sammy gets hung in the top of the beavers head and the fight is on. 10 lb. pline, a $15 Sammy, and a 30 pound beaver. I don't want to cut the line, I don't want to loose the Sammy, I don't want the hook in the beavers head.......I figure if I can get the beaver close to the boat, maybe I can reach down and pop the hook lose. The beaver and I go at it for a good 5 minutes, finally it comes up near the boat, I kneel down with my leatherman pliars to reach for the hook.....POP!, out comes the hook at a high rate of speed back towards me. In the span of 2 seconds, I went from trying to get a hook out of a beavers head, to having a hook embedded in my forhead! The co-angler in my boat that day saw it all!

i landed a herron while fishing on the #9 fairway pond @ princedale CC on a jig in the middle of golf on sunday when i was about 14. I wish someone would have had a video of that thing getting about 15 feet off the ground and me dragging it back until he finally spit the jig. Hook got around beak but didnt penetrate thank goodness

I was fishing a pond one time and we had been catching several fish on a spinnerbait. There was a large willow tree on the shoreline and I kept hearing something splashing underneath. I could not get a spinnerbait under it so I decided the only way to catch these fish was to go through the top. I picked up my trusty jig and pig and threw it up in the air and it went crashing down into the willow, I started to peel off enough line to get it in the water and it when it did the water swirled. I rared back and set the hook on the fish, except it wasn't a fish. It was a big frog. He looked like someone shot him out of a cannon when it flew about 20 feet in the air. It landed on the ground and my brother is rolling around on the ground laughing so hard I thought he was going to throw up. Well I took the hook out and said to well since the bass stopped biting I'm going frog fishing. I threw the bait up in the air and it went back down in the tree and I caught another one.

Oh Yeah, it was a blue jig with blue pork if you want to try this.
