As you can see from the picture, the net is beside a rod/reel combo in the rod rack on a tee top. Guess what happened when the net was grabbed to bring in a catch. The net caught the rod/reel combo and sent it flying away! Luckily I had an extension put on it by THE MALT SHOP. Believe it or not, the rod/reel combo FLOATED with the extension visible and we were able to retrieve it! I have personally lost three combos to Davy Jones’s Locker by dropping them in the water. I owe one to THE MALT SHOP! If you want to know more, ask me!

Lesson learned! Leave a rod holder between the net and a rod/reel combo!
I will have more rods with that extension!!!!!
