I broke off a pencil popper one morning. The following morning we were fishing the exact same spot and a buddy I was fishing w/put a hook thru the eye of it.

Happened to me on The Block one Nov. Bob Guillitone lost a pink needle at the SW point. 2 hours later Scotty Slocum hooked it right thru the eye of the plug. |
No boat, back in the suds.

Here we go again
Karma part 2. well I was crushing schoolies on my brandy new shimano orca this morning, felt a little tap tap, went for the hook set and felt the worst feeling in fishing... nothing. Cursing and huffing I retied and moved spots to find a million more schoolies on top water.
Shortly after I got a phone call from my buddy I was fishing with earlier in the morning. He said he talked to a guy that saw a fish floating around on the surface and caught a herring colored orca attached to a schoolies face! Of course I told mike "WELL GET IT BACK FROM HIM GD IT!!!" the gentlemen decided not to suspecting foul play.
Mike said its that guy with the orange fish gripper we saw right near our cars. So on my way back I see the guy and say "excuse me sir..." who turns around and ITS CHEF CHRIS!!  Unreal so we catch a few more fish and I get my rediculously expensive plug back being this time on the other end of the lost and plug found experience! The plug had like 20 yrds of braid wrapped around it, must have had a frayed section from rubbin on a rock. What are the chances? mind you we were at least 200 yards apart from where I broke the plug off and where chris was fishing... Thanks Chris! |

That was too funny this morning!!
I'm walking back from round one and see this small fish, cruising on the surface its 12" max, its swimming in a tight circle, after watching it for a bit I realize it has a plug its in mouth/face, so i decide ill try snagging the line and hopefully release the fish and score myself a plug.
After a few tries with an sp minnow, it catches the line, i hand line the lil guy in and theres a $30 shimano orca in its mouth, sweet score! Fish is released after a few pics. Poor little guy couldn't swim down cause of the buoyancy of the plug.
There was a guy watching the whole thing, I said it had a shimano orca attached to it and he claimed "oh thats my friends he lost one earlier" he didn't ask for it back, then he said I knew the guy, Johnny sax, no $hit. I figure johnnys parked near me ill leave it on his rack.
Next cast I hook up with the biggest fish of the day on a herring colored jig, then johnny walks up and we start bsing about the plug and continuing to catch fish, he misses class and I'm 1.5 hour late for work.
Good karma buddy, and nice fishing with you again, its been a while.

One day fishing in my boat with Ducketts and BiteMe...Ducketts catches a fish(no really-that is not the strange part)on a yellow plug that was his first ever Ho'D(from Rockfish)and proceeds to break it off...he is bumming(not about losing the fish...but the plug).
The next day, I ran the boat hard to get all of Ducketts' tears to run out of the scuppers(took awhile but I managed)...and then Biteme and I set up in same spot where we were getting fish the day before...
Biteme says "hey look a plug..."
24 hours later...all those tides...and that yellow plug that Ducketts lost floats right up to the middle of my boat ...Biteme reaches over the side and picks it up like it was a picnic...crazy...
gives it back to Ducketts...
Man, what are the chances...
