My wife finds plugs in the surf every year when we go to Nantucket, but none were ours.

A couple years ago I was flyfishing an estuary and lost my fly on a backcast in some heavy grass. It was when I just started flyfishing the salt, so I had like 3 flies... so I spent 20 minutes or more searching for it. No dice.

3 weeks later I was back at the spot and was just walkin' out to my casting spot and I see the fly sittin' there on a big blade of grass. The area is flooded at high tide, so I was surprised it was still there.

Whoohoo... the fly has never produced a fish, but I figure its a lucky fly anyway.
