I love to drift backwards while canoeing the Saugeen, I know I catch more fish by doing that, I was drifting and casting along a shore that has smallies most of the time there are rocks and just before a set of rapids a big log in the water, I laid a perfect cast I thought but my lure hooked 2 rods out of the back of the canoe and landed them on the bottom of the river 1 was my Calcutta I was not impressed, water was about 4 ft deep and dirty enough I couldn't see bottom & fast enough I couldn't hope my self there, this happened on a saturday on wednesday after I borrowed a buddies electric motor, tide a treble hook on and redrifted the area, the water was cleaner and not as fast when I thought I was close to the spot I looked over the side & hooked both rods hit the electric and trolled back to the car :thumbsup_anim: very happy
