Jim Grouch Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 I think my worst has been a pair of polarized Oakley sunglasses. I was half tempted to dive in after them but realized I had my wallet, keys & cell phone on me. Unfortunately I just watched them disappear as they fell deeper and deeper. Quote
basspro215 Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 should have used a strap to keep them on your neck ;D Quote
Ineedanewscreenname20170204 Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 If you had some nice polarized sunglasses on you could have watched them fall even longer without all that glare... Quote

Helluva_Engineer Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 I once literally dropped the pliers in instead of the fish. I then went to reach for em and dropped my hat that had my sunglasses and a custom croakie on it(why did i have them on my hat is still beyond me). I tied on a jigging spoon and managed to get the hat back, but gave up on the other stuff after a while. Quote
fishizzle Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 I retrieved my buddies carrot stick baitcaster combo 3 weeks after he lost it in 10' water by dragging around a treble hook for 45 minutes. I lost a st. croix rod. It just fell out of my hands then jumped in to grab it and luckily I got it. Quote
florida strain Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 ;DI've lost sunglasses, cell phone, hats, rods, and the worst was myself , here is the short story, as a teenager me and my friend went out in his jon boat .we decided we wanted to make a short run and i was the motor man, standing i pulled and pulled on the rope, it finally cranked at full throttle with the tiller all the way to the side. i got slung out instantly the boat did about three laps around me buzzing by my head before my friend could get back to it to cut it off , i laughed, my friend laughed , and the 10 fisherman watching laughed Quote
Pitchinkid Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 Had a carrot stick with a Diawai Adv. do a somersalt off of Mcbootens Skeeter. Luckily the rod sock was still on and it had an air bubble in it. Circled around and picked it up. Alot of Strike King and Renegade polo. glasses. Thats why i but the cheap ones, because i know im gonna lose them. The Beast was showing me a new swimbait he bought on his boat and pretty much just threw it in the water. I thought it was supposed to be a slow sink, but it looked like a fast to me. We lost a dog on Jimzees boat. Poor Brody was wanting to lick a fish and got to close to the edge. One hat on the Kanwha river in WV. Quote
Bassin_0502 Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 My first (cheap) baitcasting set up, trolled for about an hour and got it back. Several hats, usually they floated long enough to circle back and gab them though. Top half of a two piece rod, came back as I cranked, startled the hell out of me though. Quote
The Guy Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 A teenage mutant ninja turtle action figure when I was 5, it was Michelangelo I was upset; Most recently my cell phone Quote

bass or bass ? Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 Last summer while night fishing, I replaced the 12 volt rechargable battery from my spotlight and left the discharged one on top of the food and drink cooler. Later when I went into the cooler for a drink I heard a loud kerplunk. Bye bye battery! Quote
sage Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 My worst was a Sage Sp 3pc. flyrod with Lamson lite speed reel total cost was over $1000.00 watched it fall out of the boat and rip down a river in Colorado. Just pulled the back up out and finished the day out. Alot of rounds were bought for me at the bar that night. lol (Now) I have lost other things like sun glasses and cheaper rods , But my Sage is by far the worst. Quote
