Fish that have taken you the most work to land...
Inspired by tangledline's recent adventure, share the stories behind the fish that took you the most work to land!
I'll start: Just this May, I had my first experience fishing for steelhead. I was armed with my leaky garage sale rubber boots and jeans! Of course I hook into a colourful male that decided to ride the current downstream, so I shouted to my friend that I was going with the fish. 15 minutes later, I come back looking like the above picture... The fish had wrapped itself around the line and wedged itself between 2 rocks in 3 feet of water. He wasn't showing any signs of wanting to come out on his own. So I went in after 'em , grabbed him by the tail, and yanked him out. He was quite snugly stuck between those two rocks! Best part is, I didn't even USE the net... I had to carry it in my mouth the whole way! I don't do this anymore, because a net in the mouth during a fall would break all teeth! After all this abuse of the myself and the fish (and grabbing him by the gills), I decided to try tasting steelhead for dinner. |
