If you read my first post on 2 bad days in a row, I've now increased it to three by breaking my rod today, and topped that off by dropping my gerber multi tool into the drink while trying to unhook a fish. I have done well over $700 dollars damage in the last three trips!! I am catching fish though which is softening the blow a little... (18lb, 16lb kings, 2 silvers plus countless released on my fly rod)

My thought is to ride the bad luck out rather than skip fishing for a few days... I'm trying real hard to keep the glass half full

elkrun, I know the feeling. Hang in there the tide will turn eventually. Four days before the first driftboat monday(only fish the lower river on those quiet days) on the Kenia my skiff on the middle r. sank for no apparent reason. Lost a few hundred dollars of gear. Decided to work on mon. instead of fish, pretty weak decision, but $#@* happens, especialy when your having fun.
