Scuba Divers in Moultonborough area

topwater · 06-11-2009, 06:43 PM

During my last Fishing excursion, My Fishing Partner accidently kicked 1 of my rods over board near STATES LANDING, it is in a very small area, in 14-18ft of water. Should be quite easy to find if your down there face to face with the bottom. I have taken my Aqua View camera out there and was unsuccessful in locating it.I would be willing to TRADE a day of fishing, or pay someone $25ish and pay to have your tank filled. My boat is a 21ft Bass boat and very safe. I could meet someone at Lee's Mills Launch and have them over my lost rod in 5 minutes. The worst part is the rod&reel are only worth $150ish, but it is my WIFE'S FAVORITE when she's fishing with me. This is just a shot in the dark request, but you never know!! P.S. the day I lost it was 5-9-09, so there has to be some sediment cover it I would think.

I'm in Tuftonboro, and heading to the Lake this weekend. I *may* or may not be bringing dive gear, as it's a really brief visit. If I do, I'll drop you a PM here this evening.

I would be happy to take a run at finding the fishing rod and subsequently saving your marriage. Can you put a price on love? Yes. Won't speculate on how much...less than a Divorce Lawyer though-maybe.

Just came back tonight from diving 4 days in the CT. River in VT.; Found sweet rod and reel someone lost so I feel your pain-this thing was brand new-so their divorce must be pending. Also 1800's era stone grinding wheel among other artifacts.

I should be diving in the near future your way-have several targets-of-interest with new side-scan unit as well to work. Thanks for giving me a reason to come your way.

Please PM me for my phone number to coordinate meeting to put me in the area.

Did we ever find the fishing rod ?

Absolutely, 1st-try, and by the way Hauns (Diver 1111) is a great guy and was a pleasure to meet. For his efforts he enjoyed a nice dinner and drinks at the Wolfboro Inn, and my wife to this day still uses that rod/reel.
