The other day (Monday) I was on Oshawa creek, using my pin. The line got wrapped up inside the reel so I took the spool off to try and get it out. Of course as I'm doing this it slips out of my hand and I lose it in the drink, it's a Greys Bewick silver centrepin spool, I lost it just below the Thomas st bridge. PLEASE if anyone finds it shoot me a PM or email me at [email protected] if anyone finds it I would be glad to tie 20 steelhead/trout flies of the persons choice. Thanks

I'd go back with a powerful magnet and sweep the area. Many years ago I had a guy return all of my lures I dropped in Meadord.

 

Yeah....an aluminum magnet would be best.

That sucks dude!

 

How deep is the water where you dropped it? I guess the water was too stained to see it on monday, but it might be cleared up enough now to find it. Have you been back since??

That sucks as well,I almost lost a rod on the boat,and was all cleared to jump in.Always anything of value off.Not quite the same at the river bank I know. But would still be worth a swim IMO.Never know when that may happen.Nothing a couple hot totties wouldn't cure :P .

Maybe some fool should inbed an iron wire/button just in case.

 

I have convention buttons that are hard to pull apart, les than 1/4 inch across!

 

On my way MERCMAN coming for a good French wedding! Hope they don't put iron in the putine, ok fries with gravy and chesse.

Find someone with an underwater camera like an aqua vu. Mount the camera to a stick and probe the bottom. You definitely don't want to be digging around with your hands in Oshawa creek.

I wonder how many people will be rooting around the dirty old Thomas st bridge tomorrow morning...

 

Best of luck in finding it. I strongly suggest the magnet idea

Is that an offer? ;)
