I was at the boat ramp on Tenkiller a few years ago and saw a tied rope in the water. Thought I would see what was on the end of it.
I pulled and out of the water popped the biggest catfish head I had EVER seen. I might have done something else in my pants if it had been an alligator gar.
Was fishing at a pond in Hulbert, OK and caught three Large Mouth Bass. Nice ones.
Got late in the day so pulled my string of fish and went to another pond with shade.
dropped my dead fish in the water to keep them fresh and went to the other side of the pond. Was casting and thought my “dead fish” were actually alive. It looked like they were flopping around from my view point.
Wasn’t getting any hits and it was late in the day. Three 5-7 pounders is a pretty good day.
Walked over grabbed hold of the string and pulled up fish lips. Terrapins got ‘em.
I was screaming and yelling, throwing rocks in the pond. Damn turtles!
My great day ended up sucking.
Looking back it is pretty funny. I’d still kill the turtle that robbed me though.
