Spence called me right after it happened. Amazing story.

Maybe someone could tell it to us so we could make a little more out of this thread?:uhuh:

Apparently some guy lost all his rods and reels off the top of his car. Yak stayed put. I believe Spence ran over all of the guys gear

You would think the guy would have used leashes for his gear...

It was certainly lashed down at least...the problem was he was doing 80+ mph. Thank god the yak didn't let go...The sound of all those rods and reels crunching under my car was painful to hear. Thankfully I don't see any damage to my vehicle.

And then on the way home I was stuck for an hour just east of Groton. Good size boat flipped upside down on 195.

Not a nice day for water sports on the highway.

did he have some kind of rod rack on the car or were they just tied to the roof rack? I am thinking of getting a roof top rod rack and wonder if one failed so I can avoid it!
