When my son was 5 or6 years old he just HAD to go fishing one Saturday so we went out to a community pond. He wanted to use a diving plug as we weren't fly fishing then. On about is 7th cast he felt resistance so he set the hook. He landed a size 9 tennis shoe. It was a garish looking thing with checkered racing flags on the sides. I laughed so hard my eyes were watering. I had seen people catch boots while watching Saturday morning cartoons as a kid and it brought back all those memories. He didn't see the humor in it since it had fouled HIS hook.
