Nah.. no big fish.. a Mate of mine accidentally decided to knock my rod out of the snapper rod holders with his butt ! :( :( :(
Lol better tell him to pay up that twin power is worth some dough.

I was too nice not to ask him to fork out any $$...

I was too nice not to ask him to fork out any $$... but later when he drove back, we were near the docks... it was around 16 meters, in the channel while heading back.. but he chose to go somewhere else to search for gummy not letting me know what he was doing and he got his boat stuck on the 0.3 to 0.5 meters of water n stuck in the reef.. he blaming me for asking him to go too far to fish and was late to come back and he couldnt see..

Sounds like some complacency came into play. First he knocks an outfit into the drink, then he runs aground, then he gets back late...and to add fuel to the fire, it's someone else's fault? Maybe the poor fella just had a crappy day...
Rustie, now the dust has settled (so-to-speak), it would be worth having a chat about that outfit you lost. If he has done damage to his hull and is going through insurance, it's a perfect chance to claim for that outfit...and the other ones that went overboard :)

I dont think your items wouldn't be covered under your mates policy unless hes added them on when he took out his policy
