Dumped Rod

[chrome/22]

Knocked my single hand swinging rig off the back of the watermaster. Went on a S&R mission the next day but no bueno. So looking for a replacement on these items.

Calling Rod S---, a gentleman who dredged up a rod, reel and line from Amber Lake after it went zipping out of someone's Hopper-II. Rod snagged the rod a year later and reunited it with its owner. Good luck!

Never know, might still get dredged up.

My home tailwater river currently has this algae "Didymosphenia geminata" known as (didymo) in the slower sections. So it's going to be enveloped eventually with that crap....

Consider using a foam floatie. I’ve lost a rod or two out in the lake, but none since using the foam. Three for $5 with the boating stuff in Walmart. That foam orange thingy will float a road and a heavy reel.

I have also lost a rod & reel off the back of a Watermaster in a lake. After @Cowlitz Bottomfeeder first posted about these foamies I bought 3. The float doesn't interfere with casting or line management. I used some dual-sided velcro - hook & loop cable ties to snugly secure the float. An old 6 weight IMX rod & reel with a sinking line floats high.
