I've had to put some thought behind this one cuz I've caught more non-fish than I've caught fish...Let me mention just a few. 1 duck,1 goose, ? seagulls, Alaska king crabs, multiple cats (ask Larry), my own chin with a spence scout...I got pictures, one rod and reel combo, and one night night fishing with a buzz bait the water just exploded, I knew if I just wait and let the fish hook himself I would have the biggest fish I'd ever caught, so I waited...@ seconds later I just about got yanked out of my lil boat to my left, a great horned owl came down and grabed my buzz bait and flew off with it, my rod was doubled in 1/2 and I'm pulling the drag by hand so the line wouldn't break, my rod finally became streight and the buzz bait hit me in the chest, long story short, this owl got me 7 times in about 2 hundred yards of beach, It was so dark I couldn't see him coming, so I listend for him, when I heard him I would let the buzz bait sink for a second or two and than keep going, if the owl missed it would double back and get it on the rebound and fly off the other direction and try to land in the trees with it. Last but not least, the all time scarriest thing I ever cought was a silky pr. of speedo's with "LARRY" monogramed on the back! Quick kids...every body out of the water.
