I decided to search for my lost rod/reel yesterday. On Sat. while fishing with Birdman I kicked my newest/best spinning reel over the side of the boat into about 25 ft of water. I rigged up a drag system and went hunting. Jerry is right the wind was horrible at times but at others it wasn&#39;t so bad. I was not successful in finding my rod/reel . So I decided to fish my way back in to the truck and caught one nice fat spot in Kings Slough. Fish was approximate 15&quot; and I&#39;d say 1.5 lbs. He had orange eyes and was quite to be removed from his watery home. As I threw him back he splashed John in the face with water LMAO. Not a great day of fishing but it sure beat sitting at home!<br /><br />
