Found Anything??

Whats the best or strangest thing you have found while fishing? In the
water, in the parking area? Was it valuable? did you return it or try to?

Not much for mr prsonally (a cheap wooden net, a myriad of spinning lures)
but I do know a guy who found a set of dentures. I creeped him out.

Well, found a few fishing rods (diving under the dock to get mine). Found a
fly box with about $100 in flie (perfectly sealed, no rust on the flies) at
Penns. Found a wallet with a couple of hundred bucks in it. Tracked down
the owner and returned it. Found a lot of friends along the way, haven't
lost any of them.

Intentionally? ;-)

Never found anything strange while fishisn', (yes, I have been fishin'! )
, but once while fishing in Michigan with my brother, he reached into the
water and scooped up a beautiful pink water lily and gave it to me. I still
have it. I know-sappy, huh?

Snakefiddler- and i always baited my own hook- i'm not scared of no slimy
worms.....

Kind of strange, but I've found 3 fly boxes since 2000. The
latest box had well over 200 flies! All of which appeared to
be well tied by the owner. In all instances, I've tried to
find the owner by checking at the local fly shops.

A month or two back we found an oar in the water. This was a
very expensive counterbalanced graphite drift boat oar. I sent
a few emails to the local shops and low and behold we found the
owner. The guy was real excited, since he estimated the value
of the oar at $300. I ended up getting a free weekend lodging
package down on the Bighorn out of the deal!

Hm.....well, if you didn't find both there's a good chance that it
belonged to Jeffie, or wayno, or Mike, or Ken, or Dave, or Joe, or
Tim, or Tom, or Steve, or George, or Mark, or John, or.......well, you
get the picture.

Boy-howdy (yumpin-yiminy for you cheese-heads)! I've been floating down ****
Creek in that condition for YEARS now.

Hm......wrong Tim, I think. Sounds like you are without one; I was
referring to those who didn't have both of 'em in the water.

So you've been up **** Creek with one oar in the water?
