Launched in St. Clair at 5:45 caught first fish at 5:55. reel broke and had to pull in by hand. Went home for spare reel (approx 1.5 miles). Got back to launch with reel and dropped it in the water getting back into my boat. Fished around with net trying to find reel for a while ....no luck. Went bak home to get another reel which is broke. ( broken tab on base where it clamps on rod). Went back out with that. had to hook fish and hold reel in hand while retreiving. Ended up back home at 8:36 with limit! Hot color was , anything you chose to put down.45 to 53 fow. It still beat going to work! Am trying to figure out how to post pics.

I have similar stories of equipment failures, but mine never include limiting on game or fish. :rolleyes: Great job.
