Yes it was

And of course you put it back on the same rock you pulled it from. . :smt003

I caught a ski-boat anchor once, fishing in the Delta near Pittsburgh, didn't take a pic.. Looked like they tried to use that yellow floating line, I managed to snag the 18" of what was left of the rope and dragged it to the surface. before it broke the water I was wondering if I had a dead body on the line,, seen some sketchy sh*t in Pittburgh...
-
Three monkey-face prickle-backs if I had caught a big 1 first I would have released the small 1,However by the time I caught the large one's the tiny seeming 1 where dead as a rock!.Yet all were absolutely delicious & fed 8 persons w/enough left over meat for two large Breakfast taco's!

From last June. Needlefish, should be called nuisance fish, because that's what they are. They twist and roll when hooked, wrapping themselves up and tangling line. Wormy and not fix for human consumption.
