Ever release a fish and have it swim right back to you??? Check out this video.  Looks like a trout of some sort running away from a Pike.

In the salt, we usually put a hook through the nostrils before we send it back out...

Had a cuda take a jack from my hand as I was releasing it once, way to close to my hand, luckily, I can still count to 10...

Cool ~

Wow that's incredible. "Don't put me back in there with that thing!" Northerns are so aggressive it's crazy.

I've never seen that, but I have had a hawk swoop down and take a freshly released bass about 30ft from my boat.

Awesome thanks for the post!

You should see the bloodbath when you release a 120-130lb tarpon only to have a 12ft hammerhead bite it right in half...the shark missed me by less than two feet...i needed some new shorts after that

When wading once I had a huge smallmouth latch onto the side of a 1.5 lb smallmouth I was reeling in. He had to have been 6 lbs. when the smaller fish was released he darted straight for the shallows. I was hoping to catch 7.5 lbs of fish at once.

Thats pretty cool!

caught a trout fishing for bass on a senko, and when I threw it back it was quickly chased down by a pack of bass and consumed.  Now I fish swimbaits.

Last week on a charter trip. My client says hey I got a better fish on. I look at his line and see a dink. I tell him thats a tiny fish. He says no the bigger fish is below. The I see it. It was a 6 1/2 lb bass on the end of the line. So a little bass ate his senko, then he set the hook and the larger bass ate the dink bass. It was pretty cool.

yeah, I should have done that with that trout, it had a 4/0 skipgap hook in it's mouth, I'm sure that would have worked just fine had I just left the trout in the water, but didn't know that was gonna happen.

That is a great example of how prey gets pinned and becomes vulnerable. I have had bass literally almost beach themselves to get wakebaits. There are some good lessons there if ya look.

I watched a Hank Parker episode of him catching a smallmouth on St. Claire and the line got really heavy. He thought he hooked a sturgeon. When he got it up to the boat, it was a 50+ inch musky that had bitten his 3lb smallie. The musky finally let go as Hank leaned over the side of the boat!

 I caught this little guy on a 13" smallmouth that I was reeling in. I managed to get it in the net without even getting a hook in him.
