lost fly rod set up last year at gooseberry

Hi I know this is probably not going to do anything but what the hell I'll give it a try. Last year July 2010 I lost a Temple Fork Outfitters 9wt fly rod and reel at Gooseberry Island in Westport, Ma. The whole setup was in a tan hard shell case. If anyone has any info please let me know. God bless....

I FOUND IT!!!!!!
It is sitting behind Westport Bait and Tackle.
36 ft yellowfin center console with triple 300 Merc 4 strokes.
If yours had a FLIR system on it, then this is it!!!!!
Send me a check for 295k and I'll have it shipped to you.
What a boat. Even my pops was impressed with it.......

You can give it too, you can stay then

waiting for the SOB who picked up my T3 909 in the Fishermen's Parking Lot on Chappy a few years ago to have some b#$%s and return the rod, which had a brand new wide arbor V reel on it. F'in thief.

Hey a guy who can take a bb and give it back. I second the motion. You stay!! You're a good guy and truthfully, I hope you find your rod. I have a 10 w sage you can borrow.

Thanks Piemma but I bought a lamiglass 9wt from ebay shortly after losing my tfo...I guess it was my way of consoling myself...lol
Truthfully I have never caught anything with it. I have yet to find my self in a situation were stripers are only 40 feet from me while I stand in the surf and are hanging around while I fumble with trying to get the fly out to them...

Good spot for it where you lost your rod, just below the portaJohns. Usually lots of Hickory Shad in there as well.

Try fishing some backwater tidal rivers. Much easier way to start and get the hang of throwing bigger flies.
