funniest things caught

I caught this large freshwater snail. I have caught three or four of them in the past few years while fishing my DT6 lures against rip-rap.

Do those snails make a very tasty escargot? I have pulled in two freshwater mussels, but I don't think we have any snails that are that big.

I think freshwater snails carry a deadly parasite. I turned them all loose. I looked up the snail on the internet and found the species but the name was too wild for me to remember that. When I caught the first one, I really thought it was a fluke. But after catching so many now, I guess the DT6 has just the right shape to knock one loose and hook it.
