What's The Craziest Thing You Ever Pulled Up In A Cast Net?

Are those hardheads? My sons are wondering where they go in the winter. Where'd you get them?

Those are 3 channel cats. They weighted 8, 11, and 14 lbs respectively. Caught them way back in the marsh around Chenier Au Tigre

I caught a 3.5 foot Gar this past fall and once I caught a 20 lb black drum. I got him loose after a few minutes with only one hole in the net.
I pulled up a crab grabber like this one. . |

A 3-4lb speck, a 30-40lb drum, a small gator.... saw an old woman catch a massive school of hardheads at the hog. Took forever to get them out. Nice meat haul on the channel cats, did they rip your net up?

Not too bad. Broke the barbs of with some pliers and they slide right out.

Did not catch this in a cast net, but in a shrimp troll, (Blue Point, near Cypromort Pt.) a 45 pound thrust trolling motor, Motor Guide, with barnicles as big as your thumb. I called John Glespy a VP in charge of advertising and he sent me a brand new Motor Guide. They took my found trolling motor and displayed it in several fishing shows while running it in a glass cage.

Of course it worked. It just needed a new circuit board and a new motor. The plastic case and shaft were just fine. The smiley emoji is added to mean this is a joke on my part and no hard feelings are intended.

Caught a huge muscovy duck when I was 10 or so. It didn't go well.

Not weird, but I filled a cast net to max with mullet casting in the surf in Grand Isle. I was giving mullet to half the beach, we had a good tidal pool that was pretty deep and staying above the tide, so we used it to house what we didn't use for crab bait right away. It took 3 of us to get it to shore and we didn't know where else to dump it. We made a cut the last day of our trip to let the remaining mullet go back to freedom.

One summer, far out at the Trash Pile in VB, I reeled in a pink colored Snoopy style Zebco combo, complete with a leadhead and plastic. It was very recent as it had no corrosion on it. Cleaned it up and it worked perfectly. It was pre-internet, and I eventually gave it to someone's kid as a gift.
Again years ago, while fishing the Cameron Jetties, my cousin reeled in a chunk of Coral. It was dead of course, but how it got there we forever wondered. It was the size that someone would have in their aquarium for a structure so perhaps someone threw it out there thinking it would live on. |
