was my first (shakespere) rod with a mitchell 300 reel...
i just loved that thing.....
but one day ...a terrible thing happened...very strange
the type of thing, that seems like, only happens to "me"
i rowed out in the rowboat to the boston whaler
and placed the rod into the whaler leaning against
the windshield with the flat square boat cushion
sitting on (over hanging) the bench seat and the
butt of the rod was near the backrest...
on the cushion.
well...as i stepped into the whaler a boaters wave
rocked both boats and i stepped in quickly to avoid
loosing my balance and stepped on the edge of the
boat cushion launching the rod into the air and it sunk.
i tried diving for it several times but had no luck.
