I am a victim of stupidity. Me and my dad go fishing on a nice little jon boat, It is always a great time. We have a little competition of who can catch the most fish or the biggest fish. We just got 2 new rods and I was setting up the new rod while my dad was fishing. In about 5-10 minutes he caught 2 2-3 pound rainbow trout. Feeling like I was getting behind I casted out my rod that was already set up and before I could even let my worm sink he already had another fish on. I set my rod down on holder and quickly reached for the net. When I stood to secure the fish i saw something in the corner of my eye. MY ROD FALLING OUT OF THE the holder. I watched her splash into the lake and begin to plummet down the depths of the lake. Quickly I dug the net into the water and tried to swoop it into the net but I was to late. This has been haunting me ever since. 9/13/24 was the day I lost my beloved first rod.
