Spent Friday on the water at Pleasent. Cold, windy and couldn't find the bite. Best day on the water in 4 months.
Only day on the water in the last 4 months!
Here's my story
Back in July I was preping for morning run to Pleasent. For some dumb reason I stuck the plug back in my Ranger :roll:
. then got called to an emergency at Yavapai College where I work. Missed the trip in the morning. Was busy for the next couple weeks. Then we had one of our big monsoons hit. We got systems back on line at work so I set out for another morning trip to Pleasent.
( Del and I share the lake!) Anyway the boat is full of water almost up to the seat. Batteries, online charger, all gear in back compartments, Qbeam, black light, spare reels, both finders, sos spenders that had self inflated and locked everything in the compartment. I cryed and loughed at the same time
:x . I pulled the plug drained all the gunk!
Took about an hour to pri the sos-spenders out to start drying process on tackle and finders. Tossed tons of gunky plastics and spent lots of time cleaning stuff. Seems on board charger was biggest loss so far not adding up all the small stuff. I'm not sure why the auto bildge pump didn't keep up with rain. I wouldn't have needed to worry if I'd left the damm plug out untill I got to the lake in the first place. OK I plead dumm but I'm back on the water! :wink:
