found the thread on "stangest thing you caught".......now I have never caught strange things but I was witness to something BAD!
I was Damn fishing for walleye back in 199something (cant mamber) at around 2am. All the sudden I saw a couple guys to my North cut line and get out ASAP....next thing I see was 3 sheriff cars sreaming across the damn road. I was goign to go over to see what was going on but just hooked a nice 26" eye. Once I was done I headed to the car (79' monte carlo back then) and they were ALL coming down and started asking ?'s to people. Apparently smoeone was wading out in 4' water and had a snag and when he pulled it up it was the leg of a body with boot still on........Found out there was a small boat capsized and against the northern most jeggie. This guy was older (60's) and was night fishing and apparently the wind was too strong and rolled him. All the clothes and rubber boots on filled with water and drowned him....later to get caught by local Walleye fisherman as he washed up on the damn.....doesnt bother me now but really messed with me at the time it happened.
Sorry.....just wanted to post that![]()
