bassrecord Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Two good ole boys from the Arkansas Ozarks (my home), Jim Bob and Bubba were camped out on the lake and trot line fishing. They had just run the trot line after dark and were waiting for the midnight run before turning in for the night. After a while the conversation turned to weird stuff they had caught like the topic of this thread. Jim Bob said, "One time I was out trot lining on this lake and caught a two foot long bream! I never saw a bluegill that big before!" Bubba said, "That's nothing. Last year I was out here with Howard Lee and when we run the trot line just before dark, he knocked the Coleman Lantern into the water. At midnight when we run the trot line again, the handle of that lantern had hooked on a fish hook on our trot line and we got it back up and it was still burning." "Get outta here!" Jim Bob said. "You don't expect me to believe that tale do you? It wasn't still burning!" Bubba said, "Tell you what. you cut one foot off that big bluegill you said you caught, and I'll blow out the light!" Good luck! John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GonefishingAZ Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 I just thought of another strange one for me. We were fishing a little urban lake as kids, we'd caught several gills and had them on a stringer. One of our group dropped the entire string into the lake before securing it, losing all our fish. About 10 mins later i get bit, only to find that one of the fish still on the stringer was still hungry or greedy enough to bite my bait even with the nylon stringer running through it mouth and gill. All the fish were still attached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz001 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Hi Vodkaman and thanks for the welcome.Plenty of good info on this site which I'm sure will help in my lure making. Getting back on topic, I was fishing with 2 friends once and one of them managed to hook the other on the back cast.Looked very painful as the hooker went right through with his cast embedding the hooks deep into the hookee's ear.

Milia B Posted April 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Ok seeing how we've resorted to telling jokes, I have one. Although off subject I think it's pretty funny. Maybe you can tell it to your fishing buddy. Here goes......A chiniese man and his wife are in the midst of making mad passionate love, when the husband yells out "I wanna 69, I wanna 69!!!" To which his wife replies " why do you want Beef and Broccoli now?????" .......

What are you doing over there in the States ??? Why dont you sell up, come over here and live with me ?? We could go fishin, tell jokes, have a good laugh whilst doing so and then have a 41 on the way home (That's Beef and Broccoli here in the UK) .

diemai Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 @ bassrecord , @ MiliaB @ Baz001 Welcome aboard , great , that you're here:) ! That incident , you've described , is one more proof , that one should really take care about whom to choose for his fishing partners . Reminds me to a surgery in a small harbour located at the German Baltic coast , that is known nationwide for its local fishing boats making angling daytrips out on the sea . The surgeon in there has a big showglass on the wall of his examination room displaying dozens of hooks , that through the years he had to pull out of all different body parts of anglers coming back in from their trips on the fishing boats . greetz , diemai:yay: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazmail Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 We have huge Chinese menus here, 'Beef and Brocoli' is #96, not sure what a 69 is though. Speaking of Chinese food, did you get your rod Phil? pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical of the UK things are just impossible to get hold of here. It's like living in a third world country sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
