I was flyfishing below Pali
es Dam a while back and found myself with a fish on. When I landed it I saw that the fish hadn't taken my fly at all (not the first time a fish has done this to me). The fish had a hook in it's mouth attached to a few feet of leader and a snap swivel. My fly had hooked through the eye of the snap swivel!
And some of you may remember how I was miraculously able to retrieve my bottle of orange juice that fell down the hole and sunk. It can happen! Remember the movie "Grumpy Old Men"? Max loses the Green Hornet down the hole and John catches it a few days later. "The Green Hornet strikes again!!!"
