Or maybe it's because he couldn't handle the situation he put himself in, he lost over $1000 and then left it behind - all without informing anyone.

If I lost that kind of gear, I'd head right over to the police station immediately in hopes someone found it and to be sure another surfcaster didn't find my gear with the thought of me being face down a mile out.

Novenber is the time to hit the Naps. Week before Thansgiving and the Big Girls will stack up around the corner.

I'm sure that all of the self-styled internet experts here in this thread can tell you--they've doped it all out without even being there. Hell, he was using a bailed reel, after all.

I thought it was the single speed Schwinn bike that did me in. Years later I figured out that the guys who talked about it the most were mostly hallucinating.

Are you the guy?

I have certainly found myself in very scary situations - most due to me being stupid.

Ahhhhhh...let it pass. After all, I think someone just compared me to a blind squirrel looking for his nuts.........which except for the bushy tail probably isn't too far from the truth.
