moog5050 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I literally lost my lowrance and fish hawk. How does one misplace these electronics, I seriously don't know. After turning my house and my fathers house upside down, they are no where to be found. Stupid, stupid. There is $1300 out the window and guaranteed they pop up after we replace them. Just a little venting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grampy Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I store my electronics in a drawer in the basement over the winter. Did you check your drawers?........... Hope they turn up. If they do, after replacement, you will have backups. But not too much sucks worse, than not finding something you know you got! Good luck shopping, finding, or both! Wish I had something compatible I could send ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bad feeling we left a duffle bag on the dock when we closed up last season. A little late to learn now. But, new lowrance fish finder and fish hawk x4d will be here this week. In the grand scheme of things, it's not that big of a deal. Just silly but expensive mistake by us. At least we will be fishing by next weekend. And to my surprise, bass pro refused to price match with Walmart. $100 difference. But I ended up buying the lowrance at the gps store for about $150 less than bass pro since I did not have to pay sales tax.

I tried. I am guessing there is something fishy going on. No pun intended. Tough to find the x4d cheaper than 799. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Found Em! And I refuse to divulge where as it further confirms my stupidity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve D Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 When this thread started I asked myself "I wonder if he checked the boat". Is it possible that is where they showed up?? Sounds like something I might do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 Not on the boat but in a tackle bag where we keep squids flys and flashers. I tore my house apart and never looked in the freaking bag we pulled off the boat. Never crossed my mind I would put them in with tackle. Uggghh. I now have some items to return.

Steve D Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 As least you still have about 1300 reasons to be happy. Happens to all of us at one time or another. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawdwaz Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Funny, I just read this post and laughed as I knew where they'd be. Last year at some point The_Real_TCIII lost some binos. I don't recall if the "Notice Of Lost Gear" came to me via the open forum, a PM or text message but within a few minutes I chimed in where they could be found. A gear bag also, IIRC is where his were to turn up. The gear bag thing is just a coincidence, I'd have sniffed them out either way. I do these little things all the time. Should anyone else have a piece of sporting gear come up MIA, channel me and I'll put you on to them, thus saving you mega bucks. Cannot help with things like "lost virginity" though............. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grampy Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Glad ya found em moog! I really think Lawd is on to something. Lost the magazine to my 7mm-08. Looked everywhere, gun case pockets, my cleaning cabinet, drawers for shooting supplies, couldn't find it. So ordered a new one. A week later, cleaning out the gear bag from coyote hunting, and whata ya know, there it is! Right with the gear I last used that gun for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
