I was once in a stream looking for big trout, a lot of smaller ones were floating and righting themselves then swimming off when I released the live switch, then something was floating, it was a pike,I went to pick it out of the water as it was too big for the net BANG it was like I had been smashed by decca heggie, I had forgotten to release the off switch 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
