Gear you've lost over board over the years......

About one year ago

I was in a little 15' open style boat fiberglass with a 18 hp Nissan tiller. couple of my buddies and my step son wanted to go fishing. so I pulled a little sun fish sailboat (with no mast) I had, so the 4 of us could go out in the everglades. one of my buddies decided to stand up to piss off the side of the sun fish. well It flipped gators just yards away. my 15 year old stepson literally walked on water to get in the other boat scared WHITE, while my buddy tried to gather items and flip boat back over.

long story short we lost:

2 rods and reels (Wal-Mart) $60
2 allium oars that i thought would float $50
18 bottles of bud light (i saved gps coordinates) $13
1 brand new zippo $45

And my step sons dignity $priceless:embarsed:
 
A pair of Costa Del Mars
A Pair of Oakleys
A pair of Serengittis
probably 2 dozen hats
a chum bucket
a cast net
2 anchors
a boat ladder
an okuma reel and a carbon fiber rod, the reel smoked fighting a Bonita and locked up, Pulled back hard on the rod with no drag and the rod exploded in my hand, threw the damn thing in the ocean
the left curtain on my enclosure
life jackets
2 landing nets
2 gaffs
286 cups of coffee
my lunch
the blues
any though of a bad day
