Nope I won't blame a gal for tryin, FG [

Cool beans about the Crappie though! Gotta love it when that happens!
side note: A couple years ago I had a sucker on a quick-strike rig hanging over the side of the boat (barely in the water maybe 2' foot of line in the drink) to keep him alive while I moved another 50yds further down a weedline with the electric... Well, as I'm day dreaming in the silence around me.. the water erupts at the back of the boat. My rod that was just laid across the rear deck started bashing back and forth against the motor and transom. Holy cats! Scared the crap outta me!! Luckily I was able get back there and grab the rod before It went for a swim! after a few minutes I landed a 33-34" Pike was as bold as they come [crazy]
Anywho.. I can relate to the bail thing.. I've often caught myself looking for a drag adjustment on my fly reels that don't have one LOL! ... talk about a trip! All of a sudden the light turns on and I think to myself - oh yea, I need to palm this damned thing! [laugh][pirate]
