You have had a bad Day when

[DKR]

You know you have a bad day when you lose your brand new transom mounted trolling motor because you forgot to raise it up while running your outboard That happened my first trip out. :D

I know what that feels like.

You know its a bad day when you motor a half our to honey hole, rig up, and
realize farts aren't supposed to have lumps in them.



I'm not saying it happened, but these things could.

It's a bad day when you have to take an emergency squirt back into your empties cuz you'll never make it to shore in time, then you get the strike of your life on your line with the rod sittin in the rod holder. Not bad yet right? In a mad scramble to pinch it off and grab the rod you knock over 2 24 oz cans of premium kidney filtered lager. The up side is that I landed the fish, down side... my cushioned Kayak seat smells like urine.... live and learn I guess

You know it's a bad day when after shutting down the big motor, dropping the trolling motor, make your first cast to the bank with a crappie jig, and the wife says " Honey, why is there water coming through the floor drain? You beach the boat, hang over the back and feel the plug. Then struggle to get the boat on plane, get to the ramp, load it up and jump out to discover you put the plug in one of the live well holes.

Just have to add to this......
Back in the mid 60's I was living in Troy Ala and the day before Easter I had gone to FL Speckeled Trout Fishing ... My wife and kids had gone to her mothers .. so I thought I mite as well run out to a mile long mill pond and run some freshwater thru the rig .... 14' "Tuffy" alum Jon Boat (now Fisher marine ... 14 HP McCoullugh (SP} ... All that was in the boat was gas tank, about 1/4 full 6 gal tank ... a boat paddle, boat cushion and me ... I run to the upper end and back and make a turn to the landing at the dam .. well 2 kids had put in a runabout and put out about a 2 in wake (real calm and here I am in more or less a skid and hit that little wake ... I am then airborne ... hit the water and look up and here it comes at me lucky just before it gets to me it turns and starts cutting DoughNuts ... the kids in the boat came & got me and dragged me back to the landing .... well its just after noon and here they come several boats to do some skiing ... I'm sitting over to one side trying to get dry waiting for the motor to use up the gas ... the comments I heard .... such as "what idiot did that" and on and on ... seems like that thing will never run out of gas ... an hour and a half later ... and some more embaressement and some of the story I will leave out it finally came to a stop and a friend towed it in .... needless to say I got it on the trailer and got the heck out of their ... Scare me ? you got that right and I do belive in wearing a live jacket when running as it can happen before you can say dont do it ..

Have A Good Day
