........and some of mine too.

Alex, that is a wild story!  So, are you going to tell the charter captain?  And then, who's the owner?  Maybe "finder's keepers, looser's weepers".
Congratlatins to you and Shimano for going a great job.  They should put your story and picture in the next catalog.  Hold out for two new reels from Shimano, one for the finder and one for the keeper.

well, I dont think the charter captain would wanted back and pretty sure that reel didt have sentimental value since it was a loaner reel for the clients; you can add a 3rd new reel on your formula, one more for the story teller 

Awesome story!
I figure that reel just prefers being on the ocean floor for some weird reason...

haha, thats a funny story, that reel had Gender issues, it "felt" itself as fish inside so, it jumped to the sea for freedom.
