Here is the scene, mid november air temp 30degrees, water temp maybe 45, snowing like there was no tomorrow. Fishing my home river below a coffer dam for steelies with a buddy we can't help notice this idiot casting a spoon right up into the dam in an area that is clearly marked no fishing. OK, this guy gets hung up on bottom with his gorrila cable and cannot pull it free, so he hands his rod off to his buddy, proceeds to take off his jacket and tshirt, empties his pockets and dives right in to retrieve his $2 spoon. Somehow he got it out of the rocks and made it back to shore, then puts his clothes back on and starts casting again. We seen this guy pull the same stunt one more time before retreating for some warmth.

Another one was this past fall at a boat ramp. We had just pulled our boat out of the water and had some guys next to us doing the same. The guys next to us start pulling there 16ft aluminum V out of the water and as soon as they get it up the ramp it flips over off from the trailer smashing all of there rods, reels, tackle, motor casing, etc.. We did help them get the boat back on the trailer but had a hell of a laugh on the way home.
