Wasnt on the boat, but I saw a video of a guy free gaff a bull dolphin. As you would guess, the bull proceeded to try to destroy the entire boat.
Caught a big croaker while fishing for trout; then proceed to catch a trout on the croaker. The strange thing was that the trout was never hooked. The trout's snaggle-tooth was lodged into the meat of the croaker and it was unable to break free. We were able to land both.
On a family summer trip to the rockies (10yo); killed a chipmunk with a rock.
Had to add this one. Tagged an released an ocean-going dolphin (mammal) while soaking hardtail in green canyon. Fishing with circle hooks. They were nibbling off our hardtail. Gave the reel a couple of good turns on the nibble and hooked one accidentally on purpose. Gave the rod to the customer and I had to wire it like a marlin. Successful release.

You have to go from gaff to fish box in one motion or all hell will break loose. It's also good to have someone stand on the fish box after you put it in.

Big bass jumped into the boat in Audubon Park lagoon. I was on my way out when my bro grabbed my belt.

While playing golf I hit a worm burner on a drive and hit a goose in the head killing it.
Caught a ~6lbs bass on a boat lift. When I raised the lift to get the boat out of the water I heard something flopping on the air tanks. Looked down and was surprised to see this big fish. One of the biggest bass I've ever caught.
Was fishing for catfish once when I was pretty young and caught two catfish on a single J-hook.

Cruising near last island, daughter sitting on ice chest up front, flounder jumps in the boat out of no where, hits her in the head and is flopping around in the boat. She wasn't seriously hurt thank goodness.

Reminds me. I recently caught 2 nice specks on 1 topwater cast. I was alone, no one to verify.

caught a 3+' gator with a 5' cast net
punched a giant possum in his mug.
killed a possum with a drawer
killed a coon with the stock of my Benjamin after i shot him out of the tree
that's all i really got but
i caught pop with a treble hook once and whizzed his ear with a 22 trying to let the hammer down after reloading.
pop caught the first squirrel i ever shot with his finger. i shot him out of the tree with my 410 and when he went to pick it up by the tail it latched on to his finger. he was using the same language he used when tryin' to start our pos mower.
we heard some noise outside one night while we were playing pool. dad walks outside with his cue and sees a coon by the trash cans (silver metal back then). it ran off so he went to put the lid back on the can and another one jumped out of the can. he looked some kind of junkyard knight with his trashcan lid shield and his cue stick sword. broke the cue over the coons head while falling backwards.

There was a local guide about 50 yds. away, but he was busy too.
True though.

Had a beagle fetch a rabbit to me once.
It was late in the evening, getting too dark to hunt anymore but the dog was on a trail. Rabbit comes hauling arse past me I barely had time to throw the gun up and squeeze off a shot. He disappeared into a big briar patch. I figured I missed. Dog comes by a couple minutes later, I tried to grab his collar but he got by me. He stops yelping about 30 yards into the briar patch. I hollered and hollered at him to get his butt over here it's time to go. I'm getting pissed because it's almost completely dark and we've still got a hike to get back to the car.
About that time out of the briar patch he trots with a big old swamp rabbit in his mouth, drops it at my feet, and leads the way back to the car.
Never heard of that happening before or since. That was one of the best dogs we ever had.

Some of these tales in here are taller than others.

Was squirrel hunting once and started chasing a big arse fox squirrel that spotted me. He made a jump that he shouldn't have and missed. Fell about 60' and must have hit something hard. He was pretty woozy and disoriented so I just stepped on his head with my boot and put him in my vest. Didn't have to worry about picking bb's out of him.
Also had a litter of kittens get under the hood of my dads jeep one cold morning while going deer hunting. On the drive home we heard all sorts of clattering from them hitting the radiator fan. I've never enjoyed cleaning up a bloody mess so much before.

the coolest catch i've ever seen was while bream fishing with a buddy. he hooked a throw-back sized bream and before he got it to the boat a 9 lb bass hit the bream. the bass got hooked on the bream hook (fishing with an ultra light), fought for 15-20 mins, and i landed him with the net. i never been nervous about landing fish except that once.
buddy mounted it chasing a bream. no one believes us, but its true.
