Lost Rods
on the off chance they didn't end up in the canyon
(not sure since I didn't have my transducer down) rolled it just inside the white buoys on my return at 3ish 3 rods not clipped in (dunno why since I always clip em when returning typically, tired and lazy I guess) custom Calstar with a triton 20/40 G-loomis with a Calcutta (forgot brand casting rod with nat cork handle) with a new Avet thanks to the guy who helped me roll it back over (and gather a few things) I was on the wrong side of the yak with my first attempt didn't think to get a gps cord at the time grrr P |
That's heartbreaking! I have lost items to the fish gods before as well and it is usually followed by some awesome fishing Karma. I hope yours comes soon!

How cool is that, looks like you'll get them back.:luxhello: |
ew wow
gonna look into that thanks and fingers crossed how I rolled... coming in There was some chop and slop with the following seas, so I was zig sagging to avoid back swamping. while zigging I started to track to the left until I got perpendicular to the swell. To correct I dug in hard to the right, leaned a bit and at almost the same time got hit with a nice choppy wave. I tried to correct by leaning to the other side but I was past the point of no return, and in a went. I had to laugh at the time because it sure felt comical. |

me too learned a few things... always leash /clip your stuff if its not in your hands(I thought I knew this but I guess I forgot and or got complacent), or have a floaty attached dont zig zag with following seas be careful near the canyon offers of help are greatly appreciated even if I think I can manage by myself (because sometimes I cant), my buddies were already on the beach at the time im prob gonna rig up a step/loop to hang from my handles to be better able to get the yak back over when on the opposite side of the yak from the oncoming swell the fishing/diving community Is fricken awesome and my pride almost kept me from posting this which is foolish(the pride part) THANKS MUCHO p |
Hope you get em back. You got to the beach just before me and another kayaker told me about your misfortune as you were loading up. The chop just didn't ease up, so I jumped out in waist deep water and walked it in. Too many people in the beach to try to avoid also.

I might have the GPS coordinates (sorry I didn't think input a marker but since I did a few circles should be easy to pin point) will check when I get home and see if its still on there. Think you were in 57ft of water. |

will be waiting to here from Ofer that depth sounds like how deep he was diving so that's a major positive hoping I don't need to employ Gregs talents |

I did the same thing when I came in very crowded and no fish for me either did see a few landed though so that was cool like a crazy river past the point current was kicking P |
tried to send off another email
maybe he is out of town still no reply |
3 fishing poles with reels found yesterday off Marine Room
Yesterday early morning I dove the Marine Room, ended up at 55' on the slope where I found a fishing pole, and another and another...yes, 3 poles, all quite long and a pain to carry back but I figured a poor fisherman on a kayak probably tipped over. One is a custom made, "Taylor made for Brad Perry". If you are Brad or you know him, contact me with the details, pole type, length, reel, colors etc.
the poles were rinsed off and waiting to go home. Ofer |
actually Brad Perry was my old roommate some 20 years ago
I sent you several emails describing my stuff that rod is mine not sure why you arnt getting my emails weird my email is itswood@lycos.com I have the matching pole(another calstar with a smaller triton reel on it) and receipts for the avet reel and prob picts of the rods in my yak to prove if further proof is needed thanks I will pm you here my ph number and maybe you can do the same for me? thanks P |
