California pro Skeet Reese was asked to name the
strangest thing he’d ever caught while bass fishing. “An otter,” he
replied. “It was February in Clear Lake and I was throwing a jerkbait. I
saw a little bubble trail underneath the water, and I thought it was a carp or
something stirring up the bottom. I threw over there, jerked it a couple
of times and paused the bait. All of a sudden my line took off, and I thought
I had a good one. Then this thing came jumping out of the water, and it
scared the ever-loving daylights out of me. I had no idea. I just saw big eyes
and teeth and a tail. It freaked me out.”
Fortunately, the otter dislodged the hooks. “Thank goodness because there
was no way I was touching that thing,” Reese said.
What about you? Catch anything weird?
