Pole bump
A few months ago my older brother came out from Colorado to go fishing with me. I was in my Outback, and he's in my older "Mirage". We're doing pretty good catching rock fish and Dogfish sharks. I try to come alongside to give him more bait or something, and my angle of approach wasn't quite right. My bow hit him right behind the seat, and right below one of the rod holders. I watched helplessly as my bow neatly snagged the reel on one of my poles and neatly lifted the rig out of the holder and dropped it into the deep.
Oops! Luckily it was not a pricey rod and reel. It was one my brother had picked up for a song back in Colorado. People move there with ocean rigs, then sell them for cheap when they realize that Colorado does't have an ocean.
