Things you found when fishing?

Post by Sebb » Sat Apr 20, 2019 10:35 pm

Apart of rubbish, what have you found when fishing?

I remember my first item found was a lip grip, was still in good condition and I still have it now, that was like 7-8 yrs ago.
In the last few trips, I found a hand net, a plier, hook removal tool thing, zerek lure, sinkers.

There was a day I saw someone on kayak paddling through pylons in Docklands to get some snagged lures and rigs.

Imagine snorkeling around Flinders pier or Portsea etc, will get a lot of squid jigs. A bit of WD40 and hook sharpener, restored.

Found many pairs of scissors, knives, sinkers, I once found the lot. Including a few rods and reels with a couple of tackle boxes as well.

A tackle box full of plastics, a lantern. You snooze you lose
