Well... my weirdest thing has to be a catfish skeleton. My wife once
caught
a bra... but it didn't fit.

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

Pelican.
Quite a fight to get him in so I could unhook him (yeah, I could have
just cut the line, but ....)
He was pretty docile once I had him under an arm; those big birds don't
weigh hardly anything for their large size.

Since I also fish sal****er, I have hooked several pelicans. Last one a
week ago, shore fishing about 30 miles from La Paz, Baja, MX. young one.
Took several tries to get himself hooded up with a Crocodile's trebles. I
got his beak under his wing and he/she calmed down. Could remove the croc
and she swam away giving me an evil eye.
