- Hi, I am Steve Clark
- In 2002, I Retired and found that I needed a hobby.
- So I started Bass fishing in Lake Perris, Ca.
- I went fishing almost everyday.
- One morning I wasn't thinking, and in 30 feet
of water,
- I dropped a brand new Calcutta 150,
- a Japanese version. If you know what that is,
you know how rare it is.
- I had ordered this reel directly from
a dealer in Japan and
- had the reel on a Brand new Phoenix
rod;
- both were worth over 400 dollars.
- Yep!
- There they lay at the bottom of the
lake,
- in 30 to 40 feet of water.
- If I had a rod leash I would not have dropped them.
- Thankfully, a friend gave me a rod leash.
- I haven't
ever forgotten that horrible day,
- maybe you have a rod and reel at the bottom
of a lake?
- I have been a friend of Rick Hubbard ever since.
- You can find Rick's Rod Leash at
