thats all I have to say.well I have two stories about odd catches
so I was at this fishing tournament where you fished of course but you had to walk this trail and go to two check points where these rangers were, so I was walking the trail to the last ranger to stamp my pass so as I was walking I see a man helping a women in the water so I just keep going, the whole time I had caught nothing so I keep walking for about an hour fishing every so often. then I come to this man in a logging machine and ask if there were any rangers past here and he says there is nothing but swamps after here and then he tells me the station in which I was to return to is about 15 km the other way so I start back, by this time I am exhausted so I take a break and fish some
so far I have not caught a thing not even a bite but all of a sudden I get one and I am reeling in expecting a little trout but when I get my line in there is a big bull frog with my hook and worm in his mouth, needless to say that when I returned back to the station I was 2 hours late and there were 3 atvs out looking for me and all I could say is "I caught a frog!"
another is on opening day we went up to the river and we were there for about 4 hour befor we about to call it quits as no one had caught anything when all of a sudden I get this ard tug on the line and yell to my friend I think it's a salmon! they all come over and my rod is bent like you could never imagine it, I could feel the "fish" shaking and thrashing but something seemed odd, as the "fish" came into view we see this circular "fish" waving back and forth in a swaying motion then I noticed this "fish" had the volvo emblem in it and as we dragged it out we had a very nice volvo hub cap
