Most people reel in normal fish, but once in awhile I've been known to reel in something different. We were deep sea fishing once and I released my line with a lure on it, so that it dropped all the way to the bottom. I ended up reeling up a starfish. The workers on the boat seemed to love that one. I sort of wish I could have kept it.
One of our favorite spots to fish is at the lagoon. We fish from shore and can wade in and fish in the water if the tide is right. One time I knew I had caught something, and it put up quite a fight. I reeled it in and it freaked me out when I was looking towards the water and I saw all these tentacles coming towards the surface. It was an octopus!! Now THAT was cool! No, we didn't keep it, but it's one of those fun stories to tell people.
Have you ever caught anything besides your typical fish?
