kickingfrog Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 With a camera and a big treble on a spoon you might be able to get it back no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Amazing what you can get back out of 100FOW pounding a big 6/0 hook ! Took me 25 minutes to get my burner cover back last year! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillM Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I would absolutely try and get that back... Get Terry out there with his GoPro (For beer or $$$) a giant treble some weight and go at it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormdunker Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Good ideas with the camera & large treble hook. Awesome! To add to your suggestions. Use a small diameter rope attached to a steel rod, hang several treble hooks off the steel rod. My luck I'd hook & fish not the fishing rod!!

Angler management Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Great ideas, but i sold my sled and its a long way out... If i did go back out, i would focus more on fishing then trying to hook a small ice rod and reel in 78fow. My luck, it would never happen! Already tried for couple hours when it happened. 44*28.098N 79*19.898W. Best of luck if u think u can get it. Its about 15km from beaverton.

lew Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I lost a Shimao V-rod and Curado reel over the side 10 years ago. I hooked on a large "5 of Diamond" spoon and was dragging that around the bottom trying to snag it. Never got the rod & reel back but caught a 4 pound pickeral on the spoon instead.

Angler management Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Its funny because i made a comment in the classifieds few days ago, the guy selling the showdown had a pic using the core, and i commented," i thought i was the only one crazy enough to use a core on ice"... Definetly psyched mysel out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 How did the reel end up at the bottom of the lake? Please tell us it was an epic battle with a 30lb lake trout, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angler management Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Stood up for a stretch, and kicked it in the hole handle first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishindevil Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 It probably involved a cell phone, smoke, or pee break...if I had to guess...usually dangerous times for equipment laying around! thats how mine happened !!!! .....the pee smoke thing....hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'll get some weights, a long hose and see what I can come up with in the summer, lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angler management Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Best of luck! It has a nice 36" rapala rod as well! And please dont rub it in my face if u get it. Its brand new, had it out twice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrison Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Stood up for a stretch, and kicked it in the hole handle first... I did the same thing in a hut, but with a Mag lite in 15ft of water. It landed beam up, messed the fishing for the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was beign sarcastic. Go talk to one of the divers that frequent the Barrie waterfront in the summer/spring.. Offer him a few bucks and a ride out to the waypoint, you never know!

chefboi17 Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'm considering tapeing a rare earth magnet to the bottom of my ice rods, and carrying a small industrial magnet on a rope, just incase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bare foot wader Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 that's a tough loss, I feel your pain...I've lost a cannon g11 in the boat, it wasn't so much the camera, that could be replaced...but my 32gb card, some of them were once in a lifetime pics that can't be replaced, it was a sit down and stare at the water without speaking for a few minutes, it sucked....i now backup all my pics immediately i would think now is your best time to try to get it...drill holes in a grid pattern 10' apart and rig up something to try and snag it....you might get lucky and catch the line, rod and lure would be on bottom, line might be suspended and catching some currents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) I was able to catch a radio in 80 fow using a cleo and my marcum fish camera a few week ago. Edited March 4, 2013 by jedimaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Once the ice is gone, you've pretty much have a 0% chance of getting it. If you can find it on an underwater camera, I'm willing to bet you could get it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
