Here's something I never thought would happen, and I have had it happen three times. On the lower EF Lewis me and a buddy were fishing eggs and hooked the same fish on both baits. We were both side drifting and walking about 5 feet apart from each other and he was the lower guy and he said there's a fish and about 2 seconds later I said there's a fish and we both set the hooks thinking they were two different fish and while fighting the fish both lines came together and were in the fishes mouth and both were swallowed.
Another time we were backtrolling jetdivers kwikfish for springers on the lewis and had one springer grab both kwikfish, and the other time we were boondogging summer runs, three guys all eggs and they both hooked the same fish. Talk about the all time tag-teams on fish.

Another wierd thing also came to mind, about 6 years ago in april we were fishing for early summer runs on the EF of the Lewis and I hooked a winter native on a sandshrimp, landed it took it's picture, and released it. After tying back up I made another cast with a sandshrimp in the same spot and hooked the same fish with my owner in one side that I had cut off and the other owner in the other side of it's mouth. Talk about the all-time dumb fish.
