I was out boat fishing last night.and as always I took a spare rod (a Bloke in Original tube) I can tell you that when it falls over the side ,It sinks like a stone..
Be warned.

Crikey Jim that's a bad do, hard luck mate.
I would have put money on it floating.

Hope you weren't out on Loch Awe at the time or you'd need a sub to get it back. Hope you get reunited with it Jim.

wasn't a sh**e rod so sank.

seriously hard luck jim, was it in aluminium tube? did similar couple of years back with camera whilst trying to photo big rainbow in water. cameras dont float either. lost both!

It's gone.unless it pop's up again,and an honest angler finds it and hands it in.

The keeper is looking every where for it Jim and no doubt others will keep their eyes open for it.

Nothing worse, Jim.
