Default odd catch

Sometime in the 80's while flycasting to schools of small brook trout on Lake Annette in Jasper ( I think) my fishing partner hollered " Ive got a good one". I hustled over to help him as we had not caught many Brook trout back then. Imagine our surprise when instead of a trout he reels up an orange golf ball. This lake has a very rocky bottom and as the ball was pulled in it bounced along and played out like a fish. The fly had lodged in a small crack in the ball and then held true( one in a million). I laughed till it hurt then carried that golf ball in my tackle box for years.
