Anybody that has been fishing tournaments or for fun for any lenghth of time has had some bad experience that ruins an otherwise great outing.  I had one a couple years ago while fishing a tournament the livewell pump got plugged and I ended up with about 18.5 # of dead fish.  Broke my heart.  Made changes to the livewell system now though and haven't had any problems since.  What are some of the missed opportunities that you all have come across?

No tourneys but missed plenty of sales cuz I'm so cheap.
