Nope, not me, I have a friend that was looking for that thread.  Thanks!

Since I got this little jon boat I'm terrified of this happening. I told my son as long as the water is above 60 and the depth is less than 20 feet be ready to go in after any stuff overboard. I don't dress with anything that I can't swim in on a minutes notice.

Hey this is a combination answer to this question. I remeber a thread when I first joine the forum about some guy trying to get his girlfriends cat's hair out of his boats carpet. This will solve both problems. Get about 50 feet of anchor rope and attach it to the offending cats tail add a little weight and into the water with the cat. The cat will naturally put his claws out and with luck may snag the rod while washing away all those loose hairs. Remeember to take caution not to leave the little guy submerged to long as he may drown ::) ;D

Ihad a scare the other evening.  I went to pick up one of rods and it wasn't there.  I looked and did a quick count. 1-2-3- oops. where is my fourth rod? I can feel the panic about to choke me when I look back and see it FLOATING!!.  Yep.  It was my St. Croix 6'8" tournament bass medium xf with a TD-Z reel floating about 20 feet behind my canoe.  I was able to easily paddle back and scoop it in.  Amazing!!
