The usual suspects. Carp, walleye, bluegill, crappie, cats, gar, drum, whites, and a few hybrids.

I think I got about 5 bass this year by accident.

My son and I were fishing the neighborhood pond the other day and he caught a Mussel on a spinnerbait. I was maybe 25 or 30 feet away from him at the time, and figured he just snagged it with the hook. When I walked over to help him, that thing was clamped down on the spinnerbait and I had to pry it open to get the bait out. Never seen anything like it.

Hmmm... Perch and bluegill on a drop shot, tons of crappie on a hair jig in the spring, walleye on jerkbaits, millions of pike on everything... and this ugly dude flipping a jig under a dock

I caught back to back catfish on a square billed this year . Now I know what pro's mean when they talk about a pattern .

[Casslaw]

Since I'm in Florida there aren't that many things that can really be caught in a lake. This year its been crappie, bluegill, softshell turtle, 2 types of catfish, mudfish, gar, warmouth and tilapia. Sadly, a huge 12-14 lb catfish hit my Little John during a tourney and I swore I had a really good bass on! It was a good 15 seconds before I felt him sliming the line . I really need that to be an 8 pounder!! lol

[plbass]

Usually catch every species in whatever lake i'm fishing.

i forgot to list my grass, tree, and plastic bag bass. I’ve also been fishing a season long “ other people’s fishing line” tournament against my trolling motor. My trolling motor has definitely caught more fishing line bass than I have this season. I will catch up.

I was bass fishing a couple days ago and caught one of the biggest catfish I’ve ever caught. I caught it on a medium running crank bait.

[billnorman1]

Since someone mentioned carp, I've caught them on crankbaits, and they have bitten the lure, not snagged. I've also caught drum, as well as everything he mentioned except Muskies which would probably come from Centennial Lake.
I've caught Herring, and Gizzard shad, both on crankbaits, in the mouth and too many Blue catfish.

[madmurph]

My son caught a pair of men's underwear this spring. That one will live with him forever.

The usual suspects for me: LMB, SMB, rock bass, blue gill, pike, goby, catfish and walleye.

[ParDeus]

I only really started fishing again this year... The second fish I caught, well hell I didn't know what it was. It was 25", kinda looked like a "dracula" trout, had nasty sharp teeth. Took a pic, tossed it back.

Turns out it was a walleye. I had no f'n clue we had walleye in TN, hell I didn't know what one looked like anyways!

[edwonbass]

This thing hit a square bill in about 3 feet of water. Took me a few minutes to drag it in.
