I dropped a fresh open jar of tied roe yesterday.. chummed up the run pretty good lol

my brand new rapala meadium heavy ice combo that got dragged down a hole by a pike. always keep an eye on your rod!!! lol
 
dropped my phone in the drink yesterday :cry: apperantly its waterproof :mrgreen: oh ya an abu garcia veritas and revo inshore baicast rod/reel in the atlantic ocean
 
I got motion sick when the waves picked up on Couchiching and lost my lunch over the side of the boat. Then my sunglasses fell in and sank. Double whammy.
 
too many to count! iPhone, couple of Bluetooth headsets and ..I stopped counting lures!
 
1986 chevy cavalier-used it at the cottage to move boats around-no ebrake--boat launch....bye bye.
 
My 250 camera on Friday, and thirteen year old skunk k7 that they don't make any more to a salmon few weeks back.
 
My brand new (at the time) armani glasses to island lake, drunk tryna get off the canoe on to shore.

I am always stupid cautious now. My Phone and walet go into a ziploc FREEZER bag with tripple seal. That has a float strung to it and also a key ring that I attach via a nylon cord to my vest.

I don't take my phone out on the water at all, too scared to drop it.

Bait- a dozen worms, right when the fish started to bite. Jars of fake eggs, dozen tied row, I even dropped my entire hand tackle box when I reached down to wash my hands and my pocket was still open. Water was too milky and fast to try and find it. Floats have fallen in the same manner. Thats when I decided to replace my blasted vest!
 
well not the drink, but a full box of 150 flies to the streets of oshawa

they were flies bought from reel flies at the sportsman show this year that still aren't available on their site

You HAVE to explain that story? Flew out the car window??
 
Case of hooks #6-#18 octopus while I was setting up first thing in the morning and the fishing was hot !! Missed the pocket and they went in the drink !! At least I got two hooks Pulitzer before I lost them
 
i dropped my new to me at the time kyrocera cell phone down an ice hole 12 years ago on simcoe into 120feet of water. Since then i never answer my phone while fishing. just wait till I'm back on shore and check messages. Also my new phone is in a water proof otter box and car key remote in a zippy in my river pack.
 
LG 3D Phone last spring and its replacement took a swim back in September but somehow still works..somewhat..that and my go too XRAP first cast of the day must have had a loop around the top guide over hand cast and snap and away she flew..
 
Sahara 500 on my ultra light southbend 2 winters ago with rod holder fishing a stocked rainbow backlake.... Managed to jig up rodholder but not the rod... :neutral:
