Exciting Day

I am writing this on my new 99 cent galaxy tab 3. Why u may ask--well because I had to get a new phone and they had a deal that when u get a galaxy 5s u get the tab for .99:cool: I got a galaxy 5s ACTIVE (seemed the smart thing to do) So why the new phone u may ask? Well I went to Enid today and ended up catching 10 good ones spider rigging with gnats on top and big boy jigs on the botton. I left at 11:30. So I got on the water early and headed to pt 9. I had to rig everything when I got there cuz I just dump3d my poles in the boat before I left this morning. Had two poles out and tieing another rig. Jig in left hand I felt my ez pole perch move. It was slow motion. I knew the feeling from previous dumps but this one I knew I was going in so I just balled up and went with it. A-i didnt loose my jig B-I killed my phone and C-that water felt gooood :D So I climbed back in the boat, finished rigging, and commenced to catching. I did get hung up and broke a pole but all in all was a fun day. Sorry no pics--

Been there done that, dang them fesh a long ways up the lake!!!!:yikes

what part moved?? I have the same rig and now wonder how I might get dumped.

Welcome to the club.... I did that with a
week old 5s when they came out...

Well it was a combination of things. I have the 1.77 ranger style. Two things are wrong--1 I have some gunk in the bottom of the hole which puts pressure on the post 2 the sleeve that fits in the hole (original on the boat) comes out very easy. I need to glue it back in. It has dumped me and a partner twice before and this was the fist time with just me. I have been making plans to put dual bases in and mamma just told me to do it NOW!!! When I'm by myself I just have one seat on it and that didn't help--I wish someone had gotten video.

I have the hole saw. What bases you puttin in?

I tell ya the older I get the more I get the hebe jebes after stuff like that thinking what could have happened. I guess the wife is starting to rub off a bit. initially I thought it was pretty fun until I thought about it.

You are SNAKE BIT!!!! Remind me to stay FAR away from you. You're jinxed for sure. :)

Starting to think so. You ever seen the movie Thinner
I'm trying to figure out who put the hex on me lol
Heck went to wally world the evening and jusg got the bug to get tires rotated and oil change,. Ended up having a bolt and washer stuck through front right tire. Guesx I have just a tad bit of luck. Comes and goes like the weather I suppose :D

I've got an EZT pole perch. I have removed it and have made a call to Wayne Inman to fix me up. They will work, but the quality was lacking in several areas. Never had a safety issue. I guess you get what you pay for.

Glad it wasn't any worse than the phone for you David.

Yeah--it is very economical and for the price I've been pleased. I can't fault the build quality I guess--but I've been wanting to free up the space between seats for awhile so now is the time.

Was it over your head? hahahaha

Finding the bolt and washer before the blow out--GOOD

Having the bolt and washer in your tire to start with---As usual---BAD LUCK!!!!! :)

Yup
