Mark, thank you. Sorry to hear your fishing horror story, I feel for you, it's just part of time on the water.
Sometimes one pole works a lot better than two. That said, I do use two sometimes. Sometimes they get tangled.
You will get yours very soon, this already is an awesome year for fishing.
When you do, try this BBQ recipe, it's awesome. I really want someone to try it and report back in before the end of the month.
See you out there. I be trying again at daybreak.
