Grimace Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 This is one of the good endings to a SERIOUS situation. http://www.buffalonews.com/city/article491403.ece Awesome ending. I had a few close calls reaching for the downrigger ball and getting smacked by a wave. I picked up one of those auto inflatable life jackets and they are pretty comfortable.

ChrisK Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Happened to a friend of mine in Lake Erie about 15 years ago. Reaching out to set his down rigger and lost his footing. Found him treading water waving his hat on the end of a downrigger pole about 7 hours later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extend my tether and clip it to my beltloop. It is a pain to clip on and off, a 20'er would allow me to move around the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
