Ever cought a Fish with a lure in its mouth?
Ever cought a Fish with a lure in its mouth?
Last week I was fishing the Ottawa river with a little red crankbait when a when a large fish, probably a bass just swallowed it, snapped the line and took off with the lure in its mouth.
The line had poor abrasion resistance, no wonder it broke almost instantly..
Anyways, I'm wondering where the fish is now, and who will be the lucky angler to find that lure..
I was wondering if anyone ever found a lure in a fishe's mouth, or stomach.. That would really be .. two catches in one ..

Lol... haahah
That's very encouraging Lunker, thank you.
No, the lure was an inexpensive one similar in shape to a FatRap, red in color with thin black lines. Very productive! Fish like to pick on smaller lures with confidence, ...the way big muscular men like to pick on little wimpy men, knowing that they are an "easy meal". Know what im saying?.. If the lure is big, it will be respected !
hahahaahah

Years ago while fishing a walk-in lake near Grundy Lake P.P. My buddy lost a real doozy of a Pike on a spinnerbait. About an hour later and several hundred feet up the shoreline i caught and landed the beast with the spinnerbait still in it's yap!!......there was a bit of a squabble and some trash talk as to who that spinnerbait belonged to....posession is 9/10 of the law
I've caught some handsomely decorated fish over the years....just last week while fishing with Ratsotail, i managed to catch an odd looking worm harness contraption.

All the fish I catch have a lure in there mouth (mine)
Me it was this winter at Petrie, a little pike had swallowed a hook before but it was just millimeters away from having gone thru it's system. So with a little tug the fish was now free to roam around and not have to worry about rubbing up on a branch and it hurting like hell.

Last summer I was fishing a big lily patch in about 3 ft of water, chucking a freshly rigged 10" red shad powerworm to the edge of the lilies I saw a nice bass smack the worm and my line broke when I set the hook. After I was done having a hissy fit, I picked up a flippin tube and started fishing the lilies again. On my second cast with the tube, I get the familiar tap and set the hook on a nice bass.
When I removed the tube from his yap, I also took a second to remove a fresh 10" red shad powerworm.

My cousin was telling me how some big fish had come and just snapped the line while casting a 2'' blue and silver rapala. The following week end we go back to the same spot, and wouldn't you know, I catch a pike with his rapala stuck to the side of it's mouth. Boy was he pee pee........... Turned out to be my PB at 8 lbs.
