According to him he don't care. We're going to upper bear to see what he can find. I know he has been on upper bear and picwick several times. As far as temp. I believe he is set up to play under ice. So don't think that will be a issue

Brandon I know a diver too that could help. Not sure what he'd charge but if you want his number let me know and I'll get it to you. He's retrieved numerous sunken items for people.

Contact your local rescue squad or sheriffs dept for names of divers in the area. I may cost you a little but sounds like its worth it.

I've used one of those hooks you deep fry a turkey with to retrieve a friend's shotgun in about 20 ft if water. It worked pretty good. It will fall on its side when it gets to the bottom because it's top heavy..... like my wife...

Just let me know if you want me to get one of our firemen to dive for it. I bet one of the Helena firemen would do it for "training". Did you save the costas?

Initially, yes. grin

They were lost the second time when the boat capsized, however.

Thanks buddy. I might take you up on that if the magnet doesn't work out. I figure the battery and trolling motor are toast so I'm really just hoping to get my two rod/reels back at this point. The costas would be a nice bonus item to pick up.

Goodluck, the trolling motor may not be toast if you let it dry out REAL good. They are made to be in wet environments.
Can't wait to hear the story however

Like I said, it IS a REAL GOOD laugh for anyone else. It's just too fresh right now to me (and expensive) to be funny.

If anyone here is an office fan, let's just say I watched the Koi Pond episode last night with a new appreciation. laugh

We used a big treble hook and weight for a friend's rid and tell in 20-30 feet of water.

Took a long time but we finally got it.

God Bless,

Will the story start off with, "Hold my beer"?

I've seen an old man man pull up many a fishing rods with one of those old school metal fish stingers that looks like a chain with safety pins on it. Tie one end to a rod with heavy line. Unsnap all the hooks so that they're all open to snag stuff. Cast it out and slowly drag it back along the bottom.
