Mantua afternoon 1/2 and a lost auger

[PACMEN]

My wife and I got to Mantua east parking lot around 1:15pm. As I was packing the sled I moved my auger off to put the tent on... and forgot to put it back in the sled. By the time I realized it and got back to the truck my kdrill had been taken   .

While I was walking back to the truck my wife started catching fish, she had 3 on the ice by the time I got to her. We used the pre drilled holes in 16’ of water and caught bluegill and perch. The bite really turned on around 4pm and we set up the tent. We were catching them in rapid succession until we decided to leave at 5. 

The fast fishing almost made up for the lapse in judgment resulting in my lost auger. 

That sucks

I have left a couple of things on occasion. None worth much at all. Nothing like a K-drill.

Due to this and finding things that I have been unable to return to the rightful owners I have started putting my name and phone # on almost everything we use out doors.
My hope in this is that whatever the item it is found by an honest soul and they give us a call.
The problem with this however is that it is rare for us to answer unknown numbers any more.

I think there are lots of honest people out there that will make the effort to return something given the chance. 
If they are not I hope every they see the number and name then have a guilty conscience every time they use it.

Hope the K-drill they picked up and then not looking for the owner hits a pile of gravel imbedded in the ice the next hole it drills.
