Hey there lonehunter,
I gotta tell my lure retrieval experience. A couple of years before I came back from Japan we had some really wierd weather two years in a row.
1996 was a very wet year and the reservior I always fished 2 days a week was really high. When Summer came, the water dropped 20 or 25 feet, I noticed a little old man in a boat going along the shore with this huge long fishing pole.
When he saw me stopped fishing and beat paddles. Later I went around a sharp bend and there he was with that pole WITH some hooks on the end as he was pulling off $30 lures from the steep walls, brush and even tree limbs that had been submerged during the high water and lost by anglers.
He
