Waypoint would have worked if you had that option

Couldn't remember which one I was on....guess I could drag'em all! This on my honey hole by the way. Markers are on the bigger trees, on the outer edge of a grove of trees in 15 to 20 ft of water on a main lake point. Crappie are always stacked in it.

Ouch,that hurts.Not familiar with your setup,but magnet fishing might be a good option in case of future mishaps.

The best thing to use for trying to grab a rod off the bottom is to use the old metal fish stringers. Open all of them up and have at it.....works very well.

+1 this is the best method for getting your rod back. It works better than a treble hook. I have retrieved two rods using this method.

Yesterday was our 1st time spider rigging. overall it went a lot better than planned. Started off with four 10' BGJP's. The first 30 minutes, needless to say, was a cluster. After that all went pretty well. After getting in to our groove we decided to put out a couple more smaller rods. This is when this happens. Brand new Abu Garcia.

Yikes. I resemble that act! Sorry that happened.

It happens to all of us at one time or another. I can at least say I have caught more of other peoples lost rod & reels by accident (prolly 7 or eight) than I have lost myself... I have only lost one in many years of fishing.

I put my rod and reel on top of my brothers Bimini top and grabbed another rod and forgot about it. My brother saw it fall off the top at the last second. Gone to the bottom, a few weeks later a crappie guide friend found it. I don’t know why the friend hasn’t re- lined with new line and cleaned and oiled the reel and over nighted it to me (lol).
