1 day a buddy and I decided to go fishing in Florida. It was a stunning day and we had been heading in my friend’s boat, so we acquired up at four AM and was on our way for about an hour’s generate. We lastly acquired there and backed the boat into the h2o, I do want to say 1 thing, there are some primitive boat ramps in Florida.

Original thing I noticed was all the alligators, now I am not frightened of gators but I do respect them. My friend’s boat has 1 problem, the socket exactly where the trolling motor plugs in did not work, so, you had to wire it straight to the battery, which was no large offer.

Nicely, I could not wait to get heading, I had just purchased a brand new rod and reel and this was heading to be my initial time trying it out. The reel was a new Shamano and the rod was 1 that I compensated much more for than I ought to have at the time. So, I was thrilled to see how smooth this mixture would cast and how easy it would be to use.

I laid my new rod and reel down by the edge of the boat and was ready to sit in the back of the boat and get heading. My buddy asked if I would get the battery for the trolling motor and set it up by him so he could wire it up, I stated “particular”.

Nicely, I bent over to get the trolling motor and the heel of my shoe went correct under the rod and then my brand new fishing rod and reel went in the canal we had been fishing.

I attempted and attempted to get my rod and reel back, I imply how far could it have went, it just went in. I even contemplated on heading in following it even though there had been hundreds of gators.

After about thirty minutes of trying I arrived to realize I was not heading to get it back, the current ought to have taken it far, far absent and I left it for the gators. Mr. Alligator, Merry Xmas To You.
