I was fishing on my kayak and capsized. Got most of them back but lost one or two lure boxes worth easily $150 each. If not more.

I stuffed an approx. $250 travel rod, it was 4 piece and had bits of solid rod used to join hollow sections together. A a couple of these worked loose so I decided to fix them in place with super glue, Oops! the glue set with the joiners in the wrong spot and so the rod is now an un-joinable two piece, I will use slow set epoxy next time.
Cheers
Ango.
