Caught a 18" brookie in a creek up near East Glacier with a full size mouse, unharmed in it's stomach.  It was dead but looked like it hadn't even touched a tooth going down the gullet.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Alder leaves? That is strange.

I knew a guy who caught a big sucker with a "rubber" in it's stomach. :dunno:

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Nothing real strange in a salmon or steelhead, did catch a big northern in minnesota with about a 2lb sucker in its gut that was in one piece, mostly un- digested

When I was about ten, my Dad and I went out on a charter out of Ocean Shores. We spent the morning salmon fishing and listening to this whiny kid a year or two older then I was just annoy everyone on the boat because he caught the first salmon and won the the "first" part of the First and biggest boat derby with a silver about 2.5 lbs. After a few hours and only hooking three salmon total we started bottome fishing. My Dad hooked a 36 lb lingcod, and we caught a few smaller lings and rock fish. I swear by the time we got back to the dock we all wanted to push the kid overboard because of the continuous whining. When the baitboy started unloading the fish we came up one silver short. The captain knew right away what had happened, they cut open the gut of my Dad's ling and there was the whiny snot's silver bit in two pieces, lol. You should have heard the kid cry when the baitboy gave him his slimy fish in two pieces, I was on the ground rolling with laughter.

Not really weird, I thought it was cool though.  35lb King with one of those diving sea birds, Auklets I believe they are called. I can't imagine he thought it was a herring, which would me he thought it looked tasty. Greedy bugger.

 I've caught hatchery plant rainbow with all kinds of wierd crap in em, bellies full of drift wood, cigarette butts etc....was dragging my line around behind my float tube once and spitting sunflower seeds, when I'ld got home with the 5 I'ld kept and started cleaning them they all had bellies full of sunflower shells. I guess that may be considered chumming. I have a friend of a friend that caught a keeper size sturgeon of the east end wall in Astoria,when he cleaned it it had a belly full of dead kittens, somebody apperantly tossed a bag of kittys off the wall and the fish found em.

I caught a springer a few years back and it had a black wire hanging out of its mouth.  When I opened it up it had a transmitter in it's belly.
Also caught a springer that had 6 of the chips they insert into the smolts head in its belly.  They found them with the wand that they waive over the adult fishes head.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!
