Had a crazy occurrence while walking some local canals with Raul from Monster 3x Baits and his son Anthony! We had live cichlids with us and stumbled upon a freshwater snook laid up on the edge of the canal. Upon catching it though we realized that the snook had been wrapped around five times by thick stainless steel wire leader!! We have no idea how the wire wrapped itself so bad onto the fish but it had been there so long that the fish's tissue had already grew around the wire and the wire had become a part of the snooks body. We were able to successfully cut the wire and slide it out of the fish without harming it and he swam off strong!! We are still not completely sure how the fish got tangled in the wire but it is a great lesson to keep garbage out of our waters and pick up any garbage you see while you are out there!
