Have had that happen before, luckily i just had one pole out.
Funny........but dang it man that could have went wrong quickly
The boy was lucky not to have been killed. That much static means lightening is looking for a place to ground. I'll be danged if I would have been worried about getting them in.

No way to get charged up . Bad.
+100 WB, plus they would have a lota bleeps in there.
Been there. Done that for real. Would not recommend it for recreation.
Happened to ATM and me at the Sardis MCC this spring. Had a couple spare rods in rocket launchers on my t-top that were arcing like crazy. Thought I had a wiring short that was energizing the t-top.
Not yet on the water for me. But in the woods with a rifle.
Dang, that's some crap there. I'm afraid them poles would have ridden to the landing in the rod holders.
