I think I could fill this new section on my own!!!
Mum told daughter not to get changed in the car but daughter (10) knew best and wound up the windows to get some privacy (tinted). Managed to catch the top of my rod in the drivers door. I didn't notice and came along, opened the door and snap, broke the top off the rod.
Went fishing next day with daughters new Christmas rod (penance for breaking mine) and my own now slightly shorter rod. Landing a fish I must have raised her rod slightly too high and snap...Oops. 8 Snapper, 1 Trev and $150 for a new rod and $18 to put a new end eye on my rod!!!!!
Prior to Christmas went out fishing and put my sunglasses on top of my hat. Got past the 5 knot marker, nailed it and I could feel my hat coming off but coz thats got a string that goes round my neck I wasn't too worried!!! My friend on the back almost managed to catch them but to no avail. Perscription sunglasses so my first insurance claim minus $150 excess!!!!
I've got more!!!!

loosing stuff
last week I went fishing by myself a couple of times, good trips, but the first one i lost a good rapala knife from on top of the bin as I tilted the ski over to wash hands in water, which was ok cause I always have two, then the next day I went out with one knife, and forgot to clip the lid of the chilli down and it opened up and dumped my other knife out into the muddy, leaving me knife-less. I had the eftpos card on me and knew there was a shop at big bay so pulled my ski up a bit at low tide and walked to the shop, scored a knife for 8 bucks which I was very surprised with. ended well, but was a bit of a pita

Re: I think I could fill this new section on my own!!!
Sorry guys I have to say, I have heard to much lost gear and lost fish stories! A few of us oldy jetskifishoes have learn't the hardway at our expense! so all our tips try not to procrastinate as it will make your trips more fun, that is what we are here for. Now don't try and reinvent the wheel!
This is a plug for my Ultimate Rod Holder, guys who have used it will know, it is well developed, quality product, said to be worth every cent! To save loosing gear and ride as hard as you can this is the option to go for instead of loosing valuable fishing time and money researching and developing kiwi inginuity jobs!
Re: I think I could fill this new section on my own!!!
The ultimate Rod Holder is an awesome setup, cheers Chris
