Was fishing just East of Franks yesterday and found a half-submerged rod and reel.
If you lost it tell me the type of rod and reel and you can have them.

If it was this rig I'd be tempted to just keep it, but this isn't it, either.

Dang, there's a bunch more rods out there in the drink, but this one must still be out there cause it ain't it.

If you find a Powell Max 733 with a Quantum Burner, it's mine. I lost it in a rain storm on the NE side of Franks five years ago. If it helps, it has a spinnerbait tied on.

It wasn't this one either, and I didn't find it yesterday, so it must still be on it's way.
