Down the Hole

[Boss Hogg]

OK. Now that ice season is nearly over, what did you loose down the hole? Every year somebody is crying the blues about something. This year I did pretty good. I only lost a 4" rapala fillet knife. If I would have moved a little faster I wouldn't even had lost that, but I thought the wood handle would float. Not. So, what did you loose?

If a man speaks, and his wife isn't around to hear him, is he still wrong?

Lost my cell phone one evening in 30 fow. Caught it the next afternoon with an airplane jig. (Treble hook sunk deep into the leather case.) The phone never worked again, but I was able to save my SIM card and put in another phone.

lost my Ipod Nano and a portable speaker that was connected to it. It hurt watching that go down on the Vex

[fiskyknut]

All I lost was a pink and white AEjr and a gold/chartruese Frostee.....Darn Pikes.

Alas finally a season where things were'nt lost for me by others or their kids for a change!!!

That is the worst isn't it? I seem to loose something every year. It's usually later in the season when I get a little to sure of myself. This year I lost a Genz stick combo. I watched it sink on my vex too.

[Ryan_V]

was a good year for me also on the loosing things area...only one multi tool was what I saw sink to the bottom of mille lacs this year!!

[harvey lee]

Couple nice walleyes.

[basssmasher*]

my pride cuz I couldnt find any eyez for Harvey on LQP

[harvey lee]

They just didnt want to play Tim. Next year or this summer we will hit it and pay those eyes back.

[Kylersk]

29" walleye before I got to get a picture of her. Had her out of hole, measured twice, but when I went to get a picture, she flopped and went right down the hole.

[basssmasher*]

I'm ALL for that!!

Was watching a movie one morning on Mille Lacs when I heard a "whoosh", looked up & my st. croix rod & reel was not sitting on the bed anymore . I got to the hole in time to watch it sink down to 20 ft on some gravel. I could see the chrome of the reel on the bottom. I grabbed my other rod, tied on my biggest spoon and snagged it on the first try. Best part was, when I got it up the hole, the rod tip was a wobblin', I ended up reeling in a nice 13" perch. Bet I couldn't do it again if you gave me a hundred tries

I lost a ST. Croix rod and reel down the hole this year too. I never got it back even jigging a treble off the bottom. Oh, well, those rod and reel combo's are junk anyways. I sure was sick when it happened, though!

I had the Lowrance Expedition hit the hole after handing it to my dad and he dropped it. I was quick enough with the hands though and grabbed it before falling out of reach.

I lost the battery and power cable for my MarCum VS350 on the second day I had it out. Doh....

[Sandmannd]

Nothing expensive. I took a buddy out and he had a hangover. He bought some brats to cook on the ice. I got the water boiling and grabed the brats. When to open them and shot up in the air and right in the hole. A very Jordan like shot. He was [PoorWordUsage]ed cause he was starvin and hung over, but I couldn't stop laughing. Made him some Rama and all was almost better.

I was fortunate, didn't lose anything. Friend of mine dropped his phone w/i the first hour of being out on the ice for the year. Angrily, i had to snag a few beer cans off the bottom that someone **accidently** throw down while i was fishing. Was lucky though and got them all!

[Eric Wettschreck]

The only thing I care about that I lost was a couple nice fish. I threw my buddies cell phone down the hole, however. I hate cell phones ringing in the fish house.

[iffy]

I dropped a quarter down the spear hole by accident. Had to throw another 75 cents down to make it worth goin in after.

[vitalshot5]

Boilerguy....He must be a real good buddy......way to pollute our lakes with cellphones....I'm sure the battery will do great things for the fish population

[Eric Wettschreck]

Does this mean you're not coming fishing with me? For the record, he is a real good buddy.

I'm not going to get into an arguement with you, but if you've driven on lakes for a couple of years, way to pollute our lakes with dripping vehicle fluids. If you've ever relieved yourself on the ice, way to pollute our lakes with raw sewage.

Take a breath.

[snowman678]

By that logic, we may as well all leave our empty 1lb. cylinders, blocking for our permanents, garbage or whatever else out on the ice, after all everyone else is polluting.

[Eric Wettschreck]

Or, we could have a laugh at ourselves and not ruin a pretty cool topic with preaching.

If you wish to do the latter please do so via e-mail. My address is in my profile. Don't ruin the fourm.

[Caesarfishinguytoo]

My buddy lost his unattended ice rod down the hole. I said just wait one of us might catch it and sure enough his son thought he was getting one and when his lure got to the hole he had his dad's pole. Grabbed the pole and sure enough the walleye was still on, but wouldn't you know it, that got off at the hole too!!

Oh well - he was happy to get his ice combo back!!!

Are you SERIOUS?

I think Boilerguys first comment was sarcasm...not logical thinking. Let's try to not hijack this thread anymore. I think it is bad for this environment...
