I have gone back to the cove where I lost my GlX/TDZ combo several times.  I ran into my young friend who said he had his dad have also looked with no luck.  Anyway.  It's time to say "adieu"  It's lost and that's the way it goes.

The wind was really howling today.  Very difficult conditions, so I went with a 3/4 ledgebuster and caught this nice lber.

Also caught a two on a baby bass.  and a few incidentals on worms.

Nice fish.  Althought that would make me sick if I lost a GLX/TDZ combo.  How did it happen?

i agree nice fish

Now that's a pain in the a.....! Nice fish by the way!

Nice fish Avid!

Bassin_man, see avids "night fishing" post here in "tournament or outting"

Nice Fish!!  

Avid, maybe your young friend did find your rod and...........???

Nice job Avid. I went out today and ony got 3 dinks.  I saw a bunch of schooling baby bass though.  Don't know what that means, but I mean alot.

If I thought for a moment he would do that, I wouldn't have told him which cove I lost it in.  I'm not naive, but you have to trust someone sometime.

Ahhh, it looks like the fish are paying you back for your sacrifice of your combo

Avid, please stop taking pics of bass while you are sitting on the tiolet!! ;D ;D

Just kidding...I'm just jealous.

Avid, sorry but it was just a thought!

That pic looks like you are wearing some bling-bling on your shades cuz of where the spinnerbait blades are in the pic! We're all in trouble now fellas...Avid has started to go gangsta on us! Just wait...right now it's just sunglasses bling. Then it'll be the diamond grill, the "krunk" juice, and further pimpin' his canoe!

Weeeeeeee...cabin fever is in full swing here...can ya tell? Sorry 'bout the combo though man. Oh well. At least ya tried to find it. Just gotta chalk it up as one of those "$#!% happens" experiences. At least yer still catchin' feesh and enjoying tyour time on the water.

Good fish,Avid!

WTG Avid sorry about your combo. Do you know anyone who dives? Maybe they can get it for you.

Sorry about your rod and reel, but man that is a goooooood feesh.

Avid, please stop taking pics of bass while you are sitting on the tiolet!! ;D ;D

that was funny.  does kinda look like that eh?

Well I'm happy your catching them cause all I'm catching are snow bass out in the front yard. I was thinking and maybe this is way out of the question but maybe you could go to a Scuba school around where you live and see if they would take a shot at finding your rig for a donation or something or you could take a few lessons yourself and then find it on your own. Just an idea Anyway nice fish

Lovely Don!  You're a better man than I at this time of year .

I live in a private community.  Swimming and diving in the lake is not permitted.

Not that it would matter.

My lake is so full of weeds that once something goes over, even if  you know the exact spot it can be hard to find and dangerous to try.

In my case.  I know that I fished the outfit entering the cove (approx 25 acres) and when I was gathering my stuff to leave, It was gone.  So I have no idea where it is.  

I've gotten pretty good at "letting it go"  I acutally miss the reel more than the rod at this point.

I'm blessed to have an ample supply of high end equipment so It's all good.

I was lucky.
