He was just doing what any good guide would do when you just lost your client's trophy

Ha, can't say I've done that for a fish but a few years back my son and I were fishn in pittock puddle and he dropped his pole in the drink. So in I went, bout 10or 12 ft down,took a couple of dives but I found it. Cleaned her all up an still in use today.

I had a muskie on up at the French a few years back and the hook popped out beside the boat. I just slowly reached down and grabbed it by the gill plate and lifted it out of the water. Don't think it even knew what was going on, it was a quick fight.

I wouldn't have jumped in after it though, I had a run in with muskie teeth in the past and it wasn't pretty.
