Things you've lost or broke
Whats the most expensive item you broke or lost this season while fishing?
So far i've lost an iPhone with no insurance available, broke 1 surefire flashlight and lost another one on a different set of rocks.
I've heard stories of some VS pliers being found on a beach so it got me thinking about what others have lost while fishing.
