This is easy to remember. I have "caught" exactly 4 Cottonmouths, although I
don't believe that "caught" is exactly the right word. The fact is that I
intentionally snagged each in the back with oversized Abu-Reflex inline
spinners by casting across their backs & then jerking hard when the lures
were just dangling past their backs, burying the hooks deep in them.

There is a small downside to such antics: First, I ran out of those prized
lures. Also, of course I always seemed to fall & skin myself up badly as I
ran away in terror. I can't really say that I eventually grew out of stupid
things like this... I just ran out of the lures.

What are the weirdest (whatever your definition of that is) things
that you,
or any friends, have caught so far while fishing ?
