While working a popper through some lily pads I caught a huge bullfrog, and I watched as a gull swooped down and picked up my buddies top water lure while reeling it in. That was one ticked off gull when we were trying to remove the treble hooks.
I caught one time some kind of dolphin fish or something at a nearby lake. I was fishing and I castes really far and I feel a slight pull and go crazy and in like 10 minutes I reel in this like 2' snake looking fish I think it was called a dolphin fish I don't remember. And another time on the Delaware river I was fishing and using worms and I cast out and after I think it's a huge carp or walleye I reel in a huge *ss snapping turtle! It took like 30 minutes to reel in and it was huge! Like 20"! Then I just paddled back to shore and let some huge bulky fisherman get it off lol he was too big for me to catch! I was terrified
