| You guys/gals ever set the hook, miss the fish, and then find a tooth stuck in your jerkbait? I have had it happen 3 or 4 times. Although I would rather catch the fish, it is always pretty cool when it happens. I feel like if the teeth are big enough I should make a necklace or something out of them, kind of like that guy in the movie "Jaws"! At least I know I gave a hard enough hook set! |

Location: Des Moines IA | Had a tooth stuck in my Weagle, while out with the muskie nut! Was quite a site to see. Wasn't even close to big enough to save.

Location: WI | I had this happen twice so far. I thought of the necklace idea also, I think the necklace would make a great conversation piece.

| I was up on Eagle Lake a few years back when Spence Petros had a hit and reeled in an eyeball. My bro and i thought it was a joke for a bit. I think he said it was around a 40-42"er. So if you catch a one eyed musky on Eagle Lake, you know why. |

| I added four teeth to my "collection" last season that were brought in on baits. Sad thing is...those four teeth from last season were in the front console of my truck all summer long. I kept meaning to put them into the 'lil 35mm film canister that I keep the others in...but....forgot and eventually...those teeth got swept up in the vacuum at the auto detailer shop! DOH! Oh well...I'm sure there'll be others. |

| I remember my first tooth came from one of the first nice fish I caught.
It ate a suick about 70ft from the boat. Some huge jumps and corkscrews and then a 45inchers' tooth as a momento. It was stuck in the bait for a while cause I think I found it a month or so later, lost it though shortly thereafter. |

Location: WI | Pink Taco front with alittle "hair" on the tail!! I made a topwater for one of my goofball friends that is shaped like a d!ck with a jitterbug lip and two round balls on the back with hooks. The stuff this guys comes up with. He uses it too! I don't know why I just told you guys this, hopefully it gets some laughs.

Location: north central wisconsin | Lots of teeth stuck into surface baits and jerks(Reef Hawgs are a good one for it for some reason) over the years. i save the ones I get if I can. The one that really makes me wonder is one from this past July. Fishing GB and had a big one eat a spinner biat my buddy made for me. Three head shakes to let me know she was big, and a run, then gone. The biggest tooth I've ever seen was stich right to the hook of the spinnerbait. The gums of the tooth held it to the hook. Must have hurt....LOL |

Location: Chicago, Beverly | up to three or four either found in the boat after releasing a fish(our guess is stuck to lure and fell out of lure when tossed on floor after unhooking) and one found on a bait after trolling for a bit.. thought we snagged weeds..guess we did not .. possibly a gar's tooth though based on shape.. |
