Let's take a poll!
« on: Mar 05, 2015, 10:12 AM »
Who lost or knows someone who lost something through the ice this year and what was it?  My manager, she lost a brand new laser auger through the 3rd hole she drilled with it.

My fishing buddy lost a $300 pair of prescription glasses.  Marked the spot on the GPS and will hopefully find them this spring.  (only 7 ft of water, no current)

Same day he dropped a ice cleat down the hole without realizing it, probably while using his foot to sweep away the ice shavings after drilling the hole, then caught it on his jig a little bit later.  That did not make him feel better about losing his glasses

I have never lost anything of real value down a hole.  Lures, hooks and weights mostly.

Lets see...lost my buddies bottom half auger piece threw the hole, a brand new jiffy propane. Luckily it was in 6 FOW and came back the next day with a magnet, after half hour hooked up on it! Last week same buddy dropped iphone down the hole.

Lost my cell phone down the hole a couple years ago. Now I always put the speaker on and set it down inside the sled. The only drawback is that people think I'm talking to them as they pass by !

how the heck does an auger (the whole thing) fit down a hole before you can grab it ??? ??? ???

And the only thing I lost this year was a trout worth $480 in the Dead Bait Jeff derby. A 9" perch won instead :'( :'( :'( :'(

A month ago while packing up to leave I decided to text the wife and let her know I was leaving . I then placed the phone ( new Galaxy S5 ) in my jacket pocket instead of the bib pocket and guess what ? yup ...down the hole it went when I bent over to pull up my transducer. Told the wife its all her fault, that didn't fly though ....lol ..Lesson learned !!!!
