Friday - Pay $9 for a pen. Nice all weather pen that will write upside down, etc.

Tuesday - Take said pen and make entry into fishing log. Attempt to place pen and log back into their storage area. Knock pen from notepad in process, causing it to fall into 30' of water.

Fall rate of said pen was greater than 1' per second, meaning all I had time to do was sadly watch it sink into the depths.

Such is my life...

Been there before, Only it was reel parts, expensive hooks, varius other items and even a cell phone. :

Sorry my ex wife was not writing with the pen whenit sunk 30' under water. :'(

They have a pill to help you cope with the lose of that pin. ;D

Burley, as a baitmaker you have peaked my curiosity, just what kind of action does a $9 pen have on the fall?

It was a slow tight wobble. ;D

This was the pen. Just drove 1100 miles to get it. :'(

FYI pencils float, and you can get hundreds of them for $9.00.
