Unusual carcasses
Yeah, I knew it was some time before a someone posted their finding of dead human bodies. I always read in the newspaper how fishermen often come cross the bodies of missing people. I certainly hope I don't come across something that horrific. Sad to say that some the findings are left behinds of sadistic people. I often fish Stoney Creek Metropark where Tara Lynn Grant's body was scattered -- it's unnerving to say the least. Dave -- yes, that's the frog you got me. Still haven't caught anything on it.

Wierd Anglers
Once saw a guy catfishing. Each time I walked passed him, he had a fish on. The second time I passed by, I watched and he lost the fish. Afterwards, I asked how he lost it and he showed me his hook -- it was so tiny I had to get real close and squint. LOL Then there's the guy who fishes in between the cracks of the wooden planks on the dock for bluegills. He soon had a small following. Amusing.

Unusual carcasses
I've stumbled upon many animal carcasses on my fishing trips that washed up on the shore: seagulls, ducks, carps, swan or crane (hard to tell ... was really big, white, feathery, and flat), frogs, etc. One day, I came across this huge frog carcass ... I took a picture of it next to my standard sized frog lure. What unusual carcasses have you come across?

Scents do they make a difference.
Can't answer this until I personally try it. But I'm leaning towards -- no, it's just a marketing scheme.

Topwater at all times, but especially at night. Yes, you don't get to see it, but it's just as sweet hearing it.

Removing hooks from weird places
Do the best you can to remove it. If not, it's dinner for the other fishes or yourself.
