sorry if its a repost, i looked for it but couldnt find it...
i found the attached pic on facebook, anybody knows the story behind it??
From what I read he hit something and lost control. There has been alot of tore up lower units so far this tournement hes not the only who has hit something. Just the only one to end up in the trees.
fishin for $100k, sometimes you gotta make sacrifices. Glad no one was hurt..
I bet that was a hella cool ride!
Looks like He was going for Those extremely shallow bass.
All joking asides I am glad every one was ok
Never give up!
looks like they overshot the landing after jumping a beaver dam

They look in good spirits, Id be fuming if I did that to my boat.

yes, thanx traveler!!! everything is working now, im not finished with the restoration yet, but the season ended last weekend so now i have more working time for the next 4 months.... as it is right not everthing works great, it starts faster than my car, but it still has a lot of things to do...
and regarding the pic, what happened to him or the boat?? if the boat brakes can he get another one an dkeep fishing??
That's what you call fishing shallow.
#1 rule in fishing laydowns is boat positioning

easy to make sacrifices when sponsors are paying the repair bills.....
That is one way to not spook the fish with the trolling motor.
When ya gotta go --ya gotta go--
yup, when you're given a new boat each year it's not a hard decision.
Maybe he's trying to get Sea Tow as a sponsor
Man, that guy will do anything for attention.
I hate to be cynical......but does anyone else notice the group sticks laying together that "look" like a ramp for the keel of the boat?
not that I am calling staged, just saying looks weird.
That's My Booat! (in my best Forest Gump voice)
I wonder if he hit Rod Bassey's partner and spun out of control???
If so, Mark Trail will get him.
this girl was following him when it happened
