I saw a guy almost turn his truck into a boat at the boat ramp.
Luckily, he knew when to give up trying to go forward and call a tow truck to get him out. Here's the pic:

Why did you release it?

Caught a 24" walleye on a piece of cut bait while flathead fishing. That is about the most unusual thing I can think of from last year.

Craziest was being harassed by animal activist during a tournament, they even got drone footage during the weigh in. These nut cases want all fishing to be out lawed. They believe fish feel pain, have emotions, have family groups etc. Talk about bat sh* crazy

I didn't catch / release it.

An angler who fishes there for channel cats did, & reported it to us (NJDF&W).

Hudson Co. has a "catch & release" policy / signs @ Duck Pond.

He didn't want to get in trouble, so he released it.

Yes, cartoon-like Felix The Catfish is probably dead now.

my craziest moment was flipping rocks in the rahway and watching my 4 year old reach down and barehand a fat ~18" eel right into his bucket and say I GOT IT DAD I GOT IT. I had to have a long talk about grabbing random animals (like snakes) without checking with dad first.

Gotcha. Those things are pretty ferocious and will eat just about anything they can fit in their mouths.

Sounds like something someone would say about their mother-in-law!

Thought I was weird for my relations with the M.I.L.'s
They were both extremely hot in their 40's but I still see them now in their 70's and it's quite discomforting.
Guess I've grown to look pretty disgusting as well. haha
