Found drill battery on wawasee
« on: Feb 11, 2018, 01:10 PM »
If any one is missing a drill battery, I found one on wawasee.  Post here and describe the battery and where on the lake it was lost.  I would like to get it back to its owner.

Pretty good.  Had to hole hop a bit but probably got 45 crappie and gills between 8 and noon.  Threw back a ton of small and borderline fish too.
 The walking out, hole hoping and walk in were no fun.  I will post some pics when I clean them.  24 gills and 19 crappies.

Still no one has claimed the battery.  They are not cheap and run about 80 - 90 bucks each so I know whoever lost it is not happy.  Spread the word if you know people that fished Wawasee late last week.

There's a group on Facebook that includes Wawasee that's pretty active. It's Indiana Ice Fishing

Do you get on Facebook? If not I can post it and your contact info. 
I live in the midwest now but have fond memories of fishing in New England as a kid.

You are a standup guy wax. We have had our spats in the past, but i know you are just the type of sportsman to do such a good deed as this. And we just see it as the right thing to do!!!! ;D

I have posted it on FB, here and will keep trying to find the owner.  Maybe I will run into the person who lost it out there.  I know I would not be happy if I lost one of my batteries for my Milwaukee drill and would hope someone would try to find the owner.

Good on you to work to get it back to the owner. 
For the rest of us.... I try and use mailing labels with my name and phone number on a lot of my stuff.   I know i'm not the most careful or responsible with my gear.  But if you lose it a simple sticker with a name and number may help get it back.
