Question

Have you ever caught a bat on a fighing pole wile casting your line at night ?

Answer 1

No, thank God! I hate bats. I know they are great for bugs but when we had one fly at us in the house then found a whole family in the basement they just give me the creeps. As long as they stay away from me I'm ok. But if I had to get one off my line...I think I would cast, cut the line and let it fly. Wouldn't care if it was my favorite lure.

Answer 2

I've never landed one but I have had bats take my fly off of the water and drop it when they realize it's not real. Actually, it's quite common on some of the ponds I fish on as the area is full of bats and the best fishing is right at sundown which is when the hungry bats come out.

Answer 3

No but I've snagged a gull in the same way. It was a bit messy.

Answer 4

Yes!

But I fly fish more than most.

Answer 5

No, but it sounds pretty fun. I might try it someday.

Answer 6

No
