Saturday morning mrs johnr and myself hit the water early. We have three hot spots to check out with confirmation results from friends the day before. The fishing at spot one produces 3 right away with a good one outa the wife. Spot two was slow, we head to our third spot, get set up with lines in, good song on the radio, cooler with a few cold ones in it, and Mrs johnr gets a hit, I head back with the net, as my rod bends over. I head back to the front of the boat to set my hook, and the pole breaks in two, and falls from my hand into the lake.
I somehow managed to grab it out of the water as it is going down, the mrs pulls in a nice eater, I save my rod from a watery grave, and just now had Scheels replace it with a shiny new one

That's is all

I was reminded of my days at elephant park, it all turned out good.
the moral of the story came down to the luck of the events. I enjoy fishing as much as a french whore, but saving a pole is golden. If a burrito came with extra change back rather than extra cheek fat a balance would be evident.
A "man's word" is a happy day.

About two weeks ago I caught someone's Cabelas DepthMaster rod and reel combo. Sometimes one persons bad luck is anothers good luck. Kind of like when you found that floating depth finder in Mobridge.

Not where I'd like to be

I know a guy that has caught two rods off the bottom in his lifetime. One was a G Loomis.
I've never caught one, but I haven't lost one either (yet). Once time was close. I dove in and grabbed it about 4 feet down.

That's why a guy should never has his phone in his pocket while fishing!

I think you are going to get the broken rod award at the end of the year at the pace you are breaking rods....wonder if Vollmer can get a sticker made up and you can proudly display it on your boat. I'd be the first one to nominate you for that award....lol
Hey, Vollmer any chance of giving out novelty awards on the site....just a suggestion.

When you can't sleep and tried counting sheep...count walleyes....good day all.
