    Back in the beginning of the fall, maybe October, I got a few nice plugs walking the Moses beaches the morning after a noreaaster.

    Default Urn found by lake

    Ringwood police appeal for Roderick’s relatives to reclaim urn

    Saturday 14th February 2009

    By Chris Yandell

    IT has to be one of the most unusual items of lost property ever handed in.

    An urn containing the ashes of a man who died 17 months ago is awaiting collection at Ringwood police station after being found at nearby Blashford Lakes.
    A walker was enjoying an afternoon stroll at the popular fishing spot yesterday when he made the bizarre discovery.
    An inscription on the side of the metal container says the remains are those of Roderick Nigel Jones, who died on September 2, 2007.

    Now police are urging his next of kin to come forward and retrieve the precious object.
    The urn is in the safe keeping of Ian Hunt, pictured, a former New Forest beat bobby who retired last year and is now a civilian employee at the police station.
    He said: “I don’t think it’s been stolen and can only assume it was left there because Mr Jones either liked fishing or regarded it as one of his favourite places.

    “It’s strange that it’s only just been found. Perhaps someone had it for a while and put it there recently. If it’s not claimed it might be destroyed, which would be a tragedy and certainly not something you’d want for a loved one.”

    I found a beaten up compass. It worked for a few years.

    Yeah, maybe. I would be more inclined to believe you if you had pics.

    Nope, that was not mine (I carry as little as possible), I went there often this past year, think I saw you one morning, if I rememder corectly you said you sometimes take 2 poles, I remember seeing someone with 2 poles one time back there. Around 7 or 8 in the morning (maybe not you because it was light out)

    Monty, that might have me, takin the 2 poles shows you how OCD I really am.
    One night in the fall, I was night fishin with some members here, snapped my rod on the 5th cast. I tried to be an authentic surf guy and was only carrying one rod that night. So, like the goog that I am, had to hoof it back to the vehicle for the spare rod, it was 40 minutes before I was fishin again.

    That's one of the reasons I changed my outlook on VSs and higher end gear. I'll try to change it up the VS and better rod setup as I get the money. In the meantime, I'm the guy with 2 rods, and the goog bucket (sometimes) that says "Googan bucket/effumall" in black magic marker. If ya see that bucket, ya found me.

    I found one Korker on the beach on NJ last year. I did the same thing, pulled it up out of the tide line and left it high and dry on a flat rock thinking its owner might come back.

    A never-opened bottle of Jack Daniels. Still had the seal intact, otherwise I wouldn't have drank it.

    The best I did last year was some empty tampon applicators. Glad I didn't find any hypodermic needles or coney island whitefish, though.

    All kinds of bait were jumping out of the water.

    THOUSANDS of spearing could be seen whenever we turned a light on the water! WHAT A SIGHT!!

    Hooked into something HEAVY, but not fighting.

    When it finally came up, it was the ROD AND REEL that had been pulled out of my boat LAST YEAR!!!

    What are the odds of that?

    It's the one in a million CATCH OF A LIFETIME!!!

    I'm still cleaning up the inlet for all of you...]
    Started out one day with lures. Cast my AVA with green tail a dozen times before the line snapped and i lost it( so i thought). switched to clams and 2 casts later while reeling in to change my bait i pull up onto the beach my AVA with the green tail and 20 yards of my white PP. The best part, i hooked the split ring connecting the hook and lure of the AVA; no joke! wish i had a camera. Don't even remember if i caught fish that day, but i'll never forget hooking MY lure that lost 30 minutes earlier.
