Don't you hate it when that happens. Here's one involving pictures that's even more sickening.

You know how sometimes auto-load cameras rewind film when the roll is shot but they leave the little tag end of the film sticking out? I had a roll that I took out of the camera and forgot to tuck the tag end into the canister. Later I grabbed the roll, reloaded it and shot pictures over what was already on it. I ended up ruining pictures from a trip to Alaska with my wife and a bunch of steelhead pics from BC

So don't feel too bad. You'll always remember that fish. And glad to hear you let it go. Wish there were more with the same common sense.
