Default Re: Fess Up! 2013 Bloopers and Blunders

Lets see I had two big blunders this yr..

Spring trout season - teachin my 7 yr old how to trout fish, grabbed the wrong fishing vest / without my license and of course that day - game wardens decide to show up. Instead of embarassing myself infront of my seven yr old - decided to walk up to them instead and told them, hey - I dont have my license, came here with my 7 yr old to teach him how to fish and of course - dont want to set the wrong example - he told me he appreciated me coming up to him and just gave a warning..

Now Blunder of all time - woke up Sat AM at my lake to see the main battery in my lund dead and couldnt get it to hold a charge. Now what I should have done, was probably yank the boat out (only takes me 10m to do / and just go down to the boat store 30m away) and have them do it 1 - 2 - 3. Well thats the lesson I learned. Will do that next time.

INSTEAD I decide to do it myself, fried a bunch of F*cking wires and 1100 later - great lesson learned(those gel batteries alone cost 275$ god damn!). Now the fun part was - I fried the wire that brings up my engine and couldnt now tow it off my property becuase of a high spot / I would have just dug my lower unit into the dirt. After 2 hrs from a great friend - he was able to get the engine up.
