I will admit to this one at least, a freind and I were out on a shallow no motor lake at 0600. the mist was coming of the lake as the day was begining. my freind and I rowed out to one side of the lake and droped anchor. didn't catch anything after about half hour decided to move. was talking to the freind as we were rowing ( for about 15 minutes) looked of at the bank an noted my pickup was still in the same spot as it was when we stoped the first time. looked over board and found a 20 foot zig zag on the bottom where I was draging anchor. boy got a good laught out of that one.:D

Re: got oars and a anchor

I know mine is coming some day, I almost did a good one last year I was chasing a speed boat in the sheriff's north river sled. Ya I know a sled what was I thinking but he made me mad I was inspecting a boat when he went by at mach 3. so any how a bend in the river was coming up and I had to cross hi wake to stay out of the shallows and got the boat air born thought I was going over. after chewing on the boater for a while I then went to a little cove and cleaned myself up if you know what I mean.:D
