I once caught an electric trolling motor while jigging for Walleye. Another time, I was casting a spoon for Pike, and got tangled up with a mallard duck midflight...That was an interesing fight. Caught a 30lb Channel cat....not unusual in itself, but the location was. It happened in a little pond off the side of a drainage ditch in my field, cut off for at least a month from any lake stream or river. I wanted to see how a new line casted, so I decided to toss a spoon into the pond. Never would have thought there would be a fish there...Another time I pulled up a Winchester Hinge break 12 gauge in the marsh. Thing was so rusted up the hinge wouldn't break no more. I guess someone was hunting ducks and dropped it off his boat...
