Ray LOL that was too funny and sad at the same time!!
Something about Secession and drain plugs, it has happened to me more than once on that lake and one one trip we were fishing the upper river when my boat filled with water. Yep bottom is close in the river. I think the luckiest thing & hard to handle trip was the day I made a run down to the dam and as I was coming back to the ramp I seen you and Don fishing and stopped to talk with y'all. When I started to leave my boat wouldn't move and raised the motor and my prop was gone Lucky it didn't happen near the dam but that was a stainless steel prop.....
Each day it seems I get a little more forgetful so at some point when I make mistakes by the next day I won't remember it happened So all is good...
