Was cold, and i guess when i had it made,it was quite fitted.I knew after a few cast,with the motion of the rod and the cool weather, must have shrunk my finger.It came off twice,so i pocketed my ring, thinking its the best option to hold on to it....think again, after quite a few fish, and quite a few beers, i thought, well maybe the pocket isnt the best option, few brews might not remeber where it is, so what do i do, first instinct, put the ring back on. and before i knew it ,cast out and motion just slipped the ring, i can still see it "in slow motion" th cast and actioin the movement o my arm i can still see the scene inside my head. flicking the rod and seeing that vision of the ring coming off,and going overboard. well , imagine trying to expain to the mrs, what happend! it was an expalination, well trust me, tring to expalin...and out fishing when this happend...oh god!
