Whats the furthest you've ever gone to retrieve a lure?

Here was today's:

The people present started laughing (thats why the camera started shaking) and I started laughing (I had a knife in my mouth).

Rendered helpless with laughter, I lost control and was forced to retreat. Second attempted was a success and I retrieved 2 weights, a Gamy hook and a trick worm: without even getting my boxers wet.

BTW That is known as the "sloth" maneuver. lol

Its worked many times for me.

Skinny dippin'  

You kind reminded me of Mowgli from The Jungle Book.

That's great! I was thinking the same thing! ;D

I have stripped down to my boxers and swam to retrieve my favorite Zara Spook.  The water felt pretty good so I didn't really mind.

Seems like a lot of effort for a hook, some weights and a worm, unless they were tungsten weights, those things are expensive.
