Below is a graphic of exactly how it looked after I caught the fish. I have been fishing many times but have never seen or heard of anything like this in my life. |
On June 8, 2003, I went fishing for a third time that year in a same place by the river by myself and I caught 14 more good size bullhead during the day. Yet, I have a little story that happened to me that day that you may like to hear. I love fishing and I go because it helps me with my depression and with my disability and job situation and everything else. At the time I had been feeling like God had abandoned me and I was really down. So, while fishing I talked to my guardian angel inside of myself. I asked him if he was even there. The reason being is I went fishing to catch fish and I just missed two fish three feet from shore in the first half hour. So, I recast my line out and said to my angel again, "If you are there please give me a sign." Suddenly my line went straight out on my pole and as the river is not very wide in this area I could see where the end of my line was and it seemed to me I saw two fish surface in the area that I had the bite. Yet, I said to myself, I must be seeing things because I only have one hook. So, when I reeled it in I had two bullhead on one line with one hook. One of the bullhead was on the hook while the other bullhead further up the line had the line wrapped around him two or three times. This wrapping was done with such force that the edges of the mouth slivered and the wrapped line was held in place by those slivered edges. This wrapped line kept the mouth completely shut of that bullhead and yet when I went to unwrap the line it wasn’t much trouble pulling out. I believe my prayer was answered. The sizes of the bullhead I caught that day were: |
