Re: Unusual Things found when fishing.
#61Three weeks ago fishing the HF i ran out of dry powder floatant for my CDC bugs. i mean there was virtually none left for weeks but this evening even the brush was depleted and it was way past time for a new bottle. i was crossing back to the parking lot below the log jam being careful not to join the HF diving club. Mid channel something white was floating towards me in the river.. i reached out and almost went swimming grabbing it.. what was it? a brand spanking new bottle of frog fanny thank you very much!! timing is everything!!

#62During a riverbank cleanup along the Saranac River a number of years ago I found a large caliber-shaped, plastic item with batteries inside. Won the prize for most unusual found item but, told to keep it out of site of the younger members of the clean-up crew!

#63Earlier this week my line got snagged on a moss-covered length of rope; when I pulled it in this large magnet was attached. It's a pretty strong one. This is a small urban drainage lake so I doubt anyone was searching for a murder weapon etc. but maybe...
I spent most of my money on shotguns, fly rods, guitars and banjos. The rest I just wasted. (Apologies to W.C. Fields)

#64"Magnet fishing" is a popular pastime these days. Lots of youtube videos about it...
