I have gotten one fishing rod and reel and a landing net this year...but that's not really strange...no I have never reeled in a shitty rod and reel either...last one was a mantis combo..i don't like the feel of it personally as I am picky about my gear but hey it was free

While fishing a lake in east Texas many years ago, I saw a school of shad balling up on the surface,,,Figuring there was a big bass under them when I cast a diving plug lure into the middle of 'em.. Didn't hook a bass, but saw something on a treble hook when I reeled my lure in...Looked closely, thinking it was a tiny piece of weed or trash...

It was a baby shad, 1/8 inch long.
One barb of the treble hook had totally impaled it... Smallest fish I ever caught in my life on a rod and reel!

The strangest thing I ever caught fishing is a real bad cold!!

I like catfishing...but, all I caught was damn Buffalo carp & occasional long-nose Gar.

Crappie are fun, too.

mmmmmmmm crappie... haven't been out recently but I just acquired some guerilla tape for my wrist...setting up a few sliding bobbers and then its crappie killing time again....ooh ya the trout is a biting too.....the dji phantom I found got a new home with someone who had a base model and was gonna salvage the 4 way camera mount ,rotors and the rest for spare parts....yeehaw...now that was a strange catch...theres some huge crappie here and I plan on catching some this year.....that one pictured is my biggest so far... time to load up on pain killers, booze and dope and get back at it...my wrist is really fucked and painfull but the urge to get out there is overwhelming me ...biggest catfish so far here is 30 inches...room for improvement but theres only channel catfish and they don't get that big around 50 lbs max..think the record here is like 45 not exactly sure

Yeah, that is nice fish, I'd be wanting more of those too. Only had crappie a few times

on one of the streams off the Denali Hwy north of Anchorage strange as it seems caught a game warden. He saw me before salmon season on the stream from his airplane then landed it and drove over and walked up on me. I knew it wasn't salmon season yet so I was rigged for trout and looking at my rig he believed me and let me go. But looking at the submerged little submarines, probably 60# salmon, move by me lead to me coming back during salmon season and I pulled a 58# king out. And that was fairly strange as the biggest fish had ever caught was about 15#.

a buddy and i were fishing for striper in a river under a bridge, only thing we caught that day was a painter that fell of the bridge about 80'.

I guess a really big fish surely takes a prize for 'strange!' roflmao

Ocean fishing, smallest fish would be the biggest fresh water catch, it is addictive not to mention peaceful and isolating. Nothing else comes close to ocean fishing for me... bigger fish are much more fun to reel in.
