Bad Day On The Rock

Caught one (1) smallmouth (13") on a black buzz bait. Unhooked, snapped a pic just to prove it, released smallie back to the water. Not paying attention after the release, Brandy and I kind of back floated into a submerged log, we flipped, lost two (2) rod combos, and my OLD Fuji XP-60 camera that WAS once again working, and also a small tackle box with some stuff that I never use but had planned on using. The two rod combos were nothing special, one was a GM special, the other a BP special. Was really happy to realize that the one thing I did keep a hold of was my yak paddle. Would have sucked getting back without that.

Looks like I'll be closing out the season slinging the fly rod.

Laugh all you want,

I'm just happy to be alive.

PS - The wife laughed and called me an idiot when I told her, so that turned out good.
