jordy Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Had the arvo to myself so i thought it was time to have my first crack at the bass this season.Not enough time to get out the yak so bush bashing it was and of i went to a new location id been sussing on google maps.Knew when i got to the river id have to cross and cover some ground to reach my spot.On arrival I couldnt wait to get casting it looked great ,selected a lure,attatched reel to the reel seat then when I went to put my rod together realised I had the wrong top half.OUCH.I reckon i stood there dumbfounded for about 5 minutes before i thought better get something out of it and sussed out some more fishy areas on foot before i went home sheepishly without firing a blow in anger.

rockfisherman Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 That's why I ALWAYS take 2 outfits when I go fishing. In case equipment failure occurs, or in this case brain failure (no offence) At least you got to suss out a few more spots Harry
Scratchie Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Lol....you could always use the reel as a handline!

Mike89 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Haha. Well at least you got to scope out some new grounds. I've forgotten the bait a few times but never my rod. Love PPPPPP, rolls off tongue better than "fail to plan.." and certainly sounds less matter-of-fact and like my old man. I'm gonna use that.
jordy Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Im gonna hang up a PPPPPP sign over my rod rack at home.It will never happen again.!!!!!
