[QUOTE="TNReb, post: 5641667, member: 676"] Yeah.. I'm talking about myself. Was fishing a ledge today. Boat was in 60ft water, casting to 10ft. Caught a fish... got the hook out.. laid the rod down.. dealt with the fish... turned around to pick up my rod and it wasn't there. Apparently I laid it over the side of the boat. I. WAS. ILL. I'm usually pretty careful about laying my rods down. I would love to have had a camera running to see what happened. Another story.. I have one of the after market trolling motor nuts. On St Clair this week, I was idling on the big motor with the trolling motor down. I mean IDLING.. barely putting along. I turned off the big motor and went up front and stepped on the trolling motor. Nothing. Boat wouldnt turn or move. I pulled the trolling motor out of the water and found that the prop was missing. Apparently there was enough counter rotation by idling with it down that it came off, along with the prop! I had a spare prop and prop nut, so it was a quick fix. A hundred dollar bill down the drain though! [/QUOTE]
