I caught the same 12# summer run twice...in two casts... broke off the leader to release it the first time, and it bit again...I have a pic somewhere of the damn thing with two globs of eggs in its mouth, one on each side.
I've done it several other times with steelhead and salmon, but that was the only time on back to back casts!
Fish on...
Todd

Saw my partner do it with a summerun on the Cowlitz by Vader. He set the hook and had the fish on for 30-40 seconds. Pulled his line in and the leader was gone. Next cast,fish-on. Landed it with two leaders in it's mouth. He had missed the loop when he tied on the first time. Boy was he pissed when I let it go. He has passed on now but I still chuckle at some of the stuff we pulled on each other.A good fishing partner is just about the hardest type of friend to find.

Yep, both Salmon and Steelhead. I did the same as Todd with a Coho. Caught it the 1st time on bait cut the line let it go retied,re baited next cast same fish. Bonked it! Once I caught the same hen Steelhead 3 times tryin to get the big buck she was with. Never could get him to bite. I think it's pretty common?

Biters are biters.
Non-biters ain't.
Suffice it to say, non-biters suck.

OK I just re-read that last post.... I think I left it wide open for a SOL-ism.
Any takers?
Or should I say biters?

Well I got one for you I was floating down the Hump with one of my body's last year in October and we were back bounceing for Kings then his rod went down and he's like I'm snagged and when you know what about five seconds later my line gose tight and takes off and about three seconds later his supposedly snagged line woke up and it turned out we both have the same twenty pounder. I had it in the right side of the day and he had it in the left in the fish comes up shows off and then handshakes twice and throws both hooks.
Ironic thing is we were just mentioning such instances just minutes before it all happened in the guide was saying how he's never seen a fall Chinook do that. But I guess you can say he's seen it happen now,lol

My brother and I were trolling Lake Cushman back in the late 60's. Both our rods go off at the same time. As we are reeling in we notice our lines coming together back behind the boat. My dad netted a nice size Kokanee with a Triple Teaser hanging our both sides of its mouth.

I caught the same winter run native hen three days in a row, everytime in a different hole. WIERD. Everyday, she was a heck of a fighter. I also caught her fishing bait during brat season.

funny..... first thing that came to my mind was my son (maybe 5 or 6 at the time) & a buddy's daughter sittin in the back of the boat in the marina at Neah (while we went up for lunch) one warm afternoon soaking leftover herring heads & catching something like 13 ratfish (which was actually probably only 3 different fish.) Swore they caught one of 'em with some distinct mark 6 or 7 times - just getting an absolute kick out of it- caught it one last time when we got back just to prove it to us. Certainly not unusual but had to be hands down one of their best fishing memories.

Many times have caught the same fish.
At least three times I have for sure caught the same steelhead on consective casts (once the fish was marked with a tag and twice the fish was identify by its sex, length, and missing scale patch).
One tagged steelhead was caught 8 times over about a month
took part in a bull trout tagging study where I multiple char were caught multiple times. A couple of the more interesting fish was one where there was 4 years between the time I first caught and when I caught it a second time.
Another bull trout I caught the second time on November 2 and caught it again on November 2 a year later behind exactly the same bloulder on the Skagit. It was miles from it was originally tagged and downstream of its probably spawning tributary
In 1983 on the Sauk during the CnR season I hooked and lost the same huge steelhead 3 times over a 1o day period. I'm sure that it was the same fish (several inches longer than anything I have ever caught). It was hooked in the same spot every time, on the same color corkie and broken off on the same brush pile - darn!
Have a ton of such tales
Tight lines Curt

I 've done it More than once on steelhead. Hooked and lost one small 4 +/- lber three times. I know it was the same fish because he jumped all three times. The first one he had someone elses gear hanging out of his mouth. He broke me off on the second attempt and when he jumped and threw me off the third you could see both leaders hanging out of his mouth. Pretty sure I swung and missed on him at least a couple of more times too. My brother has the top story, though. Hooked a silver up in alaska that fought hard all the way to the boat. It pops off the line at the last second and starts to float away just out of reach. Suddenly it catches it breath, shoots towards the boat and hits the tiny peice of bait left on the hooks. One pull and it rolls over and is netted.
