I got caught out yesterday in an electrical storm that had me freaked out. It blew up so fast that I couldnt get out fast enough. The rods were sparking almost half an nich to my fingers and the rain drops were arking on the boat. Not to mention the hail we ran thru on the way back to the ramp. Like bees I tell you!!! Scarry stuff, my fingers hurt till ten last nite from having the crap shocked out of them.
