fish memory

[lunkertaker]

I have caught bluefish with a jig still in their mouth...most likely from the same trip and boat

Zero memory for blues

Freshwater species tend to get spooked and hide; however, I have caught a couple of LMB with an old hook in the mouth over the years

My buddy and I caught the same carp 3 days in a row once. We've had lots of other recaptures too. I have another buddy who caught his PB 22lb pike twice through the ice a year apart.
