Went sockeye fishing at Lake Whenatchee Wed - Fri & was very windy all three days. Wed @ 3pm my favorite Mathews archery ball cap blew off ( boating) and never found it 2/3rds the way down the lake. We all know how important our " favorite" cap is ! My sweet wife declared Thursday morning that she was going down to the beach & look for my hat as she knew how important it was. Twenty minutes later she was back @ the camper and had my hat in her hand. It was a little sandy but I put it right on.   Side note we caught 5 sockeye Wed & Thurs am. Thursday afternoon & Friday it was to windy to head out. Just sat on the beach watching the 3 ft swells , wearing my cap. Mike

That is one of the best fish stories. Don't think I can top that one.

If you lost it on Wednesday why did it take her all the way until Thursday to go find it for you? 

I am just kidding, congrats on finding it, some people do not understand the importance of having your favorite cap. I retired mine when I left Alaska it now hangs on a set of moose antlers. It had been on every hunt and fishing trip for 7 years. Retired it in 2003. I never once picked it up or wore it since, until 2007 I was tired of going out elk hunting and never getting anything. So 2007 wore my favorite hunting cap, killed my 4x5 opening morning, the wife killed her 3x4 4 days later I then went to Idaho on the 17th and shot my 5x5 on the 18th. Came home and retired it again. Last year seen nothing.....
